You won’t believe what Kimmel had to say.
Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel, a longtime critic of former President Donald Trump, is now blaming the political left for Trump’s massive rise in popularity.
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Kimmel suggested that liberal outrage culture—especially attacks on comedians—helped fuel Trump’s support base.
“A lot of the outrage is completely manufactured,” Kimmel admitted. “The same liberals who go after comedians are the ones who helped make Trump president.”
Kimmel Turns on the Left—But Still Attacks Trump Voters
Despite pointing the finger at his own side, Kimmel couldn’t resist returning to his usual talking points. The late-night host, who actively campaigned for Democrats in 2024, used the interview to once again insult conservative voters and mock traditional values.
Kimmel—who infamously broke into tears on-air after Trump’s 2024 victory—said Trump supporters care about “stupid stuff,” such as protecting women’s sports from transgender athletes.
“I just don’t understand how Americans support this,” Kimmel said, referring to common-sense issues like fair competition in athletics.
That comment is likely to offend many everyday Americans—especially parents and athletes—who believe in biological fairness and traditional values.
Late-Night Host Calls Conservatives “Animals”
In a shocking statement, Kimmel described Republican voters as “a bunch of animals,” claiming that the GOP no longer has any “decency.”
For millions of Americans who fly the flag, honor the Constitution, and pray for the country, that kind of language is not only insulting—it reveals how out-of-touch Hollywood elites have become.
Ironically, Kimmel insisted he still flies the American flag on Independence Day:
“I’m never going to stop doing that,” he said. “I’m never going to let them have that symbol.”
Hypocrisy on Display: Kimmel Defends Cancel Culture—Then Says He’s Against It
Kimmel attempted to strike a balance in the interview, saying he doesn’t believe in canceling comedians like Dave Chappelle. Yet he regularly uses his platform to ridicule conservatives, Trump voters, and Christian Americans.
“There is no black and white in comedy,” he said. “Nobody should be canceled.”
Still, his show often walks the fine line between satire and open hostility toward Middle America. In recent months, viewers have walked away from late-night television in record numbers—many citing political bias as the reason.
“Choose Your Fighter”? Kimmel Mocks Cringeworthy Democrat Video
Kimmel also took aim at fellow liberals after Democratic lawmakers posted a bizarre “Choose Your Fighter” video that looked like a children’s skit. The video showed female congresswomen jumping into fighting poses, complete with video-game-style graphics.
Kimmel didn’t hold back.
“It looks like something the PTA would make for a luncheon,” he said. “It’s got to be better than that.”
Final Thoughts: Americans Are Tired of the Hollywood Echo Chamber
Jimmy Kimmel’s comments reflect a growing divide between media elites and everyday Americans. While he briefly acknowledged that liberal outrage helped boost Trump’s popularity, he still went on to belittle the very voters who made Trump’s victories possible.
As millions of Americans continue to reject the coastal elite mindset, Kimmel’s brand of comedy feels increasingly outdated.
With trust in media at all-time lows and support for traditional values on the rise, voices like his may be fading into irrelevance—no matter how loud they shout.
