Trump delivers brutal rant on Jimmy Kimmel after host claimed President was bracing for 'hurricane Epstein'

It didn't take long for Trump to refocus his sights on a certain late night TV show host, as Jimmy Kimmel has once again become the target of a 'brutal' rant from the president after telling the commander in chief to brace for 'Hurricane Epstein'.

Late night host Jimmy Kimmel was seemingly public enemy number one for the Republican Party after far-right political commentator Charlie Kirk's death in September, as the TV presenter's comments left him on the receiving end of an indefinite suspension from Disney-owned network ABC.

Kimmel was let back onto the air after just five days with ABC criticized by fellow comedians and even former president Barack Obama, yet he did still have to deal with a nationwide boycott from one company that demanded an apology and 'sizeable donation' to Kirk's family.

He gave neither in the aftermath – which didn't appear to bother Erika Kirk regardless – and continued to offer criticism of the Trump administration across his regularly scheduled programming.

In a recent episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the comedian remarked that he was "carefully following the path of Hurricane Epstein right now," adding speculation as to whether there might be any tampering of the files considering the president's sudden willingness to cooperate with their release.

"Even if Trump keeps his promise and signs the bill, we don't know whether the Department of Justice will actually release all of the files or if they'll be tied up in investigations, specifically investigations Trump orders to keep them tied up in investigations," Kimmel added.

"And that is where things will get interesting [...] Will we have the original documents, or is Trump going to pull a Taylor Swift and give us 'The Epstein Files: Donnie's Version' of the document?"

Much like his response to a reporter who questioned him on the potentially 'incriminating' evidence that emerged from recent emails sent by Epstein discussing the president, Trump clearly didn't take kindly to these jokes from the late show host.

As reported by the New York Post, Trump shared a brutal rant on his Truth Social account, declaring:

"Why does ABC Fake News keep Jimmy Kimmel, a man with NO TALENT and VERY POOR TELEVISION RATING, on the air? Why do the TV Syndicates put up with it? Also, totally biased coverage. Get the bum off the air!!!"

This is far from his first tirade against a late night host, let alone Kimmel individually, but he remains consistent in his desire to remove any dissenting opinion from TV screens across the nation, piling pressure on networks and syndicates like Sinclair Inc. – who placed the aforementioned boycott against Kimmel – to pull the plug on whoever he doesn't like.
