After another eventful week in Trump‘s second presidency, Jimmy Kimmel took aim at the “orange nosers” who have continued supporting him on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
“Man oh man, the orange nosers are kissing his butt in ways no one has ever seen before,” he joked on Tuesday’s episode of Live. “Remember the Republicans were all wearing flag pins? Now, they’re wearing pins with Trump’s face on them.” He then shared a photo of FCC chairman Brendan Carr proudly sporting a Trump pin.
Kimmel also pointed to the recent instance when Anthony Constantino, the owner of the company Stickermule, unveiled a seven-foot-tall bronze statue of Trump called the “Defiance Monument,” which the late night host joked had already been “issued a restraining order from the Statue of Liberty.”
Kimmel did not let up as he then railed against Trump supporters claiming “God put him [in the White House]” and that he speaks “from his heart.”
But Kimmel wasn’t buying it. “That’s not his heart, honey, it’s his ass – different part of his body,” he fired back, receiving cheers from the Live audience. “And if God really did put him there it was to test us.”
Kimmel recently responded to Trump supporters who labeled him a “hypocrite” for his work on The Man Show in an interview with Rolling Stone.
“It’s fair game,” he said. “I think it’s kind of funny, because the very people who are using those videos as an example of why I’m a horrible person were probably the biggest fans of the show at that time. We did the show a little tongue-in-cheek.”
But the late night host maintained his stance against Trump and his right wing supporters, calling the president “vindictive” and labeling his right-hand-man Elon Musk “a very bad person.”
Jimmy Kimmel Live airs weeknights at 11:35/10:35c on ABC.
