Hollywood and American politics are once again on fire as Jimmy Kimmel – the host of the famous talk show – officially “picked sides” in the latest war of words with Donald Trump.

It all started when former President Trump announced on the social network Truth Social that he had “inside information” showing that Jimmy Kimmel was about to lose his job, implying that the show Jimmy Kimmel Live! was at risk of being canceled due to falling ratings. This “prediction” quickly spread, becoming a hot topic in the American media.
But Jimmy Kimmel – who is no stranger to attacks from Trump – did not stay silent. In the latest broadcast, he sarcastically said:
“Oh, it’s cute that someone who was fired by his own voters is worried about my job. Thanks, Donald!”

He continued to tease with sharp jokes, implying that Trump has not yet recovered from the 2020 election defeat and the legal troubles that are surrounding him. The audience in the studio applauded loudly, and social media exploded with clips of this “fatal” response.
Observers say that this war of words is not only an entertaining argument but also reflects the tense political atmosphere in the US as the 2024 election approaches. On one side is the controversial former President, on the other side is the host who is always ready to satirize power.
Is Jimmy Kimmel’s career really threatened, or is Trump’s rumor just a “wind blow” to distract public opinion? And more importantly, how far will this war of words escalate?
