In a recent episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live, the host took on some hot topics, including President Trump‘s latest antics and his questionable plans for Gaza. As always, Kimmel’s wit and humor were on full display, making for an entertaining and lively show.
Kicking things off, Kimmel couldn’t help but comment on the recent news that the chances of an asteroid hitting the Earth over the next decade has doubled. In his usual sarcastic tone, Kimmel quipped, “Finally, some good news!”
Moving on to other pressing matters, Kimmel addressed the flu outbreak, which he humorously noted is killing more people than COVID-19. He didn’t miss the opportunity to take a dig at Ticket Master either, recounting how the ticket purchasing site had numerous problems during the Beyonce ticket sale. Kimmel even shared a hilarious text exchange between one of his writers and his wife, who threatened to kill him if he got in the way of her securing Beyonce tickets.
Of course, no episode would be complete without mentioning President Trump. Kimmel called him out for his “toxic” remarks and his recent hair-related tweets, joking about the color of his face and his makeup routine.
But the real highlight of the show was when Kimmel delved into Trump’s controversial plan for Gaza. With his trademark humor, Kimmel mocked Trump’s lack of thought behind the plan and likened his promises of a “beautiful location” for the Palestinians to how one might convince their parents to move into a retirement home. It was a humorous take on a serious issue.
Continuing his tirade against Trump, Kimmel turned his attention to the president’s obsession with water pressure. Referencing Trump’s tweets about flushing toilets and sinks, Kimmel teased, “If you have to flush your toilet nine times, it may not be the water pressure, maybe it’s your diet.”
Kimmel couldn’t resist poking fun at other figures in the news as well. He took a jab at rapper Kanye West, who recently faced criticism for his anti-Semitic remarks and the subsequent fallout with his talent agency. Kimmel also didn’t hold back when it came to Larry Kudlow, a bald commentator on Fox Business, who seemed overly excited about Trump’s shower pressure orders.
As the show drew to a close, Kimmel touched on the absurdity of Trump’s map-changing desires, including his wish to rename Greenland to “Red White and Blueland.” Kimmel couldn’t help but ridicule the idea, labeling it as one of the “sh-headest” ideas he has ever heard.
In typical Kimmel fashion, he managed to infuse humor into every topic, leaving his audience entertained and laughing throughout the episode. With his sharp wit and clever commentary, there’s no doubt that Jimmy Kimmel Live continues to be a top-notch talk show in the realm of late-night entertainment.
