Jimmy Kimmel, the seasoned late-night TV host, once again took aim at Donald Trump, critiquing the former president for his recent off-topic remarks concerning water conservation.
During the Tuesday episode of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!," Kimmel highlighted Trump's seemingly erratic transition from addressing significant issues to fixating on non-existent problems, specifically his opposition to water conservation efforts.
Kimmel, known for his sharp wit and political satire, expressed disbelief at Trump's preoccupation with domestic chores, questioning whether the former president, known for his luxurious lifestyle, has ever engaged in mundane tasks such as laundry or dishwashing. "For a man who has never done his own laundry, he is very concerned about this washing," Kimmel quipped, casting doubt on Trump's familiarity with household appliances and chores.
The late-night comedian, not one to shy away from political commentary, played a clip of Trump's comments and humorously pondered the likelihood of Trump ever having operated a washing machine or dishwasher.
Kimmel's jest about Trump's detachment from everyday tasks extended to a hypothetical scenario where he'd pay a substantial sum to witness Trump attempting to load a dishwasher.
The exchange between Kimmel and Trump is part of an ongoing feud, with Trump previously expressing anticipation for Kimmel's potential retirement from late-night television. Trump's critique of Kimmel, shared on Truth Social, suggested that a more talented and cost-effective replacement could yield better ratings than what he deemed Kimmel's lackluster performance.
Kimmel, undeterred by Trump's barbs, addressed the criticism on his show, humorously lamenting the potential loss of Trump's commentary should he face incarceration.
Kimmel's reflections on his future in late-night TV have sparked speculation about his eventual departure. Despite the demanding nature of his role and the exhaustion that accompanies the relentless pace of show business, Kimmel remains a pivotal figure in late-night television, known for his ability to navigate the intricate landscape of comedy and political discourse.
As he prepares to host the upcoming Oscars ceremony, Kimmel continues to solidify his legacy as a versatile entertainer capable of tackling a wide array of topics with humor and insight.
