President Trump is claiming that late-night hosts Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon will be the “next to go” if he has his way, following the shock announcement that CBS will permanently retire the Stephen Colbert-helmed Late Show next year.
“The word is, and it’s a strong word at that, Jimmy Kimmel is NEXT to go in the untalented Late Night Sweepstakes and, shortly thereafter, Fallon will be gone,” Trump wrote on Truth social on Tuesday of the comedians, both of whom regularly mock the president on their shows. “These are people with absolutely NO TALENT, who were paid Millions of Dollars for, in all cases, destroying what used to be GREAT Television. It’s really good to see them go, and I hope I played a major part in it!”
