“He turned on his phone very early this morning and jumped on the bipolar express starting at 5:50 a.m. with this,” Kimmel said, and he read the president’s message attacking Democrats for “saying over and over again that the Trump administration is corrupt.”
“Now wait,” he said. “No one has ever said that. We would never say something like that. It would be very, very rude.”
Trump accused Democrats of being “corrupt and evil” and demanded an end to the filibuster so that “the Republican Senate can no longer be the place where things are sent to die.”
“I couldn’t agree more with that,” Kimmel said. “We must immediately send Mitch McConnell home to Kentucky.”
Trump also claimed — as he has in the past, often just before elections — that “huge caravans” of migrants were heading toward the U.S. border.
“Oh man, this is getting pathetic,” Kimmel said. “He’s lost his momentum. He’s repeating himself. He’s yelling about caravans and ballrooms and bad Democrats, and no one is listening. It’s sad. It’s like when you see Joe Namath in a hearing aid commercial.”
