Anthony Anderson found one very obvious problem with President Donald Trump’s reported escape plan.
Guest-hosting Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Anderson opened his August 11 monologue with the story of Trump’s covert aircraft switch after a recent NATO summit in Turkey.
“Just when you think you’ve heard every dumb thing there is to know about this president, he always finds a way to surprise you,” he said.
The Catering-Truck Problem

Anthony Anderson joked that a catering truck was an obvious place to search for Donald Trump.
“Apparently, after the NATO summit last month, Trump hid inside a catering cart to sneak out of Turkey due to security threats,” Anderson explained, referring to recent reporting from The Washington Post.
“Now, I’m no security expert, but if I was trying to find Donald Trump, a catering truck is the first place I’d look,” Anderson joked. “Next time, hide his a-- in a bookmobile.”
A Presidential Switcheroo

The comedian described the reported aircraft switch following the NATO summit.
The aircraft mystery had already drawn attention across social media, and the catering truck, normally used to load food and supplies onto aircraft, became a detail late-night hosts could not ignore.
“According to The Washington Post, Trump boarded the older Air Force One in front of the cameras, waving from the stairs, and then slipped out a door on the other side of the plane into an airport catering truck, which then drove him to a smaller military jet,” Anderson elaborated.

The late-night host turned Donald Trump’s reported security maneuver into a comedy routine.
“That’s the same way he used to get on Epstein’s plane,” he added.
And he didn’t forget the agents tasked with pulling it off.

Anthony Anderson poked fun at the Secret Service over the reported escape plan.
“Let’s give it up to the Secret Service,” he said. “Do you know how hard it is to sneak a pig out of Turkey?”
