Kimmel compares Trump’s Nobel Peace Prize to a pacifier
Kimmel trolls Trump after taking Nobel Peace Prize from the actual winner
Jimmy Kimmel's monologue on Jimmy Kimmel Live! was laced with barbed jokes about Donald Trump accepting a Nobel Peace Prize medal from Venezuelan opposition leader María Machado.
Machado, who received the award for leading the resistance against Nicolas Maduro, presented the medal to Trump after praising his interventions in her country, something Kimmel compared to a baby being given a pacifier.
Kimmel highlighted that Trump was reportedly furious at not winning the award himself, later passing over Machado when naming Maduro’s successor.
The talk show host then offered his own Emmy and Soul Train awards to Trump, proposing an exchange for the withdrawal of ICE agents from Minneapolis.
Kimmel also criticised Trump's suggestion that the United States does not need midterm elections, outlining a hypothetical ”master plan” involving deploying ICE and cancelling elections.
