Donald Trump
Forget Election Results …
If I Can’t Host Better Than Kimmel, Fire Me!!!
Published
Donald Trump implied he’s resigning the presidency … well, if he’s not a better host than Jimmy Kimmel, that is … cracking the joke during a Kennedy Center Honors event at the White House.
The President of the United States took another shot at his talk show host nemesis while highlighting the annual award nominees … including KISS, Sylvester Stallone, and more.
In the clip, Trump — who is hosting the Kennedy Center Honors tonight, though it won’t air on TV until December 23 — says he assumes the media will tear apart his hosting, no matter how well it goes.
But, he argues, he’s seen a ton of terrible hosts over the years … just take Jimmy Kimmel for example.
Kimmel’s never hosted the Kennedy Center Honors — but he has hosted the Academy Awards four times — so it seems likely Trump’s referring to one of those hosting gigs.
Trump then makes a bold proclamation … joking, “If I can’t beat out Jimmy Kimmel in terms of talent, then I don’t deserve to be president.”

As you know … Trump and Kimmel really don’t like each other … with the former even pushing for the latter’s show to be canceled after a comment he made regarding Charlie Kirk‘s shooter back in September.
More recently, Trump’s taken to Truth Social to air his grievances … calling Kimmel a “talentless bum” in a recent post. Kimmel replied by using the prez’s own words against him … telling him to “quiet, piggy!”
President Trump’s personal beef aside, the honorees seemed pleased to be in D.C., celebrating their achievement … check out our gallery to see all the celebs while they received their medals.
Like we said, Trump’s got the mic tonight … and we doubt he’ll avoid the topic of Kimmel for long!
