After a tense post-dinner moment Jimmy Kimmel unleashes a brutal nickname that has Trump fuming.NH
Jimmy Kimmel unleashed a scathing attack on Donald Trump, even calling the president a “dumb dumb” after his White House dinner event.
During the most recent Jimmy Kimmel Live! episode, the host tore into the president’s apparent Fox News fixation, claiming the network is swaying the president’s choices. He stated: “According to the Daily Beast, Donald Trump’s inner circle is becoming increasingly fearful of the impact what he sees on Fox News is having on his decision making.

“Trump officials became concerned when Trump asked if he could get a reverse mortgage on the White House and one of those Terry Bradshaw walk in tubs.” Kimmel’s remarks followed South Park’s latest dig at the president’s masculinity, reports the Irish Star.
Kimmel went on: “A few weeks ago there were reports that the reason Trump wanted to send the National Guard into Portland is because he saw Fox footage of unrest from 2020 and he thought it was happening in real time and he still might think that’s happening in real time because in an interview with NBC, he said that the governor of Oregon informed him there was no security threat in her state.
He said: ‘Well, wait a minute, am I watching things on television that are different from what’s happening?'”
Delivering a savage moniker for the president, Kimmel shot back: “Yes dumb dumb, you are. You’re on a five-year delay from the rest of us.”
After a round of applause from the audience, Kimmel went on to say: “I mean, it’s no joke and Trump’s inner circle knows just how dangerous the incessant misinformation from Fox News can be because they all worked there 10 months ago. It is frightening to know the president of the United States is being briefed on world events by the same source as everyone at the Dallas Fort Worth Airport Chili’s to go.
“One thing you can say about Donald Trump though, he has a vivid imagination. He has created a dangerous organization to get the old people excited and fired up, a supervillain called ANTIFA, and the reason we know ANTIFA is organized against the government is because their matching signs indicate they are somehow in league with Kinkos.”
A clip was then shown of Pam Bondi on Fox News as she said: “You’re seeing people out there with thousands of signs, all match, pre-bought, pre-put-together. They’re organized and someone is funding it.
“We’re going to get to the funding of ANTIFA, we’re going to get to the root of ANTIFA and we are going to find and charge all of those people who are causing this chaos in Portland and all these other cities across out country.”
Once the clip wrapped up, Kimmel impersonated Bondi and declared: “And if we can’t find them, we’re going to pretend we did,” drawing laughter from the crowd.
Kimmel went on: “ANTIFA is just short for anti-fascist, it’s not a club you can join, there are no membership dues. But they have matching signs.
“Okay, they I guess we better round up these domestic terrorists too,” he remarked, before displaying a photo of a Trump rally.
The host went on: “Listen, I’m gonna tell you this, spread it around, there is no chaos in Portland. None. There is no chaos in Chicago, there was no chaos in Los Angeles.
“They’re pretending there’s chaos as a pretense for a military takeover. But I’m open minded, if there is chaos in these cities Trump calls hell holes, let’s see it and decide if something needs to be done about it. So, we put out the word, we ask those of you living in them to show us your hell holes and before I share this, I wanna warn you this is not for the faint of heart.”
A segment then aired featuring the Chicago marathon, with a Kimmel supporter jokingly claiming the runners were “running for their lives.”
Another segment featured street performers who were mockingly labeled “radical” musicians.
Kimmel quipped: “I don’t even recognize this country anymore.”
A segment from the program was posted on the Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Instagram account with the message: “Fox News has quite a grip on Donald Trump!” Kimmel received praise from fans for his remarks. One fan wrote, “Jimmy, you are GREAT! Just seeing you come up on my feed makes me smile.”
Another viewer encouraged: “I love Jimmy! ! Stay on the necks Jimmy,” while a third chimed in with, “Ha love it,” as other viewers responded with rows of crying laughing emojis.
