Jimmy Kimmel Stops the Oscars to Fire Back at Donald Trump, Who Slammed the Show as ‘Boring’: ‘Isn’t It Past Your Jail Time?’
Variety ^ | 3/10/24 | Zach Sharf

Posted on 03/10/2024 7:52:33 PM PDT by DallasBiff

Jimmy Kimmel took a moment during the Oscars telecast right before Al Pacino took the stage to present best picture to “Oppenheimer” to read aloud Donald Trump‘s latest social media post that bashed Kimmel as this year’s Oscars host.

“Has there EVER been a WORSE HOST than Jimmy Kimmel at The Oscars,” Trump asked his followers. “His opening was that of a less than average person trying too hard to be something which he is not, and never can be. Get rid of Kimmel and perhaps replace him with another washed up, but cheap, ABC ‘talent,’ George Slopanopoulos. He would make everybody on stage look bigger, stronger, and more glamorous.”

“Also a really bad politically correct show tonight, and for years – Disjointed, boring, and very unfair,” Trump continued. “Why don’t they just give the Oscars to those that deserve them. Maybe that way their audience and TV ratings will come back from the depths. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

Kimmel fired back at Trump by saying, “Blah, blah, blah…Okay, now, see if you can guess which former president just posted that on RruthSsocial. Anyone? No? Well, thank you, President Trump. Thank you for watching, I’m surprised you’re still — isn’t it past your jail time?”

President Trump....”Don’t wrestle with pigs in the mud. You will just get dirty and end up smelling like a pig pen”.

Jimmy is so disappointed. And he'll continue to be disappointed when Trump gets reelected.

Jimmy has been a huge disappointment for ABC, but they have to keep him on because of his anti-Trump rants, otherwise, he would have been gone years ago.

Did Kimmel show up at the Oscars in blackface? And why not? Since he’s a liberal there are no consequences.

Yes, that’s him. In both pictures.

How shallow and thin skinned...and stupid. I didn’t know about Trump’s tweet until JK brought it up.

Of course I didn’t even know the Oscars was tonight.

HOLLYWOOD, like Washington D.C is out of touch with normal Americans.

"Of course I didn’t even know the Oscars was tonight."

I didn't either until some bored Freeper decided to waste bandwidth on the site, and post a Live Thread for the yearly clown show.

I remember Trump, as President, Tweeting a comment on the results of the Oscars and how he disagreed with the Best Picture Award (or something like that).

That sealed his legendary status for me - a sitting President who comments on the Oscars!

The program was supposed to be all about the awards for the movies but Jimmy had to make it political.

Just like the NBA, all I want to do is to watch a game. Not get lectured.

All the while, demonrats like Hitlery, Xiden, Gyorgy Schwartz and Obeyme can break all the laws they want and they’ll never see the inside of a jail cell, which only shows how corrupt our justice system truly is.
