Kimmel Fires Back at Trump Over Marriage Joke

0:00On April 29, Jimmy Kimmel is firing back at Donald Trump after the former president demanded his firing over a recent joke. On his late night show, Kimmel played a clip of Trump making his own edgy remark to highlight the double standard. The video came from Trump's event welcoming King Charles to the United States. There, Trump talked about his parents' 63-year marriage, then turned to Melania and said their record won't be matched. Trump's call-out sparked big backlash from his supporters, who accused Kimmel of crossing lines with his original comment. Critics painted it as dangerous, but Kimmel shut that down quick. In his prior episode, Kimmel made it clear his joke was no call for assassination, saying everyone knows better than that stretch. This back and forth shows how late-night TV and politics keep clashing in unexpected ways. That's the story for today. Entertainment and celebrity news, today driven by AI. I'm Corey with The Story.
