Donald Trump attacks Jimmy Kimmel over Oscars jab: 'This guy’s even dumber than I thought'


Donald Trump is taking shots at Jimmy Kimmel for reading his post during the Oscars: 'This guy’s even dumber than I thought. The thing went viral, it’s been all over the world now, and all he had to do is keep his mouth shut.'

In an interview with Fox News’ Howard Kurtz on Sunday, the former president once again criticized Jimmy Kimmel ’s hosting style and explained why he posted inflammatory comments during the Academy Awards. After Kimmel read the Truth Social post during the live awards show, he took a jab at Trump: "I'm surprised you're still [up] — isn’t it past your jail time?" In an interview with Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos the following morning, the Jimmy Kimmel Live host said he was advised not to read Trump’s message during the ceremony.
