I mean, do we have a Jesus in the house? I always confuse them, too.\u201d \u2014 JIMMY KIMMEL<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1e1r8ex evys1bk0\">\u201cI get why you think you\u2019re Jesus. This guy, every time he walks into a room, people say, \u2018Christ, he\u2019s back.\u2019\u201d \u2014 JIMMY KIMMEL<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1e1r8ex evys1bk0\">\u201cAs the president will tell you repeatedly until you beg him to stop, President Trump has accomplished so much during his second term. He passed new incentives for oil and gas. He put the brakes on solar and wind. That will be your legacy, sir, breaking wind and passing gas.\u201d \u2014 JIMMY KIMMEL<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1e1r8ex evys1bk0\">\u201cBut I do want to praise the POTUS. Look how far you\u2019ve come. Thirty years ago you were just some rich guy on Jeffrey Epstein\u2019s private jet out of Teterboro. But you worked hard, you stayed friends, you shared some wonderful secrets and, because of that, you were able to fly on that plane seven more times. Dreams really do come true.\u201d \u2014 JIMMY KIMMEL<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1e1r8ex evys1bk0\">\u201cOh, by the way, before we go any further: Melania, this is Donald. Donald, this is Melania. That was my impression of Jeffrey Epstein.\u201d \u2014 JIMMY KIMMEL<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1e1r8ex evys1bk0\">\u201cIn all seriousness, I do want to thank the president. We are the hottest country in the world right now, and that\u2019s all because of you, sir. You truly are the G.O.A.T. and a monkey and a pig. You made America great again, and you made comedy great again, and that is why I am \u2014 I\u2019m very proud to announce the winner of the inaugural Burger King of comedy gold award goes to none other than our president, Donald J. Leno Trump. Congratulations, sir. And thank you.\u201d \u2014 JIMMY KIMMEL<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1e1r8ex evys1bk0\">\u201cThe Trump administration is reportedly in advanced talks to provide a rescue package for Spirit Airlines to help the carrier avoid liquidation. Because if Spirit Airlines goes out of business, I lose, like, half my monologue.\u201d \u2014 SETH MEYERS<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1e1r8ex evys1bk0\">\u201cAnd who better to own Spirit than the man who ran his own airline into the ground?\u201d \u2014 JIMMY KIMMEL<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1e1r8ex evys1bk0\">\u201cThey\u2019re planning to invest $500 million. What is Spirit going to do with $500 million? They have one economy plus seat and it\u2019s in the pilot\u2019s lap.\u201d \u2014 JIMMY KIMMEL<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1e1r8ex evys1bk0\">\u201cBut Donald Trump needs a miracle. His poll numbers are way down, and I for one cannot think of a better way to get Americans to rally around him than spending 500 million of our dollars to save the least popular airline in the history of the planet Earth.\u201d \u2014 JIMMY KIMMEL<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cBy the way, in the unfortunate event that our president has a medical emergency tonight, do we have&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":455571,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[265],"tags":[18,117,11722,19,17,9430,200593,9431,200595,5705,5704,1238,200594,128],"class_list":["post-455570","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-eire","tag-entertainment","tag-fallon","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-jimmy","tag-jimmy-kimmel-live-tv-program","tag-kimmel","tag-late-night-with-seth-meyers-tv-program","tag-meyers","tag-seth","tag-television","tag-the-tonight-show-tv-program","tag-tv"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/116474582506712307","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/455570","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=455570"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/455570\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/455571"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=455570"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=455570"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=455570"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
