Jimmy Kimmel and his audience on Monday celebrated a legal ruling against President Donald Trump that triggered a fit of rage on social media.
“Remember how this lunatic had his name added to the front of the Kennedy Center? The ‘Trump Kennedy Center’?” he asked. “On Friday, a federal judge ruled that his name has to come off.”
The audience cheered the news wildly.
Kimmel flashed the entire lengthy screeds on the screen so the audience could see how long the presidential posts were.
“He said he’s given up on his renovation plan,” Kimmel noted. “He’s turning the building back over to Congress to figure it out. He doesn’t care about it anymore.”
Kimmel offered the president some backhanded reassurance.
“But don’t worry,” he said. “Trump’s name will remain squarely emblazoned on the still-unreleased Trump-Epstein files for all time.”
Kimmel earlier this year launched a push to stop referring to the files related to late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein as simply “the Epstein files.” Instead, he suggested referring to them as the “Trump-Epstein files,” given that the president was once close friends with Epstein and given that Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) said a search for Trump’s name in the unredacted files turned up “more than a million results.”
