"This is not just Republican versus Democrat for me anymore. It is, to me, it's family values and it's really hard for me because I grew up believing in these Christian ideals of taking care of the sick and taking care of the poor and I don't see that happening with this Republican party.

"Earlier this year, Kimmel and Trump's ongoing feud intensified when ABC indefinitely removed Jimmy Kimmel Live! from its schedule under pressure from the president's administration. During Kimmel's suspension for his remarks about the reaction to the death of right-wing pundit Charlie Kirk, Trump publicly celebrated the decision, congratulating the network for finally having the courage to do what had to be done."
"It hurts me so much because of the personal relationship I now have where my husband is out there fighting this man. And to me, them voting for Trump is them not voting for my husband and me and our family. I have lost relationships with people in my family because of it.
