It’s been six months since Jimmy Kimmel hosted the Oscars, but Trump is still clearly angry about him reading one of the former president’s Truth Social rants while on stage.
Earlier this week, Trump held a rally where he randomly started ranting about Kimmel again, giving his own version of what happened at the Academy Awards before describing Kimmel as “one of the dumbest human beings ever.”
“Isn’t that sweet?” says Kimmel after playing the clip. “He’s confusing me with one of his sons again.”
The joke Kimmel actually made at the Oscars, after reading Trump’s Truth Social rant out loud, was: “I’m surprised you’re still up, isn’t it past your jail time?” — and even though Trump seems convinced that Kimmel’s wife, Molly McNearney, didn’t want him to make the joke, Kimmel brings her out on stage to make it very clear where she stands.
“Donald, thank you for your support, and I’m glad I have your attention,” she says in the clip. “Because one in three women currently in this country is living under an abortion ban, because you stacked our supreme court. Thanks to you, women in 21 states can’t make their own choice about their own life and their own body. And 10 U.S. states make no exception for rape and incest. The party you run so bigly and so beautifully, the party that cares so much about motherhood, just blocked a bill that would protect our access to IVF. Women are dying, and good doctors are quitting, because they can’t get, or give, the reproductive care women desperately need.
“So my advice for you is to shut up, and go away. Go to Mar-a-Lago. Spend all day, every day, cheating at golf and masturbating to Newsmax, and let a competent woman take over.”
