Jimmy Kimmel wasted no time on his late-night talk show addressing Donald Trump’s attacks over the weekend. The former President of the United States said in a rally that Kimmel’s show was “dead” because Republicans stopped watching him.

You can watch Kimmel’s monologue in the video posted above. Kimmel said that his wife started receiving text messages “asking if we saw what Trump said.” “I got no texts.

She got a lot of them. Turns out Fiberace gave me a shout-out during one of his blue-collar comedy tours,” Kimmel said. “And I have to say, sometimes it feels like he doesn’t like me that much.” At a Trump rally in Pennsylvania the former The Apprentice host said, “I saw Jimmy Kimmel say that his show is practically dead because nobody that likes Trump will watch.

And guess what? That turned out to be a majority of the people — the show is dead and so are the other [late-night shows].” After watching the clip, Kimmel threw in a jab back adding, “Our show is so dead he’s gonna bury it next to his ex-wife at one of his golf courses.
