President Donald Trump can sound just like the fascist Jimmy Kimmel describes him as on social media.
Take into account this Trumpian broadside towards “The Late Present’s” soon-to-be-ex-host Stephen Colbert earlier this week.
“Stephen Colbert is a pathetic trainwreck, with no expertise or anything mandatory for present enterprise success. Now, after being terminated by CBS, however unnoticed to dry, he has really gotten worse, alongside along with his nonexistent scores…Stephen is working on hatred and fumes ~ A useless man strolling! CBS ought to, ‘put him to sleep,’ NOW, it’s the humanitarian factor to do!”
The president later added this by way of Fact Social:
“If Community NEWSCASTS, and their Late Night time Exhibits, are nearly 100% Damaging to President Donald J. Trump, MAGA, and the Republican Social gathering, shouldn’t their very invaluable Broadcast Licenses be terminated? I say, YES!”
It’s terrible. Indefensible. Unacceptable. Un-American.
And, fortunately, not tethered to actuality.
It’s Trump being Trump, bloviating in methods which can be inappropriate for any western world chief. And we’ve grown numb to it for 2 causes:
- He’s been doing this for practically a decade…
- He doesn’t act on these speech-controlling impulses
In reality, the alternative is extra usually the case. The Trump administration simply punished 5 European officers accused of trampling on free speech rights. Trump frenemy Elon Musk has spent billions on X, the social media platform that provides extra free speech than a few of its friends.
Extra importantly, the Trump administration hasn’t curtailed speech on social media platforms like his predecessor. There’s no Twitter Information sequel that we all know of the place Trump officers leaned on X to suppress views.
These actions matter. They enormously outweigh his social media rants.
That doesn’t imply the latter don’t exist, or that Trump’s critics aren’t feasting on them to buttress their flimsy arguments.
Which brings us to Jimmy Kimmel.
The far-Left propagandist went on British TV yesterday to decry the Trumpian rise of “fascism” in America. It’s extra misinformation from the fellow who misled viewers in regards to the particular person accused of assassinating Charlie Kirk and lied about Antifa’s very existence.
And it egregiously ignores the serial threats to free speech throughout each components of Europe and within the UK. Working example?

Kimmel didn’t point out that horrific story or tons of extra of Brits dealing with jail time for sharing the “unsuitable” social media posts.
That’s to his disgrace.
But Kimmel is utilizing Trump’s wildly inappropriate posts to help his fraudulent case. Who wouldn’t?
That’s President Trump’s fault.
The late-night narrative, supported by Kimmel and co. together with corrupt media retailers, is that President Trump obtained Colbert fired and Kimmel suspended.
Each arguments are false. But each are supported by the hosts in query and intensely biased information retailers.
Nonetheless.
President Trump provides gas to their nonexistent fireplace along with his social media threats. Right here’s betting nobody is happier to learn them than Kimmel and Colbert.
They know Trump doesn’t imply it, however sufficient folks might imagine he does. That’s what issues, and it’s why President Trump is doing himself extra hurt than any late-night monologue may.
