Jimmy Kimmel on Matt Gaetz’s Attorney General Nomination: In Trump Administration, ‘Being Investigated for Sex Trafficking Underage Girls’ Can Be Listed Under ‘Special Skills’


Jimmy Kimmel blasted Donald Trump's cabinet picks during Wednesday night's episode of 'Jimmy Kimmel Live,' saying "the clown car is filling up fast."

“We thought it would be crazy — it is so much crazier than anyone ever imagined,” Kimmel said, pointing specifically to Matt Gaetz, the U.S. representative from Florida who Trump nominated for attorney general. Kimmel went on to call Trump’s other picks, which have included Fox News host Pete Hegseth as secretary of defense and former U.S. representative Tulsi Gabbard as director of national intelligence, “the legion of dumb.” He then showed a clip of Hegseth participating in an axe-throwing competition during a Fox News segment and missing the target, nearly injuring a musician playing nearby.
