So here we are, smack dab in a cosmic whirlwind where Mercury might be doing its classic retrograde dance—perfect timing for confusion and chaos—to witness Jimmy Kimmel tearing into Donald Trump with the ferocity of a Leo in a cage match. Kimmel didn’t hold back on his late-night show, branding the former president a “sick and irresponsible man” following Trump’s bizarre rant about the recently deceased Rob Reiner and his wife Michele, whose tragic deaths have understandably left many stunned. In a weekend already heavy with violence and heartbreak, including shootings at Brown University and a Hanukkah event in Australia, Kimmel challenges us all to demand more than the usual political nonsense—we’re talking real compassion and leadership, something the cosmos itself is begging for. And honestly, with Trump doubling down on his deranged diatribe—yes, including an inventor’s take on “Trump Derangement Syndrome”—the question isn’t just about politics, it’s about whether or not we’re awake enough to see the lunacy for what it is before the stars shift again. Buckle up as Kimmel delivers a monologue that’s equal parts scathing and heartbreakingly real. LEARN MORE
Jimmy Kimmel called President Donald Trump a “sick and irresponsible man” in the wake of the latter’s rant about Rob Reiner, who died over the weekend.
Kimmel started his monologue on Monday night’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! by noting the shootings over the weekend at Brown University and at a Hanukkah celebration at Australia’s Bondi Beach, in addition to the deaths Sunday of Rob and wife Michele Reiner. Their son, Nick Reiner, has been arrested and booked on suspicion of murder and is being held without bail. The Los Angeles Police Department has said that the 32-year-old is “responsible” for the homicide of his parents.
“You know, I have to say this is the kind of weekend that makes you wonder if things will ever feel good again,” Kimmel said on his ABC late night show, adding: “What we need in a time like this, besides common sense when it comes to guns and mental healthcare, is compassion and leadership. We did not get that from our president because he has none of it to give. Instead we got a fool rambling about nonsense, we got a brief moment of respect for our friends in Australia, we got a brief moment of condolence followed by a ‘thing happened’ for the students at Brown and for Rob and Michele Reiner.”
Kimmel was referring to Trump’s Truth Social post in which he wrote that a “very sad thing happened” to Reiner and Michele. But then, he added that Reiner’s death was “reportedly due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME, sometimes referred to as TDS.”
Trump continued: “He was known to have driven people CRAZY by his raging obsession of President Donald J. Trump with his obvious paranoia reaching new heights as the Trump Administration surpassed all goals and expectations of greatness, and with the Golden Age of America upon us, perhaps like never before. May Rob and MIchele rest in peace!”
Said Kimmel: “Just when you think he can’t go any lower, he somehow finds a way to do that. His description of what happened, of course, is not at all what happened, and this is exactly what I’ve spoken about before, this rush to pin the tail on the donkey in pursuit of the Trump-friendly narrative, not to mention blaming his death on the fact that he is an outspoken liberal, insulting someone who’s just been murdered, who leaves children behind, without having any idea of what actually happened. It’s so hateful and vile. When I first saw it, I thought it was fake. My wife showed it to me this morning. I was like, well, even for him that seemed like too much, but nothing is ever too much for him.”
Kimmel then went on to show a clip from a press conference later Monday at the Oval Office, in which the president doubled down on his comments against Reiner, a prominent supporter of the Democratic party.
“He was a deranged person, as far as Trump is concerned,” Trump said, noting he “wasn’t a fan” of Reiner’s. “He said — he knew it was false, in fact it’s the exact opposite — that I was a friend of Russia, controlled by Russia: the Russia hoax, he was one of the people behind it. I think he hurt himself career-wise; he became like a deranged person, Trump Derangement Syndrome. So I was not a fan of Rob Reiner‘s in any way, shape or form at all. I thought he was very bad for our country.”
Said Kimmel to his audience: “That corroded brain is in charge of our lives. If you voted for that, it’s OK to reconsider. It’s perfectly fine,” he added, to applause. “And I have to say, I know from my personal interactions with Rob Reiner that he would want us to keep pointing out the loathsome atrocities that continue to ooze out of this sick and irresponsible man’s mouth, and so we’re gonna do that over and over again until the rest of us wake up.”
