Jimmy Kimmel has spent the last year ripping into President Trump and his supporters nearly every night — delivering 10-minute diatribes during each “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” broadcast for the last two weeks.
The Post reviewed all of Kimmel’s monologues for the last 12 months so you don’t have to — and the findings were monotonous.
Again and again and again he took aim at Trump and Trump’s voters.
There were cracks about Trump’s relationship with first lady Melania, and a flag pole gag that ended with an “erection denier” joke and then another one where Kimmel slammed Trump supporters as “MAGA mouth-breathers.”
Since returning from summer vacation on Sept. 2, Kimmel has spent roughly 90-minutes of monologue time over 9 episodes to rail against Trump — and bottomed out by claiming that Charlie Kirk’s killer was a MAGA supporter, a false assertion that led to him being yanked off air Wednesday.
On Sept. 10, just hours after Kirk was assassinated, Kimmel opted to air the cell phone footage from anti-Israel demonstrators during their protest of the cabinet’s dinner trip in Washington, DC.
“Free DC! Free Palestine! Trump is the Hitler of our time!,” was chanted several times and sent over ABC airwaves into the homes of Americans the night Charlie Kirk was killed.
“Jimmy Kimmel Live!” is recorded at 4:30 p.m. PT; Kirk was shot about five hours earlier in Utah.
In the same monologue the LA-based comic claimed Trump turned Washington into a “militarized zone,” referred to him as a “34-time convicted felon.”
He also claimed, “Trump, according to Forbes, has grifted $3 billion since he won the election.”
Forbes Billionaires List did not suggest that the president “grifted” or used illegal means to amass his fortune.
The following night, Kimmel made a brief mention of the killing — saying it “amplified our anger, our differences” before launching into another tirade against Trump for being “divisive.”
“The man who told a crowd of supporters that maybe the Second Amendment people should do something about Hillary Clinton. The man who said he wouldn’t mind if someone shot through the fake news media,” Kimmel intoned.
His recent monologues all bear titles such as “MAGA Mouth-Breathers Mad About Cracker Barrel,” “Trump Threatens Chicago” and “‘Trump Letter’ in Epstein Birthday Book Causes MAGA Freakout.”
In the “MAGA Freakout” monologue, Kimmel interviews a fake California Governor Gavin Newsom who suggested Donald Trump Jr. got his “sloppy seconds” in reference to their former partner Kimberly Guilfoyle, the ambassador to Greece.
In the last year, about five monologues have focused on a subject other than Trump, with the most recent coming on Dec. 11, in which Kimmel provided light-hearted updates on Luigi Mangione, who he said America “thirsted” after.
