Jimmy Kimmel: Donald Trump Jr. an ‘idiot,’ ‘imbecile’ whose job is to tweet
2017-10-15
[WASHINGTONTIMES] Late-night talk show host and frequent President Trump critic Jimmy Kimmel had a few choice words for the president’s oldest son Friday, calling Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
Jr. an "imbecile" who does little more than tweeting.

In an interview aired Friday on "Good Morning America," Mr. Kimmel addressed Mr. Trump Jr.’s recent attacks against him for not addressing the Harvey Weinstein scandal on his show sooner. The first son criticized Mr. Kimmel, who has spoken out on his show about controversial topics like gun control and health care, for not addressing the numerous sexual harassment allegations against the disgraced Hollywood mogul immediately after the news initially broke.

"He’s an idiot, let’s just start with that," Mr. Kimmel fired back during his interview. "This is an imbecile whose job seems to be tweeting as far as I can tell."

"Harvey Weinstein is ... not a friend of mine," the late-night host explained. "I’m not in the movie business. And I’ll add that story came out, like, I think moments before we went to tape on Thursday, and we didn’t have a show on Friday."

Mr. Kimmel also said he wouldn’t mind hosting the president on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" so he could take a shot at changing the president’s mind on a few things.

"Absolutely, I have a lot of questions for Donald Trump," Mr. Kimmel told ABC News’ Amy Robach after she asked if he’d host the president on his show.

"I would guess that he’s not planning to visit me anytime soon," Mr. Kimmel admitted.

"Maybe this is crazy, but I feel like I could turn him around on a couple of things," he said. "I think he needs to be surrounded by better people. ... I just think he’s changed positions so frequently."

"I want to know what happened to the Donald Trump ... who was a Democrat?" he added.

#4  This as opposed to Kimmel's line of work, which involves finding obvious targets of ridicule so that his dumbest watcher can follow his jokes.

#3  Kimmel doesn't have anyone watching him who would boycott him.

Local affiliates may find other alternatives that may bring better ad revenue than the network offered default. If the network demands the air time, anti-trust investigation needs to follow.

#2  Kimmel doesn't have anyone watching him who would boycott him. More than that, Kimmel might be in the crosshairs of this Weinstein scandal himself when everything collapses. He did some Comedy Central Roasts, I wonder if he ever referenced Harvey in them.

#1  Trump will rip Kimmel a new asshole in the upcoming weeks on Twitter, the best platform for opposing these lefty douchebags. Kimmel seems unaware of his success at the NFL's 'social justice' protests; let him suffer the consequences.
