"Sabo" created posters of Kimmel looking like a young Johnny Depp from the 1990 movie, 'Cry-Baby.'

It's inevitable that late-night comedians who have become increasingly partisan in the President Trump era would earn the ire of conservatives, one of whom took his complaint to the streets early Thursday morning. His target: Jimmy Kimmel.

The conservative, an artist who goes by the moniker, "Sabo," created posters of Kimmel looking like a young Johnny Depp from the 1990 movie, Cry-Baby.

"Jimmy Kimmel is a Cry-Baby," reads the text above an image of Kimmel, greasy hair slicked back, clad in a leather jacket. Sabo posted about a dozen of the posters in tough-to-reach places near Kimmel's home in West Hollywood near the famed Chateau Marmont Hotel. Others were posted near the Jimmy Kimmel Live! studio on Hollywood Boulevard.

Calls 'em how he sees 'em. Sadly, there are those out there that think these assclowns actually know, well, anything. Just bullies.

From the title I was hoping some “artist” turned Kimmel into a piece of “performance art.”

I love this artist. His Trump-Apple poster was brilliant. If this guy (gal?) was a leftist, he would be all over the design media: Communication Arts, How Design, Print mag, etc. But they have said not a peep about him. They much prefer to profile communist street artist, which are a dime a dozen and not nearly as clever.

I finally saw Kimmel’s crying act and boy was it pathetic. It almost seemed fake.

Back when funny was funny. Just don’t cut of your slausin.

[dfwgator]

Hard to believe he was once on “The Man Show”.

[PGalt]

Who Jimmie Kimmie? (Never watched her)

[King Hawk]

If you don’t feel like being funny, Jimmy, just book an hour of artists to come and sing.

Spot on!

Change cry baby to offensive asshole, and I will agree. Thanks rktman.

That Sabo guy has guts - a lot more than the GOPe.

Kimmel”s show has turned into a clone of The View except with a lower case cursive y chromosome.

Last night Hillary was on Fallon and he had Miley Cyrus and female staffers write thank you notes to her. So Hillary got a couple of thank you notes from much younger women. But just like his 8 years in the white house, here's one more time she won't match Bill.
