Oh, gather ’round! It’s the tale of Jimmy Kimmel, the man who had Donald Trump shaking in his boots—or rather, his Twitter fingers—at the Oscars. So there’s Jimmy, basking in the glow of the Academy Awards, when suddenly, like a cranky Internet troll, Trump decides to rain on his parade.
According to Trump’s TruthSocial tirade, Jimmy’s hosting skills are about as desirable as a flat soda on a hot day. He calls Jimmy out for trying too hard, like a middle-aged dad attempting TikTok dances at a family reunion. And just when you think he’s done, he throws in a suggestion to swap Jimmy for George Stephanopoulos, because apparently, ABC’s bargain bin has some hidden treasures.
But Jimmy’s not one to let a little TruthSocial shade rain on his parade. Oh no, he fires back with the finesse of a seasoned roaster. He wonders aloud if Trump’s bedtime has somehow shifted to match his future jail time. Ouch! Talk about a knockout punch delivered with a side of sass.
And in case you missed the memo, Trump’s got more legal drama than a soap opera on steroids—91 criminal charges, to be exact. But like a stubborn toddler caught with their hand in the cookie jar, he denies any wrongdoing.
Another day in the life of Hollywood drama, where even the former President can’t resist crashing the party with a tweetstorm. Grab your popcorn and buckle up, because this show’s just getting started!
