Jimmy Kimmel roasts Trump at alternative White House Correspondents' Dinner

comedyApr 27, 20266010,744

Jimmy Kimmel delivered a scathing monologue at an alternative White House Correspondents' Dinner, roasting former President Donald Trump and calling his supporters "MAGA minions." Kimmel included a joke referring to Melania Trump as an "expectant widow," and Melania publicly urged ABC to "take a stand" over that line. Jimmy Kimmel Live published the full roast as a video. The exchange matters because it puts a high-profile late-night host directly at odds with a former first family and pressures networks to set boundaries for political mockery on entertainment programming.

If Melania wants Jimmy Kimmel fired for hateful rhetoric, someone should introduce her to her husband

I'm sick of being lectured by that family of assholes.

Don't remember her or her husband telling Rush Limbaugh to stop with his hateful rhetoric.

The First Lady campaigning against online bullying when her husband is the biggest online bully on the planet.

Just going to repost this here

You mean the guy who was happy Bob Mueller passed away? Or thought the Reiners heinous murder was because they spoke truth about trump? The guy who threatened to wipe out a civilization?

My mind whenever Melania speaks: I really don’t care.

I am not sure when Kimmel made [this] comment, but if it was post assassination attempt it is, at best, in very poor taste. But in the context of Trump, I find it hard to get to worked up about it. How many deaths, including violent ones has Trump celebrated?

barbstc.bsky.social13

How about her trip to the Boarder...she seemed pretty disgusting to me.

I demand she’s deported for being an illegal lying Ho but apparently that’s not going to happen either!

hattrickhenry.bsky.social8

Who cares what she wants? I really don’t care.

Hey Melania, just a reminder: your criminal sociopath husband called political opponents “vermin,” accused the media of being “enemies of the people,” likened the Obamas to apes, said immigrant groups were from shit hole countries & eating people’s pets in Ohio. Gaslighting runs in your family.

Kelly Bertram AKA Bravo5

Now she wants a distraction. She can go fuck herself. They are all a bunch of con artists.

Teri5

Wait! I know someone who "may" be able to help... but I might be wrong. 🤡

robin2800.bsky.social4

She didn’t come out and speak against her husband, threatening an entire civilization with death. These people see themselves is so entitled and fucking full of themselves.

design3.bsky.social4

Those people are to self absorbed to even realize what they just floated out to the public.

Bill Dean 🇺🇦🌻🇺🇸4

She fooking hates Christmas so...

lsula.bsky.social4

Does anyone believe she actually wrote that? I have a bridge to sell them

Adlady Ginny4

Amen!! His hateful response to Robert Mueller’s death certainly says it all!

Grant Olsen4

Neither Mel nor Don would travel across 6 states to meet each other without some sort of transaction involved. Quite the couple.

Joy🦋💙🇺🇦🫶4

She should talk!🤨 How much has her husband, Trump divided our country with all his lies, bullying and disrespect that he spews at people!!! How Trump is dividing our country i.e. helping (somewhat) red states and the heck with blue states!!! I don't want to hear her at all!!!🤨

JFG3

We haven’t forgotten what the President of these United States said about the death of Rob Reiner and the assault of what Nancy Pelosi’s husband. Give me an effing break.

LeftistRadicalWarrenAntifaBuddy 💙🌊3

I mean, since they won't release his medical records, it's not like that is not a possibility - his health isn't great, is it?

Zeb Haradon3

Who gives half a shit what Eva Frown thinks

Dennis Morrison 🌊☮️📚🔬🎸3

Trump CELEBRATED deaths of ROB REINER & his wife! Also, ROBERT MUELLER. He dismissed RENEE GOOD & ALEX PRETTI as TERRORISTS, deserving death! 1. Go here to check your voter registration: usa.gov/confirm-vote... 2. Make your plan to vote. 3. TAKE OUT THE TRASH on November 3rd!!!

Island Girl (IG)🇨🇦3

She only speaks up when it affects her.

dinerlee.bsky.social3

The only person who needs to tone it down is that bastard Trump.

hillsm321.bsky.social3

Does she realize how many people she just encouraged to watch Kimmel? His numbers are off the charts🤣

Jim Bellemare2

They will forever be ignorant hypocrites

Gia Monroe2

What’s weird is why she is putting effort into trying to clean up her legacy now? First the Epstein presser and now this. Or is a she trying to exude some new power in the WH? For me she’ll always be known as a catalog model with her pants unzipped who went on to be a birther.

bikingmom.bsky.social2

Or her. Cause I remember a jacket. She can sit with her complaining. What a horrible woman she is…truly. Let’s just call it what it is…

Attil222

Epstein can you make that introduction

Y. Mudpuppy2

We should give Kimmel a prize. He's clearly hitting all of the right spots.

Rex & Remi2

I guess she didn't see her husband's comments about the Paul Pelosi attack. It's just one of thousands of examples of Donnie making light of or inciting violent acts.

pattycake2

they're all so fucking out of touch.

David2

Really. Trump is the most hateful person I have ever seen. cbwrong.blogspot.com/2026/04/how-...

Chitown MikeLFC2

Yeah, she can fuck all the way off.

🗽🦅Leslie in CA📚⚾️2

trump is the poster boy for violent rhetoric.

Vote Blue2

Everyday I find by soul hurting and sinking lower. I have NEVER cussed at public figures, Chris Brown and Diddy exempt, but fuck all of this shit. She can just sit down, shut her mouth, and go away. Oh wait.... she needs to get millions more from some grift. My god!!!

Patriot Virtus ⚖️🖤2

#Epstein and Paulo already introduced them. Now she is just waiting to go shopping.

Jimmy Kimmel found the sweet spot. Get them mofos Jimmy!

The remark about the president's wife was part of a routine on Thursday's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" where the host pretended to deliver a comedy routine at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner. https://to.pbs.org/4eSCX7c

Morbid? "If you were horrified... watching our elected leaders run and scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed." ~ Fred Guttenberg reacting to Saturday's WHCD shooting.

It was a decent roast! youtu.be/GRjKhsJc95o?...

balovesbooks.bsky.social12

Trump is so thin skinned. Get over yourself!!

FemPowerhouse9

The whole Trump crime family belongs in prison.

alliecollings.bsky.social9

😆 The woman posed nude and everyone has seen her hoo haa but THIS is embarrassing 🙈🙄

johnvanderwindt.bsky.social7

I really don't care, do you?

balden.bsky.social6

The “First Lady” is a morbid joke herself. Given a platform that could advance women’s rights and take down a pedophile filled cabal, yet instead acts like a privileged brat .

I don't care do you? We all need one of those jackets it turns out to wear it against the trumps

Simulated Chollas3

People like who…”shouldn't have the opportunity to enter our homes each evening to spread hate?” Remind me—who was calling for the extermination of over 90 million people just the other day?

gertrude1907.bsky.social3

Well, her husband is old and obviously in very poor health.

hawkhawkins1.bsky.social3

I didn’t realize the Trumps were Jimmy Kimmel fans. Don’t watch if you aren’t. You are public figures. You like being public figures. Get over yourselves…

And this worked so well last time.
