Donald Trump is doubling down on his call for ABC and Disney to fire Jimmy Kimmel. The feud between the U.S. president and the “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” host has escalated over the last week after Kimmel made a joke about Melania Trump becoming a widow shortly before the White House Correspondents Dinner, which was disrupted by a shooter. The suspect has since been charged with attempting to assassinate the president.

“When is ABC Fake News Network firing seriously unfunny Jimmy Kimmel, who incompetently presides over one of the Lowest Rated shows on Television?” Trump asked his Truth Social followers in a post published April 30. “People are angry. It better be soon!!! President DJT.”
