Donald Trump says 'let Jimmy Kimmel rot' and threatens to sue ABC — again

Pres. Trump wasn't too happy about ABC's choice to bring back "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on-air following a brief suspension over Charlie Kirk comments.
www.usatoday.com

Less than an hour before "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" returns from its controversial suspension, President Donald Trump seemingly threatened to sue ABC over its decision to bring back the late-night TV host on-air.

"I can't believe ABC Fake News gave Jimmy Kimmel his job back," Trump wrote. "The White House was told by ABC that his Show was cancelled! Something happened between then and now because his audience is GONE, and his 'talent' was never there."

"Why would they want someone back who does so poorly, who's not funny, and who puts the Network in jeopardy by playing 99% positive Democrat GARBAGE," Trump continued.

Kimmel's suspension came after FCC chairman Carr seemingly threatened ABC, Disney and Kimmel during a YouTube episode of commentator Benny Johnson's show on Sept. 17 where he said, "We can do this the easy way or the hard way."

"I think we're going to test ABC out on this. Let's see how we do," Trump threatened on Tuesday, Sept. 23. "Last time I went after them, they gave me $16 Million Dollars. This one sounds even more lucrative. A true bunch of losers! Let Jimmy Kimmel rot in his bad Ratings."

He has such thin skin.

I'm wondering why someone doesn't deliberately press that button 'til he does off the deep end.

The man is nuts to begin with, temperamental and childish at the best of times, it's a short trip to insanity. Emotionally he's a child.


Take his toys away won't work, he has too many toys. What's the next best thing to do with a spoiled brat? Ignore him. Just say "**** it" and tune his creepy voice out. It's will take him over the egde.
 
He must have far more important matters to address than an online whine about a late night host.

Hey wait I have an idea, why not end the Ukraine War in 24 hours!
 
More like, the left had a temper tantrum and ended getting what they wanted.....crying, whining has power at times, huh? Anything in the attempt to gain a narrative, lol.
 

Exactly what I and others wrote after that. And similar lawsuits where they settled. They're just encouraging him, just like any other blackmailer.

Now he's threatening double-dipping at ABC. You have to stand up to bullies. The problem is...TACO has bottomless pockets...he's using OUR $$ to intimidate, coerce, and to try and violate the 1st Amendment.

That's a really good idea. Or how about lowering grocery prices on Day One?
 

All of the above simply indicates thin skinned Trump doesn't like the show.

Good.

But he's using the power of the federal government to try to silence Kimmel, a direct violation of the 1st.
 
Sue them based on what exactly? If Charlie Kirk's parents want to sue him, sure -- but what the hell does Trump have to do with this???
Its clear he's going into full dictator mode now.
Trust me, I lived in a dictatorship. This is exactly how dictatorships start.

The indication that should set off every alarm bell is this: when they stop bothering to hide their power grab. Usually, in the beginning, they still give mouth service to freedom of speech or being democratically elected, but at some point they stop fearing any backlash. At that point, they deliberately become very obvious, because now they WANT and NEED to instill FEAR into the population. THey deliberately send the message that Im in power now to stay, and there's nothing you can do about it.

Its a game of posychological dominance, to ensure the population knows who is the master and who is the slave. Thats where we are at now with Trump. Remember when told MAGA supporters that they could either shut up about Epstein, or take a hike cause he doesnt need or want their support? That was about psychological dominance, classic dictator ploy. For dictators, they make it clear that its the people than neeed to have the dictator's support in order to survive,not the other way around.

Do you have a "stickin it to the libs" mad lib that you use to formulate your replies? I ask because your replies are all very similar and rarely related to the actual thread topic.

Always amazes me how the Trump haters never see their hatred.....it's just so normal.....amnesia over the myriads of false narratives which have fallen apart over the years, only to watch them disappear as if they never happened, they fall into more false narratives, one after another. Surreal, strange and weird......we see too many following carrots, parroting each other, speaking as if anonymous sources are from God Himself.
 
Once again, you reply with a antagonistic word salad completely unrelated to the thread topic or my comment.
Thanks for proving my point.
 
Anything to divert from EpsteinGate.

Ahum..

Do you realize, even TED F-ING CRUZ, criticized Trump for trying to shut down ABC? EVEN THAT GUY, said, nope thats too far, you cant do that.

MTG, Ted Cruz, Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan-- all these people that MAGA aroes-- are starting to come out and say, Don Trump is messing up bad. There ARE still MAGA that are smarting over the Epstein file thing, btw< and dissatisfaction with the Charlie Kirk investigation is accelerating this. There is also forming a steady theory taking hold amongst EVEN MAGA that Trump has been captured by Israel, because its getting impossible to deny this fact, anD the Epstein scandal is accepted as the explanation for how Israel captured Trump.

On the other side of MAGA, are people like you. But they;re not really MAGA, and the rest of MAGA is starting to understand this. The real MAGA, the ones that existed as the Tea Party before this, and where around waaay before Trump came onto the scene -- they are one part of MAGA. The other is the Trump cultists. You are a Trump cultist.

Thats fine, but if you read the tea leaves, Trump cultism is potentially about to come to a crashing burning end. Thats the reason guys like Ted Cruz and MTG are starting to distance themselves from Trump. They are good politicians, much brighter than most Trump cultisits, and they understand that the political future of post-Trump is coming, and that Trump cultism is something that will be a major political liability within the near future. Dont believe me, believe your own MAGA superstars like MTG.

I would say there are a group of people even more whiny than Trump, and that is his supporters who lose their cookies EVERY time he is criticized.
