Jimmy Kimmel Comes Out And Says It: The Real Reason He Doesn't Like Trump

Jimmy Kimmel admitted on Wednesday that his problems with President Donald Trump go way beyond politics.

Kimmel, who was suspended last week over comments about the suspect in the Charlie Kirk assassination, spoke directly to the Trump supporters who want him off the air permanently because of his constant jokes about the president.

“I talk about Trump more than anything because he’s a bully. I don’t like bullies,” Kimmel said. “I played the clarinet in high school, OK? So I just don’t like him.”4

-snip-

“Donald Trump is an old-fashioned ’80s-movie-style bully, taking your lunch money ― and if you give it to him once, he’ll take it again,” he said. “Two things he loves, lunch and money.”

EVERY school I went to had the garden-variety bullies....I made it my mission to very publicly humilitate them.

On CNN tonight, I told my husband how they are all just bullies. To me, every trump supporter I see strikes me as a bully. And I don't like bullies, either.

And YEP!!!!!

That's why they Idolize him. He gives agency to their Bullying Belligerence. I grew up with it in my own home. It left a bad taste in my mouth to this day and I can't stand seeing it deified.
