Jimmy Kimmel admits 'repulsive' liberal scolds are driving people away from the Democratic Party
Fox News ^ | Kristine Parks , Alexander Hall

Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel admitted "repulsive" liberal voices are scaring people away from the Democratic Party during an appearance on the "Sarah Silverman Podcast" on Thursday.

The comedians discussed cancel culture persisting on the left since President Donald Trump returned to office. They criticized those who continue to shun Trump voters who are now expressing regret for supporting the president.

Silverman brought up how podcast host Joe Rogan has been attacked online for criticizing Trump's second term after supporting him in the 2024 election. She called it "ironic" that the party of "inclusivity" was "incredibly elitist."

Anti-Trump Kimmel, who campaigned for Democrats in the 2024 election, defended his party while agreeing that some progressive figures have turned people away.

"Yes. But it's not- it's not the party. It's not the majority. It's the loud voices that scare people from saying what they believe and make you think twice about a joke or whatever," he responded.

"You know, a lot of their points are valid, but a lot of them are also just repulsive, in that they repel people," Kimmel continued. "They go like, 'Oh, you're no fun. I don't want to be around you.' And I think that if you had to boil it down to one thing, that's kind of what it is."

Or maybe it’s because Dems are really communists who hate America?

Trump voters who are now expressing regret for supporting the president.

I think that is a very small group.

I guess it often Takes One to Know One, right, Jimmy?
Turn your mirror around and take a good look at the problem.

“They criticized those who continue to shun Trump voters who are now expressing regret for supporting the president.”

You mean those fictional figures you see in your closet at night?

A very small group that now regret voting Trump? Indeed…

I’ll bet a pretty penny that the number is the smallest in 100 or more years.

Other than arrests of deep state, I give Trump an A+

Finally. The mask comes off and JK reveals he has a semblance of a rational mind.

My head is spinning. I'm going to try to break this down.

1) Joe Rogan supported Trump in 2024, and has subsequently been willing to criticize some aspects of Trump's second term.This is shocking? I guess to a Democrat who belongs to a party that demands 100% allegiance to the party line.
2) Is she calling the Republicans the party of "inclusivity"? Are we back to the "Big Tent"? But she is simultaneously calling Republicans "elitist". How? Evidence? Just slinging insults? And the "irony"? Only is you create two things "inclusivity" and "elitism" and slap those labels on Republicans for the heck of it. Yeah, I guess there would be irony there. But is seems like a straw man construct you just threw together because it sounded clever.

Was he looking in the mirror when he said that?

If there are any conservatives out there who regret voting for Trump, I have no respect for them because they voted for someone who, in their heads, wouldn't deliver what Trump has delivered. IOW, those people were never conservatives.

And I already have zero respect for the precious "Undecided Voters". Those are the worst of the worst. In the last election, I would have openly ridiculed anyone who was "undecided" approaching Election Day.

If you can't make a choice between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, you shouldn't be allowed to vote because you are either a socialist/communist/Marxist, or...you are:

Is it just me, RR, Trump and Rush, or does “Democratic” sound all wrong when referring to the Democrat Party, Democrat politicians, Democrat voters or Democrat policies?

“Democratic’ is an adjective…. I wish people would just say “Democrat”.

So it only OK to like people who voted Republican if they say they made a mistake? That is the message I get from this nitwit.

Does Kimmel think he isn't repulsive?

We are tired of people who take offense to everything.

We are tired of people who throw tiny fisted tantrums over things that have nothing to do with them.

We are tired of having our stuff stolen by criminals and we do not feel sorry for 98% of the people who are saying they are victims.

We are now ignoring those people.

The next step will be telling them to shut up.

The step after that will be shutting them up.

You do not want us to get to that point but, you keep pushing and you will get there.

Joe Rogan supported Bernie Sanders at one time. Also Joe Rogan criticized President Trump for deporting all illegals.

He LITERALLY said he was going to deport ALL illegals.

Joe Rogan is too full of himself sometimes.
