Trump has brutal message for Jimmy Kimmel and ABC ‘fake news’ after presenter blasted president
The ongoing feud between Donald Trump and Jimmy Kimmel shows no signs of slowing down, with both continuing to publicly trade jabs.
Kimmel faced backlash in September after making controversial comments about the late Charlie Kirk and criticizing Trump’s reaction to his death.
He accused the MAGA movement of politicizing the tragedy and mocked Trump for discussing White House renovations instead of expressing condolences.
Kimmel’s remarks led to his show being temporarily suspended, a move Trump praised. The decision, however, sparked widespread public backlash and the show was soon reinstated.
Despite the previous drama, Kimmel has continued to satirize Trump, including mocking the president over not winning a Nobel Peace Prize he believed he deserved.
Recently, Kimmel commented on Trump calling a female reporter “piggy,” saying the president “loses his mind” over Jeffrey Epstein questions and highlighting how inappropriate the remark would be in a professional setting. Trump responded angrily on Truth Social, attacking Kimmel’s talent and TV ratings, and demanding he be removed from the air.
While Trump has not publicly addressed the “piggy” incident further, the White House stated the reporter behaved unprofessionally and suggested she should be able to handle criticism, implying the feud with Kimmel is unlikely to escalate into any official action.
