Jimmy Kimmel Compares His Summer Break to Trump’s: ‘We Both Accomplished Nothing’
Are you telling me the president of the United States had three full months and spent $20 million and couldn't even get a pool cleaned?"
Jimmy Kimmel returned from his summer hiatus on Tuesday and immediately targeted former President Donald Trump, criticizing him for having accomplished "nothing all summer long." On his show "Jimmy Kimmel Live!," Kimmel reviewed the "crazy stuff" Trump did while vacationing, including the failed efforts to address issues like Iran conflict, high gas prices, inflation, and the state of the nation, including the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool which was described as "a big green slop hole."
Kimmel proclaimed that Trump had solved all these problems, claiming "thanks to your favorite president, DJ Jazzy Donald, every one of those problems has been solved. We made America great again." The audience responded with boos, which Kimmel feigned ignorance about. He then mocked the reflecting pool, suggesting it had been turned "into gravy," and questioned how Trump could attempt to win a war against Iran without even getting the pool cleaned.
Kimmel mocked Trump's low approval ratings, stating "Trump’s pool numbers and poll numbers are at all-time lows. Only 33%." He joked that Trump's main accomplishment was his hair and that the leaves were changing, suggesting Trump was aging in reverse. Kimmel also criticized Trump's post on AI-generated content, noting his "crazier than ever" behavior.
