Jimmy Kimmel: American People Have Had Enough Trump-Bashing
breitbart ^ | BEN KEW

Posted on 05/13/2018 11:32:17 AM PDT by davikkm

Late-night comedian Jimmy Kimmel says that the American people have had enough of the type of anti-Trump humor that he regularly spews and that it is now time for him to “make fun of ourselves.” In an interview with Deadline, Kimmel was asked whether he had prepared a “barrelful of barbs” for President Trump in his upcoming standup routine for ABC’s upfronts.

“Oh, wow. Yeah, you know, I hadn’t really thought about it that way, but I guess you’re right. Hopefully, it’ll be the last upfront of the Trump era, too,” Kimmel said.

“So, I don’t know, I don’t know how much focus there will be on that. I think people have had an ass-full of Donald Trump, and I feel like the upfront is a time to look within and make fun of ourselves,” Kimmel said of his comedy routine for the annual event that sees major advertisers gather to purchase airtime on networks, like ABC, ahead of the summer and fall TV seasons.

Kimmel went on to say that although his upcoming routine will not be a “Trump-free zone,” it will not be so focused on events in and around the White House.

Sadly, taxpayer funded NPR didn’t get the memo. NPR is relentless in advancing their anti-Trump lib narrative. And they do this with funding from the American People. This is disgusting and should be ended.

Tell your elected representative that we must end taxpayer funding for NPR and their hate.

Next, we take on their anti-American corporate sponsors.

Bait and switch, tone down that partisan rhetoric while soliciting sponsors and then give the lib critics and bloggers what they want.

Well, DOJ can make the Disney, Comcast desire for Newscorp assets difficult.

ABC is Disney.

And don’t forget, AT&T wants CNN.

The despicable corps will ride out low ratings to bash Trump and conservatives.

NBC, MSNBC is Comcast.
ABC, ESPN is Disney.

Umm...that isn’t what his quote says at all.

His quote says that people are tired of Donald Trump. It does not say people are tired of him bashing Donald Trump. There is no way that dimwit is self-aware enough to come to such a realization.

Kimmel’s ratings ARE in the dumpster.

People have had an “ass-full” of the Pillsbury doughboy, aka Jimmy Kimmel.

Oh yea like anyone’s going to believe this guy....Looks like ol TV pundits are instead getting sick and tired of hearing their own selves spewing this stuff in the face of the otherwise evidence.and really how ridiculous they sound.

Johnny Carson’s old Tonight Show is back on the air and is a far superior program, dated content and all, than this crap on now. I cannot tell where he stands on politics as he makes fun of people on both sides equally - and he’s making fun, not bashing them to score a political agenda.

It is on a network called Antenna TV which is an over the air broadcast station.

The world needs wannabe’s
So do that brand new thing

Give it to me baby
Give it to me baby
Give it to me baby

And all the girls say I’m pretty fly (for a white guy)

So don’t debate, a player straight
You know he really doesn’t get it anyway

He’s gonna play the field, and keep it real
For you no way, for you no way

So if you don’t rate, just overcompensate
At least you’ll know you can always go on Ricki Lake

The world needs wannabe’s
The world loves wannabe’s
So let’s get some more wannabe’s
And do that brand new thing

This is proof that Trump has broken Hollywood. Even SNL has stopped bashing him.
