Jimmy Kimmel Roasts Trump’s Laughable Plan to Save Hollywood

Jimmy Kimmel sarcastically offered President-elect Donald Trump some credit for his announcement appointing a number of MAGA celebrities as his “special ambassadors” to Hollywood.

“While everybody has been worried that he won’t do anything to help us, turns out we’re wrong,” Kimmel said.

Kimmel showed Trump’s Thursday Truth Social post, which read, “It is my honor to announce Jon Voight, Mel Gibson, and Sylvester Stallone, to be Special Ambassadors to a great but very troubled place, Hollywood, California.”

“Wow,” Kimmel replied. “Braveheart, Rambo, and the Midnight Cowboy. He summoned the three horsemen of the apocalypto to save us.”

Kimmel read out the part of Trump’s post promising the three actors would help make Hollywood “BIGGER, BETTER, AND STRONGER THAN EVER BEFORE!”

“In other words, Trump saw The Expendables 3 on his plane last night and was like, ‘I need those guys to help me,‘" said Kimmel.

Responding to the part of the post where Trump claimed the actors would serve as his “eyes and ears,” Kimmel replied, “And who better to be Trump’s eyes and ears than 86-year-old Jon Voight? Kevin Sorbo must be devastated that he was not included."

Kimmel also responded to the news that Donald Trump may be visiting California soon.

“He is supposedly coming to California to survey the damage and call people names,” Kimmel said. “It’ll be good to see him. It’s been too long.”

The late-night host, who has spoken a lot this week on the raging wildfires in Los Angeles county, talked to some volunteers from the Altadena Rotary Club, who asked viewers to donate to their recovery fund.

The Jimmy Kimmel Live! YouTube channel once again posted Kimmel’s monologue alongside a donation link to the World Central Kitchen. Kimmel’s channel has raised over $96,000 for the nonprofit organization so far.
