💥 BREAKING NEWS: Jimmy Kimmel says Trump rage-posted for his firing after a brutal MAGA election-night collapse ⚡NN

It was supposed to be just another late-night monologue. Instead, Jimmy Kimmel walked onto his stage like a man stepping into the blast radius of a presidential meltdown. Before he even got to the punchlines, he dropped the first bomb: sometime around 12:49 a.m., Donald Trump had rage-posted that Kimmel was a “no-talent bum” who should be yanked off the air immediately. Not exactly a normal review from a sitting president — but Kimmel wasn’t shocked. If anything, he sounded almost… honored. When the President of the United States is losing so badly that he’s yelling at a talk-show host after midnight, you know something has snapped.

And snap it did. According to Kimmel, Trump had two excuses locked and loaded for the Republican bloodbath: “Trump wasn’t on the ballot,” and “the shutdown.” Kimmel paused there, letting the hypocrisy hang in the air. Because if Republicans had won, and Trump wasn’t on the ballot, would he still take credit? Kimmel didn’t even need to answer. Everyone knows he would’ve wrapped himself in the victory like a gold-plated cape.

But there was no cape to grab last night. This wasn’t a “bad night.” Kimmel called it a MAGA disaster — a full-body faceplant. The off-year elections turned into a clean sweep for Democrats, and Trump apparently spent the evening watching the map turn against him like it owed him money. Virginia flipped blue with Abigail Spanberger winning the governorship. New Jersey held with Mikie Sherrill. Even the breakout star moment belonged to a 10-year-old — Spanberger’s daughter Catherine — twisting the knife of wholesome family optics into a GOP already bleeding credibility.

Then came the gut punch Trump will never forget: his own hometown, New York City — the place that built his brand, fed his ego, and plastered his name on skyscrapers — elected Zohran Mamdani as mayor. Not just a Democrat. A Democratic socialist. Kimmel made the contrast brutal: Andrew Cuomo, the old-school Democrat Mamdani beat, suddenly looked like a Republican standing next to him. And Trump? Trump lost the city that made him to a man Kimmel joked probably thinks rent is optional. Comedy writers everywhere could retire. Reality had done their job for them.

Right on cue, the “fraud tears” began. Before polls even closed, Trump started singing the same old song: when they win, it’s democracy; when they lose, it’s a criminal conspiracy involving bamboo fibers, Venezuelan satellites, or whatever fever dream is trending in MAGA group chats at 2 a.m. Trump went on TV calling New Jersey “statistically impossible.” Kimmel leaned into the obvious: isn’t it wild how the numbers are only “impossible” when they go against him?

But the elections weren’t the only reason Trump was spiraling. Kimmel pointed to the real accelerant: the longest federal shutdown in American history — a 43-day tantrum with no payoff. National parks closed. Workers furloughed. Offices dark. Passports frozen. Entire systems paused because Trump wanted a fight, and Republicans followed him off the cliff. Kimmel portrayed the chaos as so extreme that even the guy who checks the milk at the White House got furloughed — leaving Trump, in Kimmel’s words, just days away from needing an Uber to the golf course.

And after all that misery? Nothing. Speaker Mike Johnson finally caved and signed the exact same funding bill he could’ve signed months ago. No victory. No grand outcome. Just scorched earth and a political hangover. Kimmel compared it to Trump torching his own house, then screaming at the firefighters for not arriving faster.

Now Trump is furious, blaming everyone except himself — the candidates, the media, and somehow even Kimmel, as if a late-night joke tanked Virginia’s governor race. The President’s delusion might be hilarious if it weren’t steering the country. Kimmel ended with a smug, lethal calm: sure, Trump can call him a bum, a hack, a scapegoat. But at least Kimmel didn’t lose a popularity contest to a socialist in his own backyard.

And with that, Kimmel shrugged off the chaos like a man used to standing in the line of fire — and reminded the audience that unlike the administration raging on Truth Social at 3 a.m., his show actually knows how to keep the lights on.
