"How about this: I'll go when you go, okay?"
"Let's ride off into the sunset together like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. And until then, if I may borrow a phrase from you ... Quiet, piggy."
"Why does ABC Fake News keep Jimmy Kimmel, a man with NO TALENT and VERY POOR TELEVISION RATINGS, on the air? Why do the TV Syndicates put up with it? Also, totally biased coverage. Get the bum off the air!!!"
"It's viewers like you who keep us on the air, ironically."
Jimmy Kimmel responded to Donald Trump's call to fire him by saying he would leave only when Trump does, joking they could "ride off into the sunset" and borrowing the phrase "Quiet, piggy." Kimmel said he saw Trump's Truth Social tirade after criticizing Trump's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files. Trump accused ABC of being "Fake News," questioned Kimmel's talent and ratings, and demanded the network "Get the bum off the air." Kimmel noted the post's timing — 12:49 a.m. ET, 11 minutes after his show ended — and referenced a prior September pull of his show after affiliate pressure and FCC criticism.
