From the Daily Mail: Outspoken Donald Trump critic Jimmy Kimmel said he would ‘love’ to have the President on his show amid his tumbling ratings.
The late night host was discussing his return to the screen after his show was temporarily axed over his comments about the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
The remarks prompted an outcry, followed by celebrations from Trump when it was announced that Kimmel was being yanked off air.
The TV host was reinstated a week later, but has recorded sliding ratings ever since with viewership down more than 70 percent in his first week since his return.
In his first interview since the scandal, Kimmel told the Bloomberg Screentime Conference: ‘I’d love to have Trump on the show, for sure.’
“I don’t know…alright I’ll ask him,” he stammered.
When Kimmel made his triumphant return to his show after being banned for a week, a whopping 6.5 million viewers tuned in to watch the drama.
Since then, viewership has plummeted, down to just 1.2 million last Thursday.
When Kimmel’s show was first suspended last month, President Trump wrote in a Truth Social post, “Great News for America: The ratings challenged Jimmy Kimmel Show is CANCELLED. Congratulations to ABC for finally having the courage to do what had to be done. Kimmel has ZERO talent, and worse ratings than even Colbert, if that’s possible. That leaves Jimmy and Seth, two total losers, on Fake News NBC. Their ratings are also horrible. Do it NBC!!! President DJT.”
Kimmel prompted fresh outrage this week after he mocked prayer.
“Our Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, he said Republicans are praying it will be a very short shutdown, which is good. That’ll help. Prayer,” he sneered.
Pinhead Jimmy Kimmel is now openly mocking Christians.
“Our Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, he said Republicans are praying it will be a very short shutdown, which is good. That’ll help. Prayer.”
