The Watch Brooklyn NinePresident got not one, but two shout-outs in Mindy Kaling's recent Dartmouth commencement speech. We doubt he'll be particularly pleased with either, though.
SEE ALSO: Here are the 2 words that got Robert De Niro bleeped out at the TonysOn Sunday, the Ocean's 8star took to the stage in front of a sea of graduates to speak for 17 minutes on a number of different topics.
It wasn't too long before Donald Trump's name came up.
"You're graduating into a world where it seems like everything is falling apart," said Kaling. "Trust in institutions are at an all-time low, the truth doesn't seem to matter anymore, and for all I know the President just tweeted us into a war with Wakanda, a country that doesn't exist."
Kaling went on to tell the graduates that they're being relied on to rebuild a world that "we have toppled like a Jenga tower" — before offering some advice on how to do that in such unstable times.
"I'll tell you my secret, the one thing that has kept me going through the years, my superpower: Delusion," she said. "This is something I may share with our President, a fact that is both horrifying, and interesting.
"Two years in, I think we can pretty safely say that he's not getting carved onto Mount Rushmore. But, damn, if that is not a testament to how far you can get by just by believing that you are the smartest, most successful person in the world."
Following the mentions of the President, Kaling ended on a more upbeat note.
