ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel came up with one of the most pathetic lies imaginable while deciding to defend his wicked joke about President Trump.
As The Gateway Pundit’s Kristinn Taylor reported, Kimmel previously made an assassination joke about First Lady Melania Trump and her husband President Donald Trump, saying she looked like an “expectant widow.”
This happened just two days before another deranged terrorist tried to take out the president.
“And of course, our first lady, Melania, is here. Look at Mel, so beautiful. Mrs. Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow,” Kimmel said during a mock White House Correspondent’s dinner last week.
“You know, Melania’s birthday is on Sunday,” he added. “That’s right. She’s uh, planning to celebrate at home the same way she always does, looking out a window and whispering, “What have I done?”
“As you’re all aware, Melania is a movie star now. Her documentary had a score of 10% on Rotten Tomatoes, which is a website named after her husband’s testicles.”
This ‘joke’ generated such widespread outrage that both the President and First Lady issued scathing statements condemning Kimmel. President Trump also called on ABC to fire the alleged ‘comedian.’
On Monday night, Kimmel not only defended his sick words, but astoundingly claimed that he was just talking about Donald and Melania’s age difference.
Is that the best lie he could come up with?
“It was a very light roast joke about the fact that he’s almost 80 and she’s younger than I am,” Kimmel fibbed. “It was not by any stretch of the definition a call to assassination. And they know that.”
“I’ve been very vocal for many years speaking out against gun violence, in particular,” he continued. “But I understand that the First Lady had a stressful experience over the weekend and probably every weekend is pretty stressful in that house?”
