20 MINUTES AGO: Jimmy Kimmel TORCHES Donald Trump in a blistering monologue over his vile comments about the tragic murder of Rob Reiner — delivering one of the most scathing takedowns yet on late-night television.
Late-Night Host Jimmy Kimmel delivered a blistering monologue criticizing former President Donald Trump over comments Trump made amid online controversy surrounding the reported killing of filmmaker Rob Reiner.
During his show, Kimmel condemned what he described as cruel and inflammatory rhetoric, warning viewers about the consequences of normalizing such language from political leaders.
“That corroded brain is in charge of our lives,” Kimmel said, urging Americans to reflect on the kind of leadership they support.
He added that voters should feel free to reconsider their choices if they are uncomfortable with the tone and conduct being displayed.
Kimmel also spoke personally about Reiner, saying that based on his own interactions with the filmmaker, Reiner would have wanted the public to continue calling out what Kimmel labeled “loathsome atrocities” in political discourse.
The host argued that silence only enables behavior that undermines basic decency and accountability.
The monologue quickly went viral, amplifying criticism of Trump’s remarks and reigniting debate over the boundaries of political rhetoric, especially when tragedy is involved.
While backlash has largely come from Trump’s critics, Kimmel’s comments appeared to resonate beyond the usual lines, with some viewers saying the moment felt like a turning point.
As reactions continue to spread online, the controversy is adding fresh pressure on political figures and media personalities alike to confront how far is too far — and whether repeated outrage is finally beginning to change minds.
