In a recent episode of the talk show “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” host Jimmy Kimmel discussed the upcoming meeting between President-elect Joe Biden and outgoing President Donald Trump at the White House. Kimmel humorously compared this meeting to divorced parents attending their kids’ school play. While it is traditional for the first ladies to attend this meeting, Melania Trump will not be present, fueling speculation about her future plans.
Kimmel jokingly suggested that Melania treating the White House like an Airbnb may not bode well for their relationship. He playfully speculated on what would happen if they were to split up, remarking on a hypothetical scenario where a single Donald Trump would be hitting on translators and bringing back Playmates from decades ago.
Kimmel then provided some insight into Trump’s plans for his second term. According to Trump’s new Chief of Staff, Susie WS, he intends to issue a series of executive orders on his first day in office. These orders reportedly include actions related to immigration and climate change. Kimmel mockingly referred to a conference held by the right-wing Rockbridge Network in which Trump discussed these plans and his intention to continue holding rallies even after the election.
The talk show host also delved into Trump’s cabinet choices, highlighting some eyebrow-raising appointments. Christy Gome, Governor of South Dakota, is rumored to be the new Secretary of Homeland Security, which Kimmel found amusing considering her previous campaign focus on killing pets. Kimmel also mentioned Mike Uab, former Governor of Arkansas, who is set to be the new ambassador to Israel despite his controversial sense of humor.
One of the most surprising appointments, according to Kimmel, was Marco Rubio as Secretary of State, given the derogatory comments Trump has made about him in the past. Kimmel played a clip of Trump insulting Rubio, with derogatory nicknames and mocking his physical appearance. Despite this, Rubio agreed to talk to Kimmel and discussed his efforts to stop Trump from taking over the Republican party.
Moving on to the election itself, Kimmel reminisced about the rollercoaster campaign. He mentioned the endorsements and criticisms exchanged between Trump and various politicians, including Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Tim Wall. Kimmel also highlighted some controversial statements made by Trump, as well as humorous moments like the “Trump watches” and “trump coin” merchandise.
In conclusion, Kimmel humorously reflected on the past week since the election and how it has been a historic and dramatic event. He acknowledged that while some people voted for Trump because they saw him as a straight talker who fought for the little guy, Rubio and others are determined to stop him from taking over the conservative movement. Kimmel ended the segment with a sarcastic remark about the weirdness of Trump supporters and their unorthodox behavior.
Overall, this episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live” provided viewers with a lively and entertaining take on the Trump administration’s transition and the aftermath of the election. It showcased Kimmel’s signature humor and wit, making for an enjoyable watch.
