Trump tweets echo violent‑rhetoric phrases twice in 25 hours
President Donald Trump posted two tweets within 25 hours that used language widely read as allusions to violence, repeating wording critics associate with threats. Media analyses and fact checks linked the phrasing to Trump’s past attacks on immigrants, journalists, and Democrats. The repetition across separate posts drew attention because the same phrases reappeared rather than appearing once by accident. That matters because violent allusions from a president can normalize threats, raise safety concerns for targeted groups, and heighten political tensions ahead of elections.
KIMMEL: “You know how sometimes you wake up and the First Lady demands you be fired? We’ve all been there, right? — I agree hateful, violent rhetoric is something we should reject… a great place to start to dial that back would be to talk to your husband.”
ipreferpi3.bsky.social49I love Kimmel. He has an earnestness about him that just rebukes bullshit politics
Matt Leeds40I STAND WITH JIMMY KIMMEL!!! #IStandWithJimmyKimmel bsky.app/profile/pale...
J'Net29She is the first lady whose “I don't care coat” shocked the world and the wife of the man whose hateful rhetoric divided this nation. The hypocrisy is mind boggling.
Impeach and Convict the President of Puerto Rico now!28Amazing that Jimmy does Way better than any wannabe possible Democrat presidential candidate speaking truth to power.
nls5.bsky.social9so good! it just alone him to say the joke again. And explain it. And clearly no call to violence. actually pretty light humor. compare to trump saying he will wipe out an entire civilization. And many other examples. Perfect response Jimmy
🫘Desireé Owen9Oddly, I tuned into our ABC affiliate channel and they went dark for the monologue. Go figure.
reneedodson.bsky.social7I knew he’d bring it tonight!
Susan Behrens5Kimmel’s monologue was good tonight! 🤣
🇺🇦Schadenfreude's Cat🇺🇦4Like she cares if her husband lives or dies. She just doesn't like that Kimmel had been taking shots at her.
sobroquet4Don’t forget these two twisted weirdos posing in a photo-op with a baby orphaned by his parent’s slaying in a race-baited mass murder fomented by tRump. tinyurl.com/9kusym6d en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_El... elpasomatters.org/2020/10/22/t...
m4a1960.bsky.social3The multi criminal & Republicons started it all the way back under this criminal administration for 6yrs on steroids now we have their videos,policy records they think people are stupid then they try to turn it around on reverse psychology look at the attacks physically & policies on USA CITIZENS!
Mo273It's crazy that comedians are far better at making sense of things than the mainstream media. Caroline Leavitt said today that the WHCD was about freedom of speech, then demanded that Kimmel be fired for expressing his freedom of speech, make it make sense, smh.
Getting The Lowdown3"Donald says Jimmy has 'no ratings,' yet he and Melania seem to be the only people in America watching every single episode with a notepad and a lawyer on speed-dial."
leahnevertiumper.bsky.social3She doesn't talk to the pedophile she takes his payments and got extra payments for slabbering that crap
Linda 🍁🍂3Kimmel breaks down the situation calm and at ease. I was nervous for him and he breezed right through it.
Gary3THIS! Jimmy Kimmel has such witty well measured responses. He didn't go all mean on Melania. He just used actual facts to serve up a very clever response. Trump? He'd be hurling insults and raw disparagements. That's the difference. Jimmy Kimmel would be 1,000,000 times better at POTUS than Trump!
Millie, or Mills if we’re friends3We all know Stephen miller wrote that
😠Mr_nice_guy_NOT😂2These criminals must pay for their atrocities. They are mass murderers and PEDOPHILIES. Their disgusting depraved rhetoric has infected millions of people that were once sane.
RegimeHater2I don't think she'll follow Kimmel's advice, if she does we may never see her again.
rugnerd.bsky.social2But she never talks to him…
napa12.bsky.social2facts are Kimmel's jokes about Melania were made 3 days "prior" to the correspondence dinner , the joke is about trump 79 being 24 yrs older than Melania 56 .
@sarahmatthews1.bsky.social on Donald and Melania Trump demanding Jimmy Kimmel be fired over a joke: "Forgive me if I roll my eyes, because you don't get to spend years cheering on violent, hateful rhetoric and then demand censorship when there's a joke you don't like."
JT Compton 🌊 fighting tyranny18No figure public figure in the last century spread more hatred, division, anger & demonization than Trump. Not even close.
Me6Trump did an interview over the weekend with 60 minutes — it went badly — he basically confirmed he’s a pedophile & rapist, so, Jimmy Kimmel.
thedarklab.bsky.social5some of trumps friends thought the attack was 'fucking awesome' bsky.app/profile/phil...
Me5We are a nation at war — because of the Trump shit show quagmire in Iran. So, Jimmy Kimmel. Gas prices are soaring, fuel shortages along with food and medicine are on the way because of Trump/Republican shit show — so, Jimmy Kimmel.
rngtrik.bsky.social3They’ve confused America for Russia.
Wooderson3The mofo called a woman reporter a piggy. They both can fuck the fuck off
brewsfan1.bsky.social3Free speech for me but not for thee....does everyone have to check the Constitution at the door before entering the Whitehouse??🤓🤓🤓🤓
Jake2Sarah, you're killing it .
John Gentempo2If I was Jimmy Kimmel, I would spend the whole show tonight playing clips of trump saying unhinged things and then invite Melania on to discuss.
Kimmel’s remarks about the shooting follow calls for his firing by President Donald Trump for a joke last week where he said Melania Trump had “a glow like an expectant widow.”
GaryHA5Funny how trump “hates” Kimmel but always knows what he said, I guess he can’t stop watching either! 😂
Alexandra Vitenberg 🇲🇽3Trump called for Kimmel's firing for a joke about age gaps. Kimmel responded by pointing at Trump's actual violent rhetoric. One of these men has a documented history of inciting real violence. It's not the late night host.
catbnymble.bsky.social2I laughed out loud. Hilarious monologue. Funniest thing I’ve heard this year. And so true. As a Disney shareholder, I’ll be furious if they pull a stunt like that again.
Dave (he/they)2Stir the pot 🫕 Kimmel has said explicitly what he thinks of the president. No respect intended—ever. The contempt is clear. And that is why Kimmel has NOT and will NOT been fired. Americans disgusted by Trump are watching him because his voice can carry theirs.
