Jimmy Kimmel said President Donald Trump’s disastrous Oval Office meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy last week was “about as embarrassing as it gets.”
“This might’ve been Trump’s most mortifying moment yet, and this is a guy who suggested we inject bleach into our bodies,” Kimmel said.
Trump and Vice President JD Vance berated Zelenskyy in a meeting held in front of reporters and broadcast on television.
“Even his aides said they hadn’t seen Trump yelling at a foreigner like that since the last time Melania locked him out of the bedroom,” Kimmel cracked. “Which was Wednesday, but still.”
Kimmel called it a “very low moment” for the United States as Trump effectively took Russian President Vladimir Putin’s side in the war with Ukraine.
The scene was “so humiliating,” Kimmel said, that Trump’s allies had to rush to claim otherwise on TV, with one Fox News personality saying he should get the Nobel Peace Prize.
“How far can these people bend over?” Kimmel asked. “Let’s give him the Heisman too while we’re at it.”
He added that siding with Trump is now basically the same as siding with Putin.
“At this point, whenever Rocky IV comes on TBS, every Republican is required to root for Drago,” he said.
