During Wednesday's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" monologue, comedian Jimmy Kimmel attempted to make a joke about Donald Trump's recent midterm campaigning trips to Arizona and Montana. Kimmel started by mentioning Trump's two campaign stops, jokingly comparing the president's travel to treating tuberculosis in the past. However, while struggling to say "tuberculosis," Kimmel admitted the joke had been particularly challenging for him.
He admitted defeat, stating, "It was a hard night. I'm not even going to attempt that again." Kimmel's attempt at humor came after a premonologue remark about his sidekick Guillermo Rodriguez being eliminated from "Dancing With the Stars." Later in the show, Kimmel mocked Trump's self-proclaimed "genius" status, citing his recent cognitive test performance.
