Jimmy Kimmel used his Tuesday night monologue to mock President Donald Trump following the Republican Party's defeat in the midterm elections. Kimmel noted that Democrats took so many seats that Vice President JD Vance could not find one to have sex with him.
The comedian referenced the president’s recent comments regarding the physical attributes of public figures. Kimmel said the only ass on Trump’s mind was the one he just got handed. He pointed to the list of issues displayed on the screen behind him to explain the voting results.
Kimmel argued that the president’s priorities do not match what Americans are worried about. He stated that Trump’s approval rating is terrible and that voters are unsatisfied with the job he is doing. The comedian compared the dissatisfaction of voters to the complaints of every woman Trump has ever slept with.
A screen behind Kimmel listed the topics he said the administration was focused on. These included testosterone, windmills, ballrooms, a Black actor playing Helen of Troy, and Canada. He contrasted these with the concerns of the general public, which included corruption, inflation, housing, climate change, healthcare, and democracy.
Kimmel told the audience to refer to the list if they were wondering why things did not go the president’s way. He described the focus of Trump and his inner circle as a mix of personal quirks and political distractions that ignored the main economic and social issues facing voters.
The segment served as a direct response to the election results. Kimmel highlighted the disconnect between the administration’s stated interests and the daily realities of the American electorate. The monologue ended with a prompt for the president to review the specific items on the list.
