Jimmy Kimmel said on Thursday night that President Donald Trump is losing his touch with his latest social media rant.
“He fired up his phone bright and early this morning and hopped on board the bipolar express starting at 5:50 a.m. with this,” Kimmel said, and read the president’s message attacking Democrats for “saying over and over again that the Trump administration is corrupt.”
Kimmel feigned outrage.
“Now hold on,” he said. “Nobody ever said that. We would never say anything like that. That would be very, very rude.”
Trump accused Democrats of being “corrupt and evil,” and demanded an end to the filibuster so that “the Republican Senate can no longer be the place where things are sent to die.”
“I could not agree with that more,” Kimmel said. “We need to send Mitch McConnell back home to Kentucky immediately.”
Trump also claimed ― as he has in years past, often right before elections ― that “huge caravans” of migrants were heading toward the U.S. border.
“Oh man, this is getting pathetic,” Kimmel said. “He’s lost his mojo. He’s repeating himself. He’s shrieking about caravans and ballrooms and evil Democrats, and nobody’s listening. It’s sad. It’s like when you see Joe Namath in a commercial for hearing aids.”
