Jimmy Kimmel’s Response to Trump’s Attack on Truth Social
Former President Donald Trump took to Truth Social to criticize Jimmy Kimmel’s hosting performance at the Oscars, calling for his replacement with George Slopanopoulos. Trump accused Kimmel of trying too hard and being politically correct, suggesting that the Oscars should be awarded based on deserving recipients to improve TV ratings.
In a bold move, Jimmy Kimmel responded to Trump’s attack during the Oscars broadcast, mocking the former president by reading out his comments and sarcastically thanking him for watching. Kimmel’s clever comeback highlighted Trump’s past legal issues, insinuating that he should be in jail instead of criticizing the Oscars host.

Trump’s attempt to undermine Kimmel’s reputation backfired as the host used the global platform of the Oscars to expose Trump to worldwide ridicule. Trump’s attack on Kimmel through Truth Social only served to make him the subject of mockery on a much larger scale, highlighting the power of response and humor in the face of unwarranted criticism.
