What To Know
- Jimmy Kimmel joked that Donald Trump was ‘going to hell’ after the president discussed the afterlife on 60 Minutes.
- The late-night host referenced South Park’s depiction of Trump living with Satan.
- He also mocked White House spokesperson Davis Ingle for calling his brain ‘peanut-sized.’
Jimmy Kimmel has little doubt about where Donald Trump is going in the afterlife, suggesting the president is headed straight to hell to join the devil himself.
The late-night host made the joke while showing clips from Trump’s 60 Minutes interview with Ross Douthat on Sunday (November 8). At one point in the interview, Douthat asked the president what he thinks will happen to him when he dies.
“I’m a religious person, so in theory, I go to heaven,” Trump said.
“Do you think you’re going to heaven?” Douthat replied.
“I hope so,” Trump responded. “I don’t want to go to hell.”
Kimmel shared his own verdict, telling the president, “Well, you are going to hell.”
As the audience cheered, Kimmel continued, “A little weird to say, because Jesus told us, ‘Judge not, lest ye be judged.’ But in this case, who are we kidding? Ye are going to live with the devil himself.”
“You are going to hell. You are going to open your eyes and pray you’re watching South Park,” the comedian added, referencing Trump and Satan shacking up on Season 27 of South Park. “You will be in hell.”
Elsewhere in Monday’s monologue, Kimmel took another shot at White House spokesperson Davis Ingle after the latter issued a statement accusing the host of having a “peanut-sized brain.”
“And then the White House got back to the important business of attacking me,” Kimmel said. “I got another statement from White House spokesboy Davis Dingle, who wrote, ‘Jimmy Kimmel’s case of Trump Derangement Syndrome is so advanced that it has completely rotted his peanut-sized brain. He’s far more entertaining when you’re laughing at him than with him. But unfortunately, his real talent is his failing ratings.’”
“Sick burn, bro,” Kimmel mocked. “You know what? You should enter a rap battle spitting dope rhymes like that.”
Kimmel said it’s a sign of how bad things have become now Trump has “interns” insulting him. “It’s like that sad day when your cat gets too fat to chase mice,” he continued.
“This guy says, ‘I have a peanut-sized brain.’ Let me explain something. I know you’re young. That’s impossible. You know what happens when you try to run a full human body with a peanut-sized brain?” Kimmel added before showing a clip of Trump mispronouncing “human genome” during a speech at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
“You start saying things like that guy,” Kimmel quipped. “He has a brain like a p’nut.”
