President Donald Trump celebrated the abrupt cancelation of Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Wednesday night with a blistering Truth Social post that cheered the end of the ABC late-night show.
Trump also called for two of Kimmel's network rivals, Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers to be fired next.
'Great News for America: The ratings challenged Jimmy Kimmel Show is CANCELLED,' Trump wrote.
'Congratulations to ABC for finally having the courage to do what had to be done. Kimmel has ZERO talent, and worse ratings than even Colbert, if that's possible. That leaves Jimmy and Seth, two total losers, on Fake News NBC. Their ratings are also horrible. Do it NBC!!!'
Trump's triumphant post cames only hours after ABC suspended Kimmel's show indefinitely, following the host's incendiary monologues about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, a staunch Trump ally.
ABC confirmed the late-night program had been pulled in a short statement.
'Jimmy Kimmel Live will be preempted indefinitely,' the network said.

I was thinking The View.
But I’m fine Seth Meyers getting the boot as well.

I don’t think I could ID Seth Meyers in a line up.
Johnny Carson and Jack Parr (I don’t recall his predecessor) would have never been so crass. I swear the left has had a free pass for a few decades and been terrible to anyone on the right. I’m glad he is gone. I can’t imagine what he can pick up for work.
Best President ever!
Tells it like it is. Any normal American can relate to the way he put it.
Frankly, I could never watch Kimmel.
He was the worst of what is now called “comedy”.
Puberty level crapper “jokes”.
Not fun at all.
Please start with the View.
Imagine them saying, nervously, “You guys don’t believe in silly superstitions that we’re next. It’s based on ratings, right? We’re going to be on TV to the end of time, aren’t we? All America loves us.”
These shows are nothing but propaganda. They are not funny. Nor are they watched anymore. My favorite late night was Letterman, when he had Obama read the note to Donald Trump about “going down as a president”. That did not age well.

No, South Park is next. I don’t think Trump knows how vile they have gotten. I think the shooter was radicalized through cartoons like South Park.
Right. I hope gargoyles of The View are next. They got it coming.
Many thanks to the people of ABC News who made this decision.
I’m happy that screeching turd Kimmel got the boot.

Letterman used to be good until his humor started to shift and you could notice his partisan tone in his shows, probably around 2005 or so.
Seth Meyers is perhaps the worst of them all. Trump is goading Meyers into making the same mistake Kimmel made (i.e. doubling down on his politization of his late night show rather than toning down the rhetoric and focusing on entertaining people). We’re in a new media world, and leftist losers like Seth Meyers haven’t figured it out yet. My guess is he will, soon.
The Left has asked for it and they are now going to get it.
