Jimmy Kimmel reacts to Trump ‘blaming everyone other than himself’ for midterm results

The midterm exams are over and the results were quite decisive.

Jimmy Kimmel has already reacted to the Democrats’ big victory, but in the clip above he turns his attention to the fallout, including Donald Trump’s reaction, both online and offline.

“He’s still our president, and in the face of defeat, he does what he does best: blame everyone other than himself,” Kimmel says in the video above. “He took shots at Texas Governor Greg Abbott, called him a RINO (Republican in Name Only), attacked Fox News for its coverage, and then absolved himself of responsibility. He wrote, ‘I wasn’t on the ballot. And if I was, we would have won in a landslide.’

“Oh, shut up, shut up, please. Give us a break for a day and shut that ridiculous mouth. You are such a spoiled brat.”
