In a recent episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live“, the talk show host didn’t hold back as he discussed a range of topics, from a bizarre incident involving one of the “1000lb Sisters” from TLC to the breakout star of the Olympic break dancing competition. But it was his comments about Donald Trump and Kamala Harris that really caught the attention of viewers.
Kimmel wasted no time in poking fun at Trump’s legal troubles, including the recent superseding indictment related to his attempts to overturn the election. He also mentioned how several artists, including Rihanna and the Rolling Stones, have sent Trump cease and desist letters for playing their music at his rallies without permission. Kimmel quipped, “A judge ordered him to stop playing the song ‘Hold On, I’m Coming’ at his rallies. He can still play it with his porn stars, but not at the rallies.”
Moving on to Kamala Harris, Kimmel contrasted the support she receives from musicians like Beyoncé, who allowed her to use her song “Freedom” as her official campaign song, with the lack of support Trump has from artists. Kimmel joked, “Harris gets to play pretty much whatever she likes, whereas Trump is left with… well, nothing.”
Kimmel also couldn’t resist taking a dig at Trump’s ability to articulate a vision or put together an English sentence. He cited Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s endorsement of Trump and his criticism of Harris, saying, “I don’t think that Vice President Harris is a worthy president of this country. We need a president who can give an interview, who can articulate a vision, who can put together an English sentence.”
The talk show host didn’t stop there. He went on to discuss Joe Biden‘s rising approval ratings, joking, “All you have to do to get people to like you more is stop running for president.” Kimmel also mentioned a light-hearted moment when Biden was spotted at the beach, showing off his beach body. “It’s very hot here in LA too, over 100° in the valley today,” Kimmel said. “We sent our news team to Santa Monica Beach, where they filed this very special report.”
Throughout the episode, Kimmel added his signature humor and wit to the discussions, keeping the audience entertained. As always, “Jimmy Kimmel Live” served up plenty of laughs and memorable moments.
