Jimmy Kimmel Responds to ‘Angry Orange’ President Trump’s Call to Have Him Fired: ‘I’ll Go When You Go’

Yet again, Jimmy Kimmel is not holding back when it comes to his disdain for President Donald Trump.

During the late-night host’s Thursday, November 20, monologue on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Kimmel responded to Trump’s recent Truth Social post demanding that TV networks “get the bum off the air!”

“A special hello to those of you who are watching from the White House, and you know who you are,” the 58-year-old host began, clearly referencing the president, 79.

“I woke up this morning. I’m in bed. My wife comes out of the bathroom. She’s got her phone. She goes, ‘Um, Trump tweeted you should be fired again,’” he continued. “Late last night, the Angry Orange posted, ‘Why does ABC Fake News keep Jimmy Kimmel, a man with NO TALENT and VERY POOR TELEVISION RATINGS, on the air? Why do the TV syndicates put up with it? Also, totally biased coverage. Get the bum off the air!!!’”

Kimmel then pointed out that Trump’s post was shared at 12:49 a.m., which is 11 minutes after his show ended on the East Coast.

“He watches us live!” Kimmel said. “Hi, Mr. President. How are you? Thanks for watching us on TV instead of on YouTube. We appreciate that. I’ll tell you, it’s viewers like you who keep us on the air, ironically.”

Referencing Trump’s connection to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and the release of the Epstein files, Kimmel said, “It’s also sweet that even in the middle of the biggest sex scandal in the history of the American presidency, he takes precious time on the toilet to post about our show.”

Kimmel previously mocked Trump over the Epstein emails and blasted the politician’s “Quiet, Piggy” attack on a female Bloomberg reporter when asked about the late pedophile on Air Force One.

“I have honestly lost count now of how many times the president has demanded I be pulled off the air,” Kimmel — whose show was suspended in September over comments he made following Charlie Kirk‘s death — told his audience.

“Every five weeks, he flips out and wants me fired. If you got this many threats from a neighbor, you’d have no problem getting a restraining order,” Kimmel said. “You tried to get me fired in September. It didn’t work. Mr. President, I admire your tenacity. If you’re watching tonight, which I presume you are, how about this? I’ll go when you go. We’ll be a team. Let’s ride off into the sunset together like ‘Butch Cassidy and the Suntan Kid.’ Until then, if I may borrow a phrase from you: Quiet, Piggy.”
