“A lot of people are going with this line of reasoning where they say, people in show business shouldn’t speak out about politics,” Jimmy Kimmel told in an interview with ABC News’ Paula Faris on Tuesday. “And yet … they elected Donald Trump the president of the United States. So I think that argument has pretty well jumped out the window.”

What argument? Was there something he said in the middle of that? Sounds like Kimmel is making an argument himself something like:

Premise 1) A lot of people say show business people should not talk about their politics.

Premise 2) A lot of people voted for Trump.

Premise 3) Voting for Trump is stupid.

Premise 4) From 2 and 3 a lot of people are stupid.

Premise 5) From 1 and 4 the people saying show business people should not talk about politics are stupid.

Conclusion) People in show business should talk about their politics.

This argument is not even close to logically valid, and its starting premises seem to be shallow reactionary opinion of somebody too upset to think critically.

I think this is a prime example of why Kimmel, at least, should not talk about politics if they have nothing useful to contribute.

Well-done. Kimmel would shill for Charles Manson if he thought it'd improve his lousy ratings situation. Until he went full-commie, he was flatlined while moving left or seeming pro-Trump was ratings gold and disaster, respectively:

Since becoming an organ of the DNC, Kimmel has made a horse race out of late night talk shows.. However, they cannot avoid the inevitable:

All three late-night network shows have shed viewers in the 18-to-49 demographic over the last year

Keep it up, Jimmy, and you'll be working alongside Katie Couric.

Maybe Kimmel will go the route of the late Dick Gregory.
Dick started out as a stand up comic in the 1960’s, but became immersed in the Black Power movement of that time, and stopped presenting himself as someone who wanted to make you laugh. He also lost most of his national fame.

Kimmel keeps claiming that he thinks.

But in order to draw that conclusion, he first has to assume that he thinks. Circular reasoning.

I was thinking the exact same thing about opening himself up to counterpunches. He should be careful with that.

Kimmel is not brave enough to trash anyone else that deserves it.

"....'I don’t think you can go too far,' Kimmel says...."

I agree.

I will go so far as to not watch the Oscar show.

He doesn’t think he can “go too far”? No, he doesn’t have to go too far. Just go away with your infantile blatherings. People who have to put other [highly productive] people down to make a living are talentless buffoons.

Public people especially Presidents have been fodder for razzing, just general tweaking for ever.....so bring in the clowns......Letterman got down right ugly, far from funny in his remarks about Sarah Palin and her family.....he was tuned out and turned off.

When Kimmel gets ugly about President Trump and his family, which should be off limits...just tune him out and turn him out.

“What kind of adult calls himself Jimmy. “

Jimmy Doolittle, Jimmy Stewart...but I understand your point. This assmunch is a smartass 13 year old..not an adult.
