Jimmy Kimmel<\/a> revealed he has obtained Italian citizenship as he lamented Donald Trump\u2019s second term in office.<\/a><\/p>\n The talk show host, 57, has been a longtime critic of the president. Kimmel was appearing on his ex-girlfriend Sarah Silverman\u2019s podcast<\/a> when she observed that many Americans who don\u2019t approve of Trump have sought citizenship elsewhere.<\/p>\n \u201cI do have… I did get Italian citizenship,\u201d responded Kimmel. \u201cI do have that.\u201d<\/p>\n He continued: \u201cWhat\u2019s going on is… as bad as you thought it was gonna be, it\u2019s so much worse. It\u2019s just unbelievable. I feel like it\u2019s probably even worse than [Trump] would like it to be.\u201d<\/p>\n open image in gallery<\/p>\n Jimmy Kimmel has spoke out, again, against President Donald Trump saying his second term \u2018so much worse\u2019 (Mindy Small\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n Kimmel added that he has no ill will towards former Trump supporters who are reconsidering their position, saying: \u201cThere are a lot of people… now you see these clips of Joe Rogan saying: \u2018Why\u2019s he doing this? He shouldn\u2019t be deporting people.\u2019 People go: \u2018F*** you, you supported him.\u2019 I don\u2019t buy into that. I don\u2019t believe \u2018F*** you, you supported him.\u2019 <\/p>\n \u201cI think the door needs to stay open,\u201d Kimmel said. \u201cIf you want to change your mind, that\u2019s so hard to do. If you want to admit you were wrong, that\u2019s so hard and so rare to do. You are welcome.\u201d<\/p>\n In April, popular podcaster Rogan spoke out against Trump\u2019s deportation policies.<\/a> He had previously endorsed the president hours prior to the last election.<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cYou’ve gotta get scared that people who are not criminals are getting, like, lassoed up and deported and sent to El Salvador prisons,\u201d Rogan said.<\/p>\n Rogan called that possibility \u201chorrific\u201d and admitted sending non-criminals out of the country as part of the Trump administration\u2019s attempts to crack down on the Tren de Aragua gang was \u201cbad for the cause.\u201d<\/p>\n open image in gallery<\/p>\n Trump has doubled down on his claim that Kimmel and fellow late night host Jimmy Fallon will be next in line to lose their jobs as networks begin to shy away from criticizing his administration. (AP)<\/p>\n Last week, Trump doubled down on his claim that Kimmel and fellow late night host Jimmy Fallon will be next in line to lose their jobs as networks begin to shy away from criticizing his administration.<\/a><\/p>\n With Paramount moving earlier this summer to cancel CBS\u2019s The Late Show with <\/a>Stephen Colbert<\/a>, Trump was asked at a recent press conference about \u201cshock jock\u201d Howard Stern<\/a>\u2019s Sirius XM radio show reportedly being brought to an end<\/a> and whether that meant anti-Trump comedy was facing extinction.\u201cWell, it hasn\u2019t worked,\u201d the president said. \u201cAnd it hasn\u2019t worked, really, for a long time, and I would say pretty much from the beginning. Colbert has no talent.<\/p>\n \u201cI mean, I could take anybody here. I could go outside in the beautiful streets and pick a couple of people that do just as well or better. They\u2019d get higher ratings than he did. He\u2019s got no talent.<\/p>\n \u201cFallon has no talent. Kimmel has no talent. They\u2019re next. They\u2019re going to be going. I hear they\u2019re going to be going. I don\u2019t know, but I would imagine because they\u2019d get \u2013 you know, Colbert has better ratings than Kimmel or Fallon.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Your support helps us to tell the story From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":336952,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3937],"tags":[77,382,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-338319","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-tv","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115015574237768178","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/338319","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=338319"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/338319\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/336952"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=338319"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=338319"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=338319"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Jimmy](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-1799790452.jpeg\")
