""I can't believe ABC Fake News gave Jimmy Kimmel his job back. The White House was told by ABC that his Show was canceled!" he said. "Why would they want someone back who does so poorly, who's not funny, and who puts the Network in jeopardy by playing 99% positive Democrat GARBAGE," he added. Trump wrote in his post that Kimmel was "another arm of the DNC" and said Kimmel's show was, to the best of his knowledge, a "major Illegal Campaign Contribution.""
"The appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" is Kimmel's first public response since ABC temporarily suspended production of the show last week. Prior to Tuesday night's show, Kimmel had not publicly addressed the suspension. In an Instagram post on Tuesday morning, Kimmel shared a photo of himself and Norman Lear, the late American screenwriter and producer who was known for championing progressive causes. "Missing this guy today," Kimmel wrote."
Jimmy Kimmel returned to ABC's late-night stage Tuesday night after production was temporarily suspended following comments about Charlie Kirk. President Donald Trump criticized ABC on Truth Social shortly before the episode aired, calling Kimmel "another arm of the DNC" and alleging a "major Illegal Campaign Contribution," while disparaging the show's quality. Kimmel posted an Instagram photo with Norman Lear and wrote "Missing this guy today." Some fans gathered outside the show's Hollywood Boulevard filming location to support his return. Sinclair and Nexstar declined to air the episode on their ABC-affiliated stations. The suspension prompted vocal public reactions and debates over free speech and media bias.
