No More ‘Teflon’ Don: Kimmel Revels in Trump’s Conviction

Jimmy Kimmel was delighted to see Trump face legal consequences and speculated on what the former president’s sentence might be.

Donald Trump was found guilty on Thursday (on all 34 counts) for falsifying business records, in a historic conclusion to his seven-week criminal trial. He’s made the record books for becoming the first former president to ever be officially declared a convicted felon—and while Republicans might be furious at the news, late-night host Jimmy Kimmel could not be more thrilled. Kimmel showed viewers Eric Trump’s post-verdict tweet, which claimed that, “May 30th, 2024 might be remembered as the day Donald J. Trump won the 2024 Presidential Election.” Kimmel responded, “Or it will be remembered as the day a jury in New York spanked your dad even harder than Stormy did with that Forbes magazine.”
