Trump has brutal message for Jimmy Kimmel and ABC ‘fake news’ after presenter blasted president
The public feud between Donald Trump and late-night host Jimmy Kimmel shows no signs of stopping. The conflict has escalated through a series of personal attacks and controversial remarks.
Kimmel recently criticized Trump for his behavior toward a female reporter. He specifically referenced an incident where Trump reportedly called the journalist “piggy.”
Commenting on the event, Kimmel noted the remark “barely made the news.” He suggested that such language would be considered extreme in any other context.
Trump quickly responded to Kimmel’s monologue on his Truth Social platform. In a furious post, he questioned why ABC continues to employ a host with “NO TALENT.”
Trump also complained about Kimmel’s “VERY POOR TELEVISION RATINGS” and called for the network to “Get the bum off the air!!!”
This is not the first time Kimmel’s criticism has provoked Trump. A previous controversial monologue by Kimmel led to his show being temporarily suspended, a move Trump applauded.
Despite the pressure, it is considered unlikely that ABC will remove Kimmel. The network previously reinstated him after a prior suspension sparked a significant public backlash.
