Kamala Harris visited Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show on Wednesday, December 17, and the pair had a lot to say about the newly installed plaques at the White House that insult former United States presidents.
Before the former vice president’s arrival at Jimmy Kimmel Live!, new plaques added to the Presidential Walk of Fame at the White House were unveiled. Under a photo of Joe Biden, the former president was referred to as “Sleepy Joe,” and under a picture of Barack Obama, Trump wrote that the former president was “one of the most divisive political figures in American History.”

During the 107 Days author’s conversation with Kimmel, 58, she slammed Trump’s latest installment at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
“I spent so much time in the White House,” said Harris, 61. “The idea that those plaques would have been placed by a president of the United States to talk about former presidents of the United States — the American people deserve better.”
Harris explained that she feels Trump and his team are “deconstructing government’s ability to have checks and balances on abuse of power,” adding that “part of the crazy is meant to distract.”

Earlier in the show, Kimmel — who openly speaks of his disdain for the 79-year-old Apprentice alum — said it “takes a special kind of lunatic to get his insults cast in bronze,” adding: “Can we please put this man in a home before he completely destroys the one he’s in now?”
During Kimmel’s opening monologue, the late-night host showed off many of the plaques written by Trump and assured his viewers that “this is not a bit.”
“It’s like Dickipedia, each entry,” Kimmel said.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed that many of the newly added plaques “were written directly by the president himself.”

Trump has come under fire in recent days for his insensitive remarks. Most recently, he commented on the brutal murders of Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner, sparking outrage for saying the legendary Hollywood director died as a result of “the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME.”
