all right. that's it. thanks for watching, >> dicky: from hollywood it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight, danny mcbride, from "once upon a time in hollywood," margaret qualley, and music from rascal flatts, and now, on top of that, jimmy kimmel! ♪ [cheers and applause] >> jimmy: welcome. thank you very much. i'm jimmy. i'm the host of the show. thank you for watching. thank you for coming. and thanks for joining us for what is, will be our after the special counsel special tonight. robert mueller testified for like 25 hours today.

this was a major event in washington. bars in washington, d.c. opened very early today to host viewing parties. they started at 8:30 a.m. i know this is interesting, but if you're watching a hearing at a bar at 8:30, you're probably an alcoholic is what's going on. is what i was up early this morning watching with my kids. they needed a break from "paw patrol." i asked my 4-year-old, and she said it was outside her purview and referred me to the report. robert mueller seemed older than i expected. anybody expecting the mueller of dragons was disappointed. this was from the very first questioner and kind of sums it up. >> report did not conclude that he did not commit obstruction of justice. is that correct?

>> that's correct. >> what about total exoneration. did you totally exonerate the president? >> no. >> jimmy: oh, to be an mcnugget on the white house wall when president trump saw that. and ken buck made it clear that trump might need though win in 2020 just to stay out of jail. >> was there sufficient evidence to convict president trump or anyone else with obstruction of justice? >> we did not make that calculation. >> how could you not have made the calculation. >> the olc opinion, office of legal counsel indicates that we cannot indict a sitting president. so one of the tools that a prosecutor would use is not there. >> could you charge the president with a crime after he left office? >> yes. >> you believe that he committed, you could charge the president of the united states with obstruction of justice after he left office? >> yes. >> jimmy: and that's when you could hear melania cheering loudly from down the block. mueller also laid out for those

who may be confused who exactly the russians were backing in 2016. >> did your investigation find that the russian government perceived it would benefit from one of the candidates winning? >> yes. >> and which candidate would that be? >> well, it would be trimp,trimr trump. >> jimmy: i like trimp better. all you can eat trimp. mueller said all along he wouldn't deviate from his report. and he didn't. he deflected or declined to answer questions about 200 times today. they treated him very badly. i know it's a lot, but i want to break it down for you. i know most of you aren't glued to the news. you're at work all day, most of you are on vacation walking around in the heat with your thighs glued together. the president very clearly obstructed the investigation of his campaign ties to russia. the fbi's looking into evidence

that the russians got involved in our presidential election and other president personally tried to stop that investigation. he tried to fire the guy running the investigation. his own white house lawyer, don mcgahn testified to that. the only reason he didn't fire the special counsel is don mcgahn refused to do it. he said he was asked by the president to do crazy [ bleep ]. those were his words. and the president by and through his people tampered with witnesses and lied about it. he welcomed interference into our election and tried to get the people who knew about it to shut up. and our republican representatives in congress know he did that. they just don't care. all they care about is how they'll be received on fox news. they were more interested in attacking robert mueller, who's a war hero, a marine who fought in vietnam. no daddy doctor bone spurs excuse and a life-long

republican. they were more interested in attacking the guy who investigated the foreign enemy meddling than the guy who meddled with the foreign enemy. so here are some of the people who care mothre about their sid winning than they care about this country. this guy. >> what he's doing is not obstructing justice. he is pursuing justice and the fact that you ran it out two years means you perpetuated injustice. >> jimmy: this guy. >> i find those facts, and this entire process un-american. >> jimmy: and this guy. >> the democrats have argued for nearly three years that evidence of collusion is hidden, just around the corner. like the loch ness monster, they insist it's there, even if no one can find it. >> jimmy: what a great analogy. so those guys don't care about the united states. it really was something watching them defend, normally when people fall on their knees for trump like that, he pays them $130,000 afterwards in hush

money, but [ applause ] and tomorrow, tomorrow trump will stroll out onto the white house lawn and call mexicans pinheads or something and we'll all move on. yesterday the president said he might watch a little of the hearings. he of course spent the whole day tweeting about them. he tweeted more than 20 times today, capping the tweet storm off with this, truth is a force of nature. and we all know how much respect he has for nature. so, and then he walked out on the white house lawn afterwards, surprisingly, he was in a very good mood. >> fake news, and you're one of the most. you're fake news. again, you're fake news and you're right at the top of the list also. let me just tell you, go back, it's not what he said. read his correction. read his correction. no, no. a very dumb and very unfair question. that's why people don't deal with you, because you're not an honest reporter. he didn't say that at all. you're untruthful when you ask -- you are untruthful.

and if you were ever truthful, you'd be able to write the truth. >> jimmy: now get off my white house lawn! so i wouldn't want to be an ice cream spoon in the white house tonight. by the way, the president's tv lawyer rudy giuliani was on fox and friends this morning doing a little pre-damage control defending his client and having one of his impersonations. >> obstruction of justice, obstruction of justice. did you decide it? no. >> jimmy: i think he's stealing trump's material. that's like his thing. what is going on with rudy giuliani's hair? i mean, this is today. and this is from a year ago in may. his head got vandalized. is that a bad dye job? or rust.

as all this mueller stuff is going down, right in the middle of the first hearing this is what the first lady was up to. she tweets, christmas planning has begun in the east wing of the white house. i'm looking forward to sharing our final vision for the unique tradition in the coming months. i know they wanted to change the subject today, but they couldn't come up with anything better than christmas? it was 84 degrees in washington today. she's chugging eggnog. maybe after the testimony you just want people to know they're still planning to be in the white house come december. overall, it was a tumultuous day. the good news, though, is that today is national tequila day. and man, [cheers and applause] if there was ever a day we needed it -- happy birthday, guillermo. >> thanks, jimmy! >> jimmy: have you been celebrating? >> of course. >> jimmy: did you know it was national takeilequila day?

>> of course. >> jimmy: do you take selfies? do you ever do that? take pictures of yourself? >> myself? sometimes, yeah. >> jimmy: do you really? why. >> just for fun. >> jimmy: for fun. and then you look at it? >> yeah, to see and say oh, wow, i am fat. >> jimmy: i would not have guessed that you do that kind of thing, but a lot of people like to take selfies, i guess it's a natural thing, but older people don't, you know, everybody's been doing this face app thing where you get to see what you look like in like 80 years or whatever. we thought it would be fun to go to the farmer's market here in los angeles and talk to some actual senior citizens to put them to the test to see if they know how to take a selfie. ♪ >> do you know what a selfie is? >> selfie? >> do you take selfies? >> never. >> i don't do that. >> i am too busy with my life as it is to add that to it.

>> try to take a selfie now. >> okay. camera. okay. i'm now pressing the selfie button. i'm now seeing my face. i'm now taking a picture. and bob's your uncle. >> that's me. >> that's me. >> i'm getting a pink, i guess it's a pink screen. >> but if i turn it this way, can i take it? it's still going to be backwards. for me. i can't see that i'm in it. >> hi. >> i don't think it's a video, so you don't have to talk. >> what? >> you took a selfie, congratulations. how do you feel about your accomplishment? >> oh, i'm thrilled. i'm thrilled. >> push that button in the middle on the bottom.

>> i did. >> congratulations. try to use some of the filters they have. >> no. no. oh, gosh. no. no. i don't think there's any good one here. >> what do you think about these? >> a variety of pointless and tasteless pictures with cartoon kind of, butterflies over my head. here's -- >> a moving, reverse wig over my face. >> what is the point of this whole thing, do you what's the purpose? >> i can't imagine what the purpose of this is. it's not amusing to me. it's sort of boring and pointless. >> there you go. we're going to give you a bumper sticker. ask me about my selfie. maybe you could put it on your walker. >> i could, but i won't. >> is this the greatest accomplishment of your life? >> i think getting my doctorate in mathematics was a little more

great than this. [ applause ] >> now is that the greatest accomplishment of your life? >> no, i don't think so. >> well, what was the greatest accomplishment? >> getting married. >> getting married. >> she's dead. >> look at me, i just took a selfie. i just took a selfie. i just did a selfie. >> jimmy: it's an important life skill. hey, we got a great show for you tonight. music from rascal flatts, margaret qualley is here and we'll be right back with danny mcbride. so stick around. ♪ abc's jimmy kimmel live, brought to you by sprint. ork. the nation's largest and most reliable network. the best network is even better? best, fastest, best. enough. sprint's doing things differently.

while. this guy pulls up. we are cruising, making small talk. it's going well, then i start asking him questions, what are we going to the beach or something? oh, no, we're not going to the beach. we're going an hour inland that used to be under the ocean, these are ancient sharks. oh, like megalodons. oh, yeah. how do you know how to find them? there's these sand quarries out here, and you can find them in the bottom of those. so you know the guys who own the sand quarry? oh, no, we're breaking into this place. oh, i didn't know this was going to be a trespassing situation. but i was trying to make a good impression with this guy, so i didn't want to appear to be afraid. so we get there and i'm kinding to ask questions and not be nervous, like, so they got security, cops? what are we getting into here? oh, yeah, there's definitely security. so just turn your headlamp off

and run if you see anybody. >> jimmy: what? >> so this is the plan. so we get there, and there's a big fence, and of course it's locked and i'm ready to peace out. all right, it's locked, we tried. we tried to get the shark's teeth, and they thwarted us, and that wasn't it. we climbed the fence. it had been a while since i climbed a chain link fence. one that's taller. and after about 20 minutes i got over the fence. and we got in there, and i got to admit it was actually pretty amazing. we were like scavenging around this place in the dark. and we did find a ton of megalodon shark's teeth, and i stole them and took them home. joim y >> jimmy: you did, how big are they? >> they're like this big. and it became a big hobby of mine to break into sand quarries and steal shark's teeth. >> jimmy: do you display them? >> i have a big jar.

i almost got busted. >> jimmy: do any of your hollywood friends come visit you in charleston? >> yes, a bunch have come down. i had a pretty interesting guest shortly after we moved there. one day i got a phone call out of nowhere and the voice sounded familiar but i wasn't sure who it was, and i was like, hello? hey, danny there? yeah, this is kanye west. is it really? i thought it was a joke. he basically said he was a fan of mine and wanted to come hang out. >> jimmy: how did he get your phone number? >> kanye has his ways, i guess. no clue. >> jimmy: he wanted to come hang out? >> he wanted to come hang out. i think he thought i lived in los angeles, and i was like, i live in charleston, he was quiet a moment and was like, okay,ki i can go there too. i'm being set up with another dude and i'm getting nervous. what does kanye like to do? what should i wear? i'm always worried about what to wear. >> jimmy: he's coming to see

you? >> he had an idea for a project which i think is a pretty brilliant idea. >> jimmy: did he say what it was? >> he wanted to do a story of his life and me to play him. >> jimmy: oh, wow.

>> jimmy: are you sure this happened? because you've done drugs, right? >> i have. >> jimmy: you have. are you 100%, have you spoken to your son afterwards? >> it was like a dream. we both saw it. >> jimmy: he saw it, too. >> yep. >> jimmy: this is unbelievable. >> so you move to charleston and a lot of good things start happening. >> jimmy: no kidding. that's super crazy in every way, even just going out on a boat with kanye is weird. who decided to go out on the boat? >> that was my idea. we should take him out. when he showed up he was wearing, it was the middle of the summer, it's pretty hot in charleston. he was wearing a heavy-duty sweatshirt and sweat pants, and we were going to go out, and i'm like, it's pretty hot out there, and he's hnah, i'm fine. and he's dripping sweat,

assistant said it's going to be cold here. no, it's charleston in july. >> jimmy: but he's probably too shy to want to wear your clothes. holy moly. i'd love to play kim kardashian on sit your kanye. >> i thought that would be a good move. that'd be good. >> jimmy: if you can play him, i could play her, right? >> that's a good move. joil. >> jimmy: we'll hash it out after the show. the show is "the righteous gemstones". we'll have a look at that when we come back. we'll be right back. >> dicky: portions of jimmy kimmel live are brought to you by the new porsche macan.

first. you should have said hey, we'll move here. >> we wanted to put our money where our mouth was and prove we were there for the long haul. but we sat down with mcmasters, and he's looking at us, everybody's taking photos. he looked at me like why are they wasting my time with these three idiots. >> jimmy: we brought john goodman to you, what more do you want? the show is great, i'm glad you got another one. it's on hbo once again, called "the righteous gemstones "danny mcbride. we'll be right back with margar margar margaret.

>> they told me right away that i didn't have the part. >> jimmy: what do you mean? >> i auditioned thinking mm, no thank you. then i went on with my life. and then actually, it was funny, okay, so my dad lives in panama. >> jimmy: oh, okay. >> yeah. >> jimmy: that's far away. >> it is far away. he's actually here tonight. >> jimmy: oh, all right, well, now he's close. >> but he was trying to get me and my sister to come out and visit him and trying to encourage us, he was like, well, book a ticket to panama, and you'll get a quentin tarantino movie, because you know how if you make a vacation it gets in the way and you can't take a vacation. >> jimmy: so he was playing that thing, go do that and something else will draw you away. >> and it happened. >> jimmy: did he know you were auditioning? >> he had no idea there was a quentin tarantino movie happening at all.

>> jimmy: so he has magic powers. >> yeah, i think so. >> jimmy: is that why he was forced to move to panama? why does your father live in panama? >> you know. >> jimmy: what does he do there? >> right now he's building a house there. he builds houses over the course of, it takes a long time, because he does did by himself. >> jimmy: what? really. see, now what would help is if he had other workers. >> i suggested that. >> jimmy: and no, he likes to do it himself. >> he does it himself and lives on site while he's doing it and ends up making these really amazing houses but in the process he lives without electricity or running water. >> jimmy: oh, really? so when you come to visit him, do you not have electricity or running water? >> that's correct. yeah. >> jimmy: oh, that makes sense as to why he had to convince you guys to come out. >> no, well, you know, ultimately it is amazing. it is super.

>> jimmy: sounds great. >> it was fun when i was a kid. >> jimmy: see, the electricity i could maybe do without. the running water part seems necessary. >> there's a hose, but, you know. >> jimmy: that's running water, isn't it? so there is some running water, all right. he's got a hose. >> yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. >> jimmy: the kids must have loved to come over to your place. they got a hose at the qualleys. so dad is building houses, and then will he sell the house to someone or he stays and goes on to the next project? >> he either rents it out or sells it, but he does kind of get bored of it and moves, he did the same, i grew up in north carolina. he did that in north carolina and then when i was 14 he went to panama. >> jimmy: he sounds like an interesting character. >> very. >> jimmy: i would think so. was he, like was he a disciplinarian for you growing up or was he pretty easygoing? >> the latter. >> jimmy: sounds pretty easy

going. anybody drinking out of a hose, how hard core could they be. sorry, dad, i don't know where you are, but i apologize for that. so you're in this movie, as your dad kind of predicted in a weird way. >> yeah. >> jimmy: and all of your scenes, pretty much, are with brad pitt. and he's, you've seen his work. >> brad. >> jimmy: very popular. >> yeah. >> jimmy: is that intimidating to you? does that feel odd? to be in a car with brad pitt? >> super strange, yes. really crazy and really, really cool and -- >> jimmy: is he really driving the car when you have the feet on the window? >> yeah, i mean, they shut down i-10 kind informof in a really part in both sides and i was just sitting there by brad pitt doing a quentin tarantino movie. the weirdest part is on the way back, after the scene and we're taking the highway back and i'm

just sitting there with brad pitt. >> jimmy: it's like you're a uber driver. >> he's driving. and it's cool. >> jimmy: you play, i think we can say you play a member of the manson family. >> i do. >> jimmy: a hippie. is that your real armpit hair or little wigs? real armpit hair. >> no, i guess i can really grow it. >> jimmy: how long did it take to get it fully out. >> i started a couple weeks before shooting but it was a long shooting process and by the end i really had some. >> jimmy: you had it go being. do you shampoo that and condition? or do you just, a bar of soap? >> i just did the soap thing. >> jimmy: just the soap. >> maybe i should have conditioned. >> jimmy: maybe if there's a sequel. >> i'll think about that next time. no, i mean, it's definitely a

cool look that people do, but i was eager to. >> jimmy: oh, you wanted to get rid of it. >> i was ready. >> jimmy: so did you shave it off immediately? >> i did. i was really excited when we wrapped. i think i got a wax you and it was very painful. but i was really looking forward to it. >> jimmy: why did you get it waxed? i really want this gone like to the root? >> i've never done that, let's see what happens here, it's very smooth. >> jimmy: so you walk into the waxing place and you're like, hey, check this out? >> yeah. >> jimmy: and they're like, ah! >> let's do this now. >> jimmy: how about that. wow, you know, the sacrifices that actors make for their craft i don't think are fully appreciated. well, that, you did a great job in the movie, and the movie's terrific. you're happy with it, i assume, yes? >> i'm just happy i'm in there, so yeah. >> jimmy: margaret qualley.
