"Jimmy Kimmel Live! is currently the 20th most popular show on ABC and 97th overall on TV, watched by a total number of 1,746,000 people (0.56% rating, up +23% from last week) per episode, as of the average weekly audience measurement for the period ending January 22, 2023, surpassing Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon watched by a number of 1,278,000 people for the same period.
Jimmy Kimmel Live! has been repeatedly dominating late night talk shows among adults 18-49."
Trump won't get 1.7 million at 15-20 of his lie-fests. But it just shows there are an awful lot of ignorant Americans. Kimmel gets that number OF ADULTS (not children, which is in your 330M #, reality is skewed in Trumpland). EVERY single night.
I can't wait for Trump's sentencing next month on his 34 Felony counts for which a Jury found him unanimously guilty. Bbbbut he says he's innocent. The guy is a pathological liar and a lifelong loser. How big is his bbbbrain when he bankrupted 2-3 Casino's. Real Casino owners wonder how that's even a possibility. How much of your (alleged) "hard-earned" money did you give to your hero for his $400. "gold" sneakers or his $1k "gold and diamond" watch or his Chinese-published Bibles or his NFT's? I remember him telling us all (LYING) that he "doesn't need anyone else's money". BWAHHHHHH, riiiiiiight. The orange Pinocchio! The Biden-Harris economy is "soooo terrible" that his low IQ followers are actually buying his fake junk that he's hawking!
The only thing greater than your ignorance is your arrogance. Not a Trump supporter nor have I voted for him. As for the rest of your screed do you have any original thoughts or do you just parrot Democratic talking points.
As for numbers - check what Joe Rogan gets which makes Kimmel’s audience even more pathetic - like your rant.
This was a truly good segment. This most definitely won’t help the minds of MAGA Repubs, but maybe there’s some regular Repub who’s sitting on the fence.
Listen, you don’t have to vote for Harris and you can vote for other Republicans down the ballot, but please reconsider your vote for Trump. If he wins, it may very well be your last vote - until we have a war to take democracy back. Let’s try to avoid that. Don’t vote for him!
With all due respect, if I watch it (to give Kimmel's show clicks) it'll be with the sound off. I really hate PAB's voice, and I already know he's full of shit.
Agreed. PAB is ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS FOS!!! He wouldn't know "truth" if it introduced itself to him in person. If his lips are moving, he's definitely lying, and soiling his diapers.
This was a fantastic monologue. It reminded me just how insane Trump is. We tend to forget how unhinged he is and why the only place he belongs is behind bars.
I just read a Wapo article on Yahoo this morning, about pro choice women voting for Trump, including a woman who had to have an abortion because of an ectopic pregnancy. And another woman who thinks Trump has 'learned his lesson' (Susan Collins, is that you?) And one who thinks because the word 'ban' won't be used, that there will be no abortion ban. Willfully and proudly voting against themselves, their daughter and grand daughters. There is no helping some people.
The problem is not the millions who will vote for Drumpf no matter what, the problem is those who know better yet will not confront family members or "friends for years." Those people exist right here on Wonkette. For me, Drumpf was the line in the sand. I have not spoken to those family members or former friends since at least back to Jan 6, 2021. I am well rid of them.
My brother is a Trumper. He and I went toe to toe in my dining room. Nasty, insulting words were said. Fists were raised. Calmer heads prevailed but it sure got heated. We no longer discuss anything to do with politics. We go along to get along, but we both know where the red line is.
That is a strategic error, I have consistently pointed out the lies, inconsistencies and outright fantasies that make up the MAGAt worldview as you pretty much can't break a boulder with a hammer, but put that thing in running water and eventually it gets worn down to sand.
You don't have to "convince" them, just sow doubt in their minds to the point where they realize that they've been taken by a con man who would happily rape their daughter or wife if they turned their back on him.
I confronted two or three family members, the same for acquaintances, then realize it was a lost cause and wrote them off. I just have no tolerance for that level of stupidity.
This isn't going to move anyone. Sorry Jimmy, but if people refuse to acknowledge reality every day (and they do) nothing Kimmel says is going to make a difference.
I had this convo with DH this afternoon... he was cockawhoop about Biden saying the G-word. I reminded him that I wear my Snowflake necklace with pride because people like me get called the equivalent of garbage or worse EVERY DAY by Trump. And no one cares! So why should we start clutching our pearls about one more gaffe from the 2nd most gaffe-prone pres ever (sorry W, you win) when HE IS NOT ON THE BALLOT. (He won't say but I am really hoping he voted for Kamala ... he has admitted Trump sucks).
If Trump was only repeating the lies of "they're eating the dogs, they're eating the cats" then he (himself) was lying and he makes no effort to correct his statement. Trump had (and still DOESN'T have) any PROOF whatsoever, neither has the alleged Yale Lawyer, JD Vance.
And, when pushed, we can all see how fast he jumped to "what about the geese"? The reality is, NOBODY has a license OR SEASON to hunt a dog or a cat in this country. But at certain times, and in certain places, you CAN hunt geese!
"Hunting seasons
The Migratory Bird Conventions set the earliest and latest dates for hunting, which are September 1 and March 10, respectively. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) selects annual framework dates for hunting, which vary by migratory game bird group. For example, the regular waterfowl season for geese is typically from mid-February.
Licenses
Massachusetts residents need a hunting or sporting license, a waterfowl stamp, and a federal duck stamp to hunt geese. Non-residents need a big game or small game license, a waterfowl stamp, and a federal duck stamp. "
You also need to use lead-free shot for waterfowling! Yet despite the government tyranny, people are still hunting, shooting, and eating ducks and geese. Sporting licenses are a huge source of conservation funding per the Pittman-Roberts Act, which means it must be in Project 2025's destructive sights somehow.
Yet, still, they voted for him. WTF?
This is amazing. Thanks, Evan. And thank you Jimmy Kimmel.
Kimmel and his “insights” are as impactful as his humor which is why nobody watches his show.
"nobody"?

Yes, nobody. In a country of 330M people that is nothing. 1% would be over 3M viewers and he ain’t even close to that. But hey, nice try.

His sentencing is still scheduled for November 26 in NYC. 34 counts of FELONY Fraud. And his buddies at the Supreme Court can't do anything about it.
Fact check:
Brains not in evidence.
Thanks for highlighting this in your typically hilarious, well-written way, Evan! LOVED your “kitchen floor” line. Keep up the good work!

The Kennedy bit was hysterical.
