Jimmy Kimmel Taunts Trump Ahead of Nobel Peace Prize Reveal: ‘Will Not Be You’

“I know you were really good this year. I know you only bombed 10 fishermen and one school,” the late night host quips The post Jimmy Kimmel Taunts Trump Ahead of Nobel Peace Prize Reveal: ‘Will Not Be You’ appeared first on TheWrap .

Jimmy Kimmel made light of Donald Trump's chances of winning the Nobel Peace Prize in his monologue for "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" ahead of the prize announcement. The comedian joked that Trump had "only bombed 10 fishermen and one school" this year, contrasting it with the expectation of a Nobel snub. Kimmel quipped, "In fact, just hours from now, they will hand out the Nobel Prize for Peace, the big one.

And that means it is that magical time of the year when our president, Donald JD Bug Trump, cries like a newborn baby, even though he doesn’t care about the Nobel Prize at all." He also took aim at Trump's cognitive abilities, noting, "Everything you need to know about Donald Trump’s brain can be explained by the fact that he believes he should win a Nobel Prize for peace seven months after starting a war for no reason."

Kimmel expressed amusement at the thought of other potential finalists, such as Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, who he jokingly thought might be "mortified to know that that someone will not be you tomorrow."
