Despised “comedian” Jimmy Kimmel triggered another round of recriminations this week by speculating over former President Donald Trump’s possible death.
As it stands, the U.S. Supreme Court is eventually set to consider the embattled former president’s claims of “complete and total” presidential immunity as per the crimes he’s been accused of committing.
Speaking about this Thursday on his ABC show, Kimmel speculated that Trump may die if the high court ultimately rules against him.
“Let me tell you something — if those three judges he appointed to the Supreme Court take this case and rule against him, he is going to blow a whale-sized windmill out of his a**. I mean, it might actually kill him,” he said.
“Sometimes I wonder, once Trump is dead and gone and buried on the 18th hole of one of his golf courses, will things get better? Or will we have a whole new crop of MAGA brains to deal with?” he continued.
Listen:
Kimmel’s many critics were annoyed by the joke, especially in light of his own notorious inability to take a joke.
Kimmel recently threatened to sue New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers for jokingly suggesting his name may be among those on deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s list of associates.
“There’s a lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel, who are really hoping that [list] doesn’t come out,” Rodgers had said during an appearance on ESPN’s “The Pat McAfee Show.”
The simple joke sent Kimmel into a tweeting frenzy:
Dear Aasshole: for the record, I’ve not met, flown with, visited, or had any contact whatsoever with Epstein, nor will you find my name on any “list” other than the clearly-phony nonsense that soft-brained wackos like yourself can’t seem to distinguish from reality. Your reckless… https://t.co/p8eug12uiS

“Dear Aa–hole: for the record, I’ve not met, flown with, visited, or had any contact whatsoever with Epstein, nor will you find my name on any ‘list’ other than the clearly-phony nonsense that soft-brained wackos like yourself can’t seem to distinguish from reality,” he wrote on X.
“Your reckless words put my family in danger. Keep it up and we will debate the facts further in court,” he added.
The fact that this same guy is now making jokes about Trump’s death isn’t sitting well with folks.
Look:
So Kimmel cried because his name was mentioned with Epstein but he’ll do it to others? Trump should sue. . Kimmel is a B with an itch.

Same @jimmykimmel who lost it when he was mentioned as a cohort of Epstein’s but he’s happy to say whatever he wants about Trump. Hypocrisy is not a good look.

But Kimmel whined like a baby that Rodgers put his family in danger. Then today throws out that maybe someone should kill Trump. Lol. I hate Trump. But Kimmel is also garbage. racist misogynist and hypocrite.

It’s pathetic how you can dish out your hate under the guise of a joke every single night, even pondering the death of Trump. But when you come under attack, you have a meltdown and threaten taking them to court. You are a colossal hypocrite!!!

@jimmykimmel cries when Aaron Rodgers jokes about him on Epstein Island, but Kimmel uses his show to religiously bash Trump and anyone else who supports him. Imagine Barron’s horror after losing his grandmother, when his friends show him Kimmel talking about the death of his dad.

Notice what the latter X user wrote about Trump’s son Barron: “Imagine Barron’s horror after losing his grandmother.”
Barron’s grandmother on his mother Melania Trump’s side has indeed died.
“Under a sky filled with gray clouds that promised rain later in the day, the casket carrying a former first lady’s mother was lifted into the Episcopal Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea in Palm Beach on Thursday morning,” the Palm Beach Daily News reported after her funeral.
“The funeral for Amalija Knavs, mother to Melania Trump and grandmother to Barron Trump, began at about 10 a.m., with the former first lady, her father Viktor Knavs, Barron, former President Donald Trump and the Rev. Tim Schenck, Bethesda’s rector, meeting the casket at the church sanctuary’s west-facing entrance along South Ocean Boulevard.”
