6:59Now PlayingJimmy Kimmel was back on TV after a six-day suspension with a defense of free speech and criticism of "bullying" from the US president. Donald Trump said ABC's decision to reinstate Kimmel "puts the network in jeopardy."
US President Donald Trump on Monday expressed his surprise on his social media platform Truth Social that ABC have lifted the suspension of late night show host Jimmy Kimmel. "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" was taken off air six days ago when he was indefinitely suspended over comments he made about Charlie Kirk's death.
Trump's threat
"I can't believe ABC Fake News gave Jimmy Kimmel his job back," Trump wrote Tuesday. "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. Why would they want someone back who does so poorly, who’s not funny, and who puts the Network in jeopardy," he wrote. Trump went on to accuse broadcaster ABC of "playing 99% positive Democrat GARBAGE," and said Kimmel was "yet another arm of the DNC," short for Democratic National Committee. "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."
