Trump MELTS DOWN Over “Horrible” Jimmy Kimmel — Gets Fake Award HUMILIATION as Jimmy Announces Major Show Renewal
In a recent episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, host Jimmy Kimmel responded to former President Donald Trump’s scathing remarks about him while also announcing the renewal of his show for another year. The segment highlighted Trump’s antics surrounding the Kennedy Center Honors, where he served as host, and included his receipt of a dubious award, the inaugural FIFA Peace Prize.
Trump’s Criticism of Kimmel
During his hosting stint at the Kennedy Center Honors, Trump took aim at Kimmel, calling him a “horrible” host. Trump boasted about his role as the first president to host the prestigious event, questioning why no other president had done so before. Kimmel humorously noted that Trump seemed fixated on him, joking, “I’m starting to think he might have a crush on me.” Kimmel then challenged Trump to a talent competition, playfully suggesting that he could showcase his own skills while Trump could demonstrate his infamous golf swings and other antics.
The Kennedy Center Honors
Trump claimed to be “98% involved” in selecting this year’s honorees, which included notable figures like George Strait, Gloria Gaynor, and the band KISS. Kimmel quipped about the absurdity of Trump’s involvement, pointing out that he might not even recognize many of the individuals he pardoned earlier that month. The segment included a comedic take on Trump’s obsession with marble renovations at the Kennedy Center, with Kimmel mocking Trump’s rambling descriptions of the venue’s improvements.
The FIFA Peace Prize
In a bizarre twist, Trump received the first-ever FIFA Peace Prize, a move that Kimmel described as a desperate attempt by FIFA to appease him after he threatened to relocate the World Cup. Kimmel characterized the award as meaningless, akin to NASCAR giving out Peabody Awards, and noted that Trump seemed to relish the recognition despite its dubious nature. The trophy itself was portrayed as an embarrassing symbol, with Kimmel likening the situation to a child bragging about a participation trophy.
Military Controversies and Political Drama
As the segment continued, Kimmel shifted focus to ongoing political issues, including Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s reluctance to release video footage of a controversial military strike that resulted in civilian casualties. Kimmel criticized Hegseth for his lack of transparency and accountability, highlighting the gravity of the situation and the need for public access to the footage.
Trump’s contradictory statements about releasing the video added to the chaos, as he initially supported its release but later denied making that commitment. Kimmel used this moment to underscore the inconsistency and bluster typical of Trump’s responses to accountability.
Hollywood and Business News
In a lighter vein, Kimmel discussed Netflix’s recent acquisition of Warner Brothers for $82.7 billion, framing it as a significant development in Hollywood. He humorously speculated about Trump’s potential involvement in the merger, suggesting that Trump might be accepting bribes to influence the deal.
Kimmel also addressed Trump’s frustration with Marjorie Taylor Greene’s negative comments about him during a recent interview on 60 Minutes, further illustrating the ongoing drama within the GOP.
Kimmel’s Show Renewal
In a celebratory tone, Kimmel announced that his show had been renewed until May 2027. He expressed gratitude to his audience and colleagues, humorously reflecting on the ups and downs of working in television. Kimmel’s self-deprecating humor shone through as he recounted a past karaoke mishap, promising to make amends in the future.
Conclusion
The segment encapsulated the ongoing tension between Trump and Kimmel, marked by humor, political commentary, and the absurdities of celebrity culture. Kimmel’s ability to blend satire with serious topics resonated with viewers, showcasing his role as a critical voice in the current political landscape. As Kimmel prepares for another year on air, audiences can expect more sharp wit and insightful commentary on the ever-evolving world of politics and entertainment.
