‘You’ve done this before,’ comedian told president, who ranted about Kimmel online and demanded his firing

Early on Thursday morning, Donald Trump made another plea for ABC to fire the late-night comedian Jimmy Kimmel, writing on his Truth Social platform that he has “NO TALENT” and “VERY POOR TELEVISION RATINGS”.

On his show later that night, Kimmel was defiant, poking at the president for his previous attempt this fall to get him fired and suggesting that Trump had clearly been watching his show.
