Jimmy Kimmel's 19 minute anti-Trump rant backfires with viewers

Jimmy Kimmel's attempt to sway Republicans with a 19 minute anti-Trump monologue has backfired with viewers.

The talk show host delivered a special plea to those thinking of voting for the former president, in which he promised to avoid, 'liberal virtue signaling'.

But the almost 20 minute rant ended up irritating some viewers so much they pledged to vote Trump anyway, just to spite Kimmel.

The comedian used clips from the former president's speeches, interviews and rallies to try and illustrate several aspects he believes make Trump unfit to lead.

'Am I biased against Donald Trump? Yes,' Kimmel admitted. 'Do I think I have good reasons for being biased against him? Yes.

'And I'm probably wrong, but I think when you hear some of those reasons, you might agree with me, even just a little bit.'

However, many viewers were left alienated by Kimmel's sermonizing, with some even suggesting they were now voting Trump to spite him.

'I was on the fence, but since Hollywood elites like Jimmy Kimmel are supporting Harris, I’ll cast a vote for Trump,' one person wrote.

'Kimmel fell off and has gone woke,' another added.

''Remember when Johnny Carson and Jay Leno were hosts and it was all about class and entertainment? Jimmy is a clown,' one person wrote.

'All this MF does is every flipping night! Rip off on Trump. Do you have any other material? Yikes. Switch channels,' one viewer fumed.

The segment saw Kimmel attack Trump over his 'concepts of a plan' for healthcare, his obsession with transgender children and his Chinese-made 'God Bless the USA' Bible.

'Now those Bibles weren't even made in the USA they were made in China,' Kimmel joked. 'That's how tough he is on China, he forces them to make his Bibles for him.'

Kimmel was threatened after his “Winners Aren’t Losers” book segment.

He is simply doing what he’s told.

The only thing he cares about is him and that camera.

Stopped reading right there. Viewers?!?! He has viewers. Yah, maybe if “the Man Show” re-runs. I wonder if he was crying during this rant.

I can never keep Kimmel and Fallon straight. I don’t watch either, so to me they look the same, sound the same, have the same views, etc...

Pres. Biden tonight: “The only garbage I see floating out there is his (Trumps) supporters”

Pres. Biden tonight:

“Donald Trump has no character. He doesn’t give a damn about the Latino community…just the other day, a speaker at his rally called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage?…The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters.”

The whole demonrat party is nothing but garbage. I mean, garbage is what perfectly describes the party of slavery, segregation, the trail of tears, the Indian wars, Dred Scott, Jim Crow, the kkk and Japanese internment camps.

Oh they say I’m garbage and that’s okay,
I’d rather be a deplorable than vote their way!
My conscience clean,
Not seared and burnt,
Not bent double for perverts,
I don’t care for murder of innocent,
And being Godwin’s Stepchild!
Oh they say I’m garbage and that’s okay,
I’d rather be a deplorable than vote their way!

(To the tune of the Lumberjack Song)

19 minutes of “Trump bad” with zero minutes of “Kamala good.” We got the hidden message, Jimmy...

Why is this not covered by the Federal Election Laws as a campaign contribution? 19 minutes of airtime must be worth a pretty penny...................

The Democrats are unraveling because they can feel the giant Harris/Walz loss. They are in fight or flight (cortisol) overload.

I'm not saying they will lose...it's anyone's guess at this point. But the Democrats are going nuts, from Biden down, because they believe Trump is going to win.

I hope their panic is justified.

Which is more than what we can all say for Kimmel or Stephen Colbert and Seth Meyers for that matter.

Probably lots. I’ll bet he was one of the clients of Jeffrey Epstein too.

Check out this 7 minutes of Terri Garr on Johnny Carson, especially about 2 minutes in as the other guests join in, show biz Americans used to know how to have some fun.
