Wallace made the remark whereas jokingly naming himself as a possible presidential candidate as he chatted with fellow panel members Abby Phillip, Alyssa Farah-Griffin, Melik Abdul and Jay Michaelson.

“Donald Trump is not a comedian. Donald Trump, let me tell you what Donald Trump is. Donald Trump is a BS-er, OK. You know why I know he’s a BS-er? That’s what I do,” Wallace countered. “I specialize in it. All BS-ers know each other. You know, we don’t know each other, but we know each other, you know?”
Wallace then defined why “comedians are against Trump.”
“I’m a New Yorker. All New Yorkers know a BS-er. We know this stuff. You know that’s what we do,” he added. “Ask a comedian, 98% of the comedians are against Trump because they don’t want that, all that hatred…”
