Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel says he has no regrets about ripping President Donald Trump on a near-nightly basis even if it turns off countless conservative viewers. “A lot of people are going with this line of reasoning where they say, people in show business shouldn’t speak out about politics,” Jimmy Kimmel told in an interview with ABC News’ Paula Faris on Tuesday. “And yet … they elected Donald Trump the president of the United States. So I think that argument has pretty well jumped out the window.”
Most recently, the Live host has pushed political views like amnesty for illegal immigrants, gun control, and tax-payer subsidized healthcare — all while skewering President Trump and his supporters.
“I don’t think you can go too far,” Kimmel says of his politically charged rhetoric. “I’m still doing a comedy show and I need to be funny and entertain my audience, but I also think that we’ve matured enough … to the point where we can accept late-night talk show hosts speaking about a serious subject. And I think that it’s almost necessary now.”

it’s imperative to insult half the country... you can’t go too far
little kimmy jimmel - is he still around?
Gee, more breaking news from the jesters, clowns and play actors from leftist land?
This, of course, opens him up to counterpunches. BTW, why was he willing to have Trump on his show during the campaign.
Isn’t he an alleged comedian?
Kimmel wouldn’t know what real comedy is if it smashed into his face.
It sounds like the Left is in their death throes to me.
He used to be one.
Now THAT would be FUNNY!
I’m still doing a comedy show and I need to be funny and entertain my audience

So that is what he call it. Notice how nobody laughs at his “jokes”, instead they clap. Sorry that isn’t comedy, people laugh at comedy because they find it funny, people clap because they agree with it, that’s called propaganda
Kimmel said. “It’s an awards show for people who have been dreaming about maybe winning an Oscar for their whole lives.
While Molesting Children, Raping Women, Sexually Assaulting Women or COVERING UP for All of those that do these evil things in order to get a Job and get Paid. YEP, They deserve your respect?
And the last thing I want to do is ruin that for someone who is nominated for, you know, best leading actress or best supporting or best director or cinematographer or whatever, by making it unpleasant.”
So Jimmy, you dumb a$$, do your advertisers know about the 63+ million Trump voters who are sick of you and your advertisers?
Leftists can NEVER go too far.
They may not be electable if they reveal too much but the media has NEVER said that some Far Left behavior was “too extreme”.
Yep! I noticed that too!
They can’t even announce the actual winners at this thing anymore without screwing up bigly.
These “comedians “ are truly the most juvenile bunch around. Male and female. It’s 5th grade humor and so stupid that you can’t watch.
Sounds like they are staging the 16th anniversary annual Wellstone Memorial DNC Rally.
