Jimmy Kimmel Fires Back At Donald Trump Over Campaign Comments

Donald Trump is currently speaking at several rallies as he continues to co-sign conservative candidates in light of the midterm elections. The former president, who is known to always speak his mind, shared a few words directed at Jimmy Kimmel and his late-night show during his most recent stop in Pennsylvania. “I saw Jimmy Kimmel said that his show is practically dead because nobody that likes Trump will watch. And guess what? That turned out to be a majority of the people. The show is dead,” he said in a clip aired on “Jimmy Kimmel Live.” 

“Our show is so dead he’s gonna bury it next to his ex-wife at one of his golf courses,” Kimmel said on his show. “You know what’s dead? I’ll tell you what’s dead. All those endangered animals your chinless son shot,” he continued. “That’s what’s dead.” The Emmy-winning host also brought Melania Trump into the drama. “You know what’s dead? The look in your wife’s eyes when you beg her for sex on your birthday,” he added.

Despite Trump’s claims that the show’s ratings have tanked, “Jimmy Kimmel Live” — which first aired in 2003 — is “ABC’s longest-running late-night talk show,” according to PBS. In January 2023, Kimmel will mark two decades on air.
