President Donald Trump hopped on social media to express his displeasure at ABC News ending Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension and allowing him back on television.
“I can’t believe ABC Fake News gave Jimmy Kimmel his job back. The White House was told by ABC that his Show was cancelled! Something happened between then and now because his audience is GONE, and his “talent” was never there,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

I can’t believe ABC Fake News gave Jimmy Kimmel his job back. The White House was told by ABC that his Show was cancelled! Something happened between then and now because his audience is GONE, and his “talent” was never…
He continued, “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 is yet another arm of the DNC and, to the best of my knowledge, that would be a major Illegal Campaign Contribution. I think we’re going to test ABC out on this. Let’s see how we do. Last time I went after them, they gave me $16 Million Dollars. This one sounds even more lucrative. A true bunch of losers! Let Jimmy Kimmel rot in his bad Ratings.”
Kimmel was suspended “indefinitely” following his comments about late right-wing activist, Charlie Kirk.

During his return, Kimmel used his monologue to roast Trump, who accused him of having poor ratings.
“He knows bad ratings, he has some of the worst ratings any president has ever had!” Kimmel said.
