The late night television host Jimmy Kimmel is calling for President Donald Trump to be arrested for the address he gave at the White House on Thursday night. During his speech, Trump suggested that voter fraud is happening in key states like Georgia and Pennsylvania.
“If you count the legal votes, I easily win,” Trump said. “But we think there’ll be a lot of litigation because we can’t have an election stolen like this.”
This enraged Kimmel, who said that Trump should be arrested for this “despicable and incoherent attack on democracy.”

“Well, that’s a different type of concession speech,” Kimmel said after the speech. “This was — I won’t bore you or give him the pleasure of showing what he said tonight. But the only thing he didn’t do is pull off his wig and reveal that he’s been Vlad Putin all along. It was a litany of lies, threats, just a despicable and incoherent attack on democracy in the United States. At the end of that speech, he should have been arrested.”
Kimmel, who is one of the most anti-Trump figures in the liberal world of Hollywood, could not hide his excitement as he celebrated “watching a presidency bleed out in real time.”
“They’re still counting the votes, whether Donald Trump likes it or not. But it would appear that our Burger King has been flame-broiled for good,” Kimmel said. “We are watching a presidency bleed out in real time.”
“By the way, a lot of ballots that come in after Election Day are from our troops serving overseas, and the irony of a draft-dodger trying to negate those votes is more delicious than the 12 little dunk-cups of honey mustard he dipped his McNuggets in today,” the late night host continued.
This came after Kimmel shamed Trump supporters as he lamented how close the election is.
“I’m very happy and relieved that it looks like we’re finally sending this monster back to Mar-a-Lago. But I’m also shocked that it was this close,” Kimmel said on Wednesday. “I mean, we reunited the cast of every movie and TV show ever made to win this election.”
“It is unimaginable to me that close to half of American voters saw what this man has done to this country over the last four years … and almost half of us are apparently okay with that,” Kimmel added.
