Kimmel Mocks Trump's 861 Posts and Late-Night Threats as Feud With Hosts Deepens
3 articles · Updated · The Guardian · Jun 3
Summary
Jimmy Kimmel used his latest monologue to target Donald Trump’s online barrage, saying the president posted 861 times last month while still finding time to threaten “limping” late-night hosts.
The comments expanded Kimmel’s response to Trump’s latest attack on talk shows after Trump suggested hosts could follow Stephen Colbert, with Kimmel again ridiculing Trump’s appearance and priorities.
Kimmel tied the fresh broadside to his recent Peabody win and mocked Trump’s repeated medical checkups, while also joking that the Iran war was continuing despite administration claims it was over.
Seth Meyers echoed the criticism on Late Night, linking Trump’s Iran stance to higher gas prices and mocking plans for a Penn Station renovation that could carry Trump’s name.
