Comedian Jimmy Kimmel has sparked outrage for a joke aimed at First Lady Melania Trump during his parody of the White House Correspondents' Dinner, which coincided with an attempted shooting at the event by Cole Tomas Allen. Kimmel remarked on Melania's appearance, stating, 'Mrs. Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow.' This comment drew significant backlash, particularly after the shooting attempt, which has been labeled as an assassination attempt on President Donald Trump. In response, President Trump criticized Kimmel on Truth Social, calling his comments 'despicable' and urging for Kimmel's firing from ABC. Melania Trump echoed these sentiments, stating that Kimmel's rhetoric is corrosive and exacerbates political divides in the country. Kimmel has yet to respond to the controversy, while many online have rallied for his removal from the network, expressing concern over the impact of such rhetoric on public discourse.
