Jelly Roll Doubles Down On Savage Attack Against Donald Trump
Daily Caller ^ | August 27, 2026 | Leena Nasir - Entertainment Reporter

Just one day after calling President Donald Trump a “fat pig,” Jelly Roll doubled down on his remarks.

The famous singer stepped in as guest host of Tuesday’s episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live” and refused to back down amid backlash over comments he made Monday on the very same stage.

“Now, let’s be honest for a second. Any U.S. president should be able to handle a few jokes, right?” he told the audience, Tuesday.

Determined not to walk back his stance, Jelly Roll continued.

“They should also be able to handle gas prices, healthcare, and the occasional international conflict, but beggars can’t be choosers.”

Trump supporters were angered when the country music star took aim at Trump’s weight and appearance, Monday.

Making reference to his 300-pound weight loss, Jelly Roll said, “That means I’ve lost an entire Donald Trump.”

“And let’s be honest, based on his approval ratings, it seems like most of the country wants to do the same thing,” he said.

Then he unleashed on the president by adding, “From one fat pig to another, take it from me that physical fitness is very important. Trust me, you’ll be happy to see your penis again.”

Trump supporters immediately lashed out at the artist, but when he took the stage again Wednesday night, he dug his heels in and continued mocking the president.

He acknowledged the backlash, and noted that many people were upset “that I didn’t treat the president with reverence and dignity,” but he didn’t walk the comments back.

Asserting his position, Jelly Roll said, “But I want to remind y’all that I go by the name Jelly Roll. I don’t even treat myself with reverence and dignity.”

“Most people were just surprised that I had any opinions at all,” he quipped.

Jelly Roll leaned into the remarks people were making about him online after he attacked the president.

“They see a guy that looks like me and assume the only opinion I have is whether I prefer my meth crystal or classic,” he said. (RELATED: Tom Selleck Sparks Internet Firestorm With Donald Trump Comments)

He directed a comment to those who “are mad at me for goofing on Trump — they should have voted for Kamala Harris so he could make jokes about her instead.”

Social media continues to erupt with Trump supporters slamming Jelly Roll for being a “traitor,” but he doesn’t seem to be bothered by it at all.

Did Jelly Roll pick up the crack pipe again? I thought he was sober.

I don’t follow stuff these days so I have no idea who Jelly Roll is. I’ve heard of Jelly Roll Morton the Blues and Jazz artist but he died in 1941 so there is that at least.

Some people support Trump when he makes fun of people. These same people do not like it when people make fun of him. They are hypocrites. Trump is a hypocrite too. Ok for him to insult people, but it is not ok for people to insult him.

It never ceases to amaze me how Actors, Athletes, and business people feel the need to opine publicly. You almost always lose half of your audience.... for what?

Actors: Shut up and act.
Athletes: Shut up and play.
Businesses: Shut up and focus on business.

Politicians: Shut up and represent America and your American citizens and the safety of legal visitors and those actively and properly working through the legalization process.

He got weak minded fools to think about him, and if they ever heard of him, remember him in some way. I would say he accomplished his mission. He probably voted for Trump.

The famous singer...

So famous I've never heard of him.

I know who Jelly Roll Morton is, but not this guy.

Lib media act as if every country singer is MAGA when that couldn’t be further from the truth. Take a trip to Nashville and youll see. This man certainly just cost himself alot of fans for nothing though. Good job.

Back in the Golden Era of Hollywood, when actors were ‘under contract’ to the big studios, they could not make any public statements without the approval of the studio PR department.

Sam Goldwyn and the others knew that if you made any political statement on any subject half your audience, and hence your paying customers, would disappear overnight.

It seems that these modern era artists, actors and various celebrities have forgotten that ....................
