Trump and Kimmel have shared some heated exchanges in the past. At the end of his hosting gig at the 96th Annual Academy Awards in March 2024, Kimmel took a moment to read a review of his performance that Trump had posted on his Truth Social account.

The 57-year-old host shared a photo of himself at an anti-Trump protest with his family just days after the president threatened his show could be “next.”

Trump weighed in on CBS's announced cancelation of Stephen Colbert's late-night talk show and is seemingly hopeful Jimmy Kimmel will be next to get axed.
