ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel is in serious trouble with the First Lady.
Melania Trump rarely enters the political fray.
And that’s because Jimmy Kimmel called Melania Trump one bad name that will make you sick as hell.
As American Patriot Daily reports:
Days before a gunman charged the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner and allegedly tried to assassinate President Trump, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel aired a skit where he pretended to host the event and performed a comedy routine.
The sketch showed clips of First Lady Melania Trump and the couple’s son Barron sitting in an audience, and Kimmel joked that Melania looked like she was waiting for Trump to die.
“Mrs Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow,” Kimmel stated.

Many Americans didn’t find the joke funny to begin with.
Trump already survived two attempts on his life, including one where a would-be assassin shot him in the head in an attempted public execution.
The joke was even less funny when, days later, a man who donated to Kamala Harris’ 2024 Presidential campaign attempted a third assassination.

But Kimmel joking that she wanted to see her husband dead was a line she felt shouldn’t get crossed.
In a post on social media, Melania slammed Kimmel for “violent and hateful” rhetoric that she argued helps create the toxic environment that causes Democrats to keep trying to kill her husband.
“Kimmel’s hateful and violent rhetoric is intended to divide our country. His monologue about my family isn’t comedy- his words are corrosive and deepen the political sickness within America,” Melania wrote. “People like Kimmel shouldn’t have the opportunity to enter our homes each evening to spread hate.”
Melania then argued that “enough is enough” and that ABC should fire Kimmel.
“A coward, Kimmel hides behind ABC because he knows the network will keep running cover to protect him. Enough is enough. It is time for ABC to take a stand. How many times will ABC’s leadership enable Kimmel’s atrocious behaviour at the expense of our community?” Melania concluded.
ABC suspended Kimmel last fall for falsely claiming that Charlie Kirk’s assassin was part of the “MAGA gang.”
With his contract set to expire next May, ABC may just try to ride out the storm and end Kimmel’s show in May 2027.
