  1. > “What we need at a time like this, besides common sense when it comes to guns and mental health care, is compassion and leadership. We did not get that from our president, because he has none of it to give. Instead, we got a fool rambling about nonsense,” Kimmel said. “For Rob and Michele Reiner, we got this post.”

    > “It’s so hateful and vile,” Kimmel said of the post. “When I first saw it, I thought it was fake. My wife showed it to me this morning. I was like, ‘Even for him, that seemed like too much.’ But nothing is ever too much for him.”

    > “That corroded brain is in charge of our lives,” Kimmel said. “If you voted for that, it’s okay to reconsider. It’s perfectly fine. I have to say, I know from my personal interactions with Rob Reiner that he would want us to keep pointing out the loathsome atrocities that continue to ooze out of this sick and irresponsible man’s mouth. So we’re going to do that over and over again until the rest of us wake up.”

  2. “The Onion” never stood a chance in this current circus of a reality.

  3. He may have power over it to a certain degree, but that pathetic, old piece of garbage isn’t in charge of my life.

  5. A piece of human garbage is the President of the United States, that is the present situation of America.

  6. “Hateful and vile” is too gentle. “Demented and evil” starts getting closer, but not enough as well. “Mentally sick and narcissistic” might be a tad closer. That man needs to be under care in an asylum, not the White House.

  7. Sounds less like a “slam” and more like a dispassionate, objective observation. It’s just a matter of fact.

  8. I genuinely love how much Trumpists hate Jimmy Kimmel even though he is one of the most moderate people on tv. (Unless you’re a far right Trumpist)

  9. Easy Kimmel, you’ll get canceled again and then capitulate and cry once you get it back 🙄

    (No I don’t like 47)

  10. He’s in charge of jimmy life and mind, sad. I don’t walk around thinking the president is in charge of me.

  11. Everyone should go watch House of Dynamite if you haven’t already, and you’ll realize Kimmel’s statement “that corroded brain is in charge of our lives” is far scarier and far truer than most people realize. The decision in that movie will be up to that corroded brain and all the completely inept and unqualified sycophants, Fox News hosts, and right wing extremists that he’s installed in every position of power.

  13. Trumps appointed Hollywood ambassador Sylvester Stallone may have to step in and smooth things over in the Hollywood community. Between Hollywoods beautiful tributes and trumps vile post, there should be no problem bringing them together.

    Good luck, Sly. 😃👍
