Jelly Roll Calls President Trump ‘Full of Sh–,’ Doubles Down on Weight Jokes: ‘I Thought Fat-on-Fat Crime Was OK!’
"I think we can all agree he is certainly not physically fit," the musician quipped of the POTUS.
Country music star Jelly Roll continued to make jokes about President Donald Trump's weight during his guest-hosting role on Jimmy Kimmel Live! The comedian addressed the backlash from MAGA conservatives and Fox News pundits who criticized his previous comments. During his segment on Wednesday night's show, Jelly Roll joked that he had "lost an entire Donald Trump" when referring to his own 300-pound weight loss. He also defended his earlier remarks, saying, "I thought fat-on-fat crime was OK!"
Jelly Roll introduced a parody commercial for a fictional weight-loss drug called "Donjaro," poking fun at Trump's alleged obesity. The commercial featured a narrator emphasizing how Trump's overweight appearance made it difficult for him to focus on important matters. Jelly Roll sarcastically questioned why Trump hadn't lost anything but his popularity and mental faculties.
Outside of the Trump jokes, the singer continued to mock the president over his trade war with Canada, which has reportedly led to increased prices for everyday essentials like toilet paper. Jelly Roll sarcastically suggested that Trump's actions were poetic, since the president was "full of sh--."
The musician also dismissed accusations that he had taken Ozempic, a medication for weight loss, and developed "Trump Derangement Syndrome" as a side effect. Jelly Roll claimed he lost weight by using cocaine, not the prescribed drug, in response to claims by Jesse Watters on Fox News. Despite his history of staying away from politics, Jelly Roll has expressed a desire to speak out about the issue during his time as Kimmel's guest host, stating, "People shouldn't care to hear about my opinion.
I'm a dumb redneck... I didn't even know politics were f—ing real until I was in my mid-20s in jail."
