Jimmy Kimmel got choked up during the opening monologue of his late-night show, telling his audience it was "terrible" that Donald Trump beat Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election.
The comedian came out onstage Wednesday evening for "Jimmy Kimmel Live" one day after Trump beat Harris at the polls, delivering a somber speech that nearly made Jimmy cry.
Jimmy said it was a "terrible night for women, for children, for hundreds of thousands of hard-working immigrants," briefly pausing to fight back tears.
He went on to say it was a terrible night for poor people, seniors, the middle class, the media, the justice system and Ukraine, again stopping to collect himself before moving on to Trump's voters.
Jimmy said it was a bad night for them, too, but they didn't realize it yet. He then cracked a joke about Melania, noting it was an "absolute disaster of a night" for her.
Trump was also top of mind for the 3 other late-night hosts: Seth Meyers, Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Fallon.
On "Late Night With Seth Meyers," Seth implied that Trump would never leave office now that he was back in the White House.
Seth said, “Well, Donald Trump has won the 2024 election and will be president again for four more years, or eight or 12 or whatever."
On the "Late Show With Stephen Colbert," Stephen began by sitting at his desk and addressing his audience in a serious matter about the Trump win.
He said, “Hey there, how are you doing? If you watch this show regularly I’m guessing you’re not doing great. Yeah, me neither.”
Stephen then tried to make light of things by talking about his comedy show before displaying TV clips of various news stories talking about Trump's second term with zany reactions from other countries.
Over on "The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon," Fallon began his monologue by reminding everyone "America decided to get back with a crazy ex and elect Donald Trump as the 47th President of the United States."
He added, “No matter who you voted for I think we can all agree that it’s going to be a rough Thanksgiving.”
Safe to say Kimmel, Colbert, Meyers and Fallon ain't taking the loss well.
One thing about Johnny Carson. You never quite knew what his political views were. He poked gentle fun at Republicans and Democrats alike.
Pretty much the same goes for Conan O’Brien.
All the rest are just bland and unfunny liberal stooges.
This the same Jimmy Kimmel from the man show?
There is so much to do in life. I don’t understand why so many people can be made to watch this teevee drivel.
I've said it many times...how do these old-media networks stay alive when at least half this country has tuned them out?
Somebody/thing is funding them...and it ain't ad revenue.
This puke (and the others) are nothing more than no-talent dem hacks.
Do they realize that they are offending more than half of the voters in the country ?
And Tom Smothers did an incredible Johnny Carson impersonation.

It starts at around 1:40.
What is it with these crybabies? Pathetic.
It’s like they need some Vito Corleone shaking in the office - ‘You can be a man!’
I always call him Blackface Jimmy.
LOL! “The man show” Have you ever noticed when that show was finally cancelled Kimmel who is leftist got a multi-million dollar late night talk show and Carolla who is conservative got nothing, they destroyed his career. He does a podcast now and writes books and that’s it because the “tolerant left” blacklisted him just like they blacklisted actor James Woods.

“telling his audience it was “terrible” that Donald Trump beat Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election. “
What!? Is he anti democracy?
Boo Hoo
They remind me of my son when he was 3 or 4 crying because he couldn’t play with my chainsaw lol lol. Same thing with the left:
“Waaaah! I wanted to live under a communist one party tyranny! Why can’t we have that? Waaaaah!”
Uh, because it’s harmful to life Jimmy
TexasGator: "He lives in a bubble totally insulated from Red America."
Aren't you just repeating what Steely Tom said?
I have enjoyed a few videos of liberals losing it over the election. To a person, they believe the lies told by the media, people like Kimmel, to a fault. They are literally terrified. That makes them dangerous. The media lies have already driven some to attempt to kill Trump. The discourse will not let up. Those people will be encouraged to revolt, which they will. (As if they weren’t revolting enough already.) Don’t be caught unprepared when it happens.
Allofasudden I'm a big fan of this Seth person no matter her tranny status.
“Aren’t you just repeating what Steely Tom said?”
Absolutely Not.
Are you trolling me?
