In reply to sheron.hermann. Totally disagree! What he said was not in the least bit comical or humorous! Wonder how "Mr. Wonderful Kimmel" would feel if someone said that to his wife regarding her and her husband?! Jimmy Kimmel is a PIG! There is nothing funny about him or anything he says!!! The idiot needs to grow up!!!

In reply to billy.williamson1995. Who watcher trash like that ? I have better things to do with my time LIKE praying for our first lady and our president. I would like to see what would happen if he made fun of the Biden family. By the way why does no one ever try to shoot a democrat ? I guess because republicans do do things like that ! Only one ever shot was President John Kennedy in todays world he would have BEEN A REPUBLIICAN. that is why he was shot.

more concerned about gas prices and health insurance than hurting the feelings of someone who post “they are glad someone has died”

In reply to janita.lebsack1978. Yeah, I get what you're saying. Jokes about the president and his family, especially live, can seriously backfire. There's always some diehard supporters who might take it the wrong way or overreact. Comedy's a fine line these days.

Oh, sure, why can’t the First Lady just ignore it? Because calling Kimmel out like that definitely *doesn’t* just give more attention to the joke and *obviously* makes her look like she can’t take a joke herself. Totally makes perfect sense!

This whole thing is just another example of the double standards in media. 🤥 When others mock Trump, it’s a crime 🚫, but insults against other politicians are brushed off. 🤷‍♂️ Hypocrisy everywhere. 🙄

In reply to clifford.conroy88. I get why some might find the joke harsh, but it's also part of satire to push boundaries. Still, comedy should punch up, not down, and maybe Kimmel crossed a line by joking about something so serious.

In reply to clifton.johnson86. I don't find that particularly serious.

In light of the assassination attempt Kimmel might want to do something that Trump would never do in his situation and apologize for the fact that his joke could have been interpreted as a reference to an assassination, but that he didn’t intend it that way. It would show who is the bigger man.
