Donald Trump’s famous opponent Jimmy Kimmel kicked off last night’s episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live by packing his bags to “leave the country,” admitting that he can’t stay for another four years. “You heard him,” Kimmel said. “He said he has a list of enemies. Do you think I’m not on that list?”
Kimmel quickly became more serious about the results of the presidential election, telling the late-night audience that he wasn’t sure what to say in response. “Let me tell you, this was the worst Taco Tuesday of my entire life,” he said. “We had a choice between an attorney general and a criminal, and we chose the criminal to be president of the United States. More than half of this country voted for the criminal who plans to pardon his crimes. I believe this election was not rigged.”
Later, Kimmel acknowledged all the people who were influenced to choose Trump over Democratic candidate Kamala Harris.
Holding back tears, he said: “It was a terrible night for women and children and the hundreds of thousands of hard-working immigrants who made this country go,” he said, holding back tears. “For health care, for our climate, for scientists, for journalism, for justice, for free speech. It was a terrible night for the poor, for the middle class, for seniors who rely on Social Security, for our allies in Ukraine, for NATO, for truth, for democracy, for decency. It was a terrible night for everyone who voted against him, and guess what, it was a bad night for everyone who voted for him too, but you haven’t realized it yet.”
He added that it was a good night for Putin and polio, as well as “beloved billionaires like Elon Musk and his Silicon Valley brethren and all the glittering brainworms who sold the rest of their souls to bow down to Donald Trump. “
Kimmel ended his monologue on a more upbeat note. “I’m going to say something that Trump will never say unless it’s in his favor,” the host said. “The people voted and that’s the choice we made. In January, Donald Trump became president, and he won. That doesn’t mean we give up, but it also doesn’t mean we storm the Capitol because we don’t like the outcome.”
“And I know a lot of people want to hear something positive. I’ve been trying to come up with something positive. The best I can come up with is that we’ve been through this once before, and yes, this time it might be worse, maybe much worse, but I also think we might look back and realize that in the long run running, that’s what we needed to wake us up. Maybe the people who care about him so much need to realize how little he cares about them.
