Trump Calls for Kimmel's Ouster from ABC

U.S. President Donald Trump demanded ABC fire late-night host Jimmy Kimmel. Trump's remarks were made on Truth Social, following Melania Trump's request for Kimmel's removal after a controversial monologue before a major dinner in Washington.

President Donald Trump publicly demanded that ABC terminate Jimmy Kimmel, the late-night talk show host, stating it should happen soon. The comments were made on Thursday via the social media platform Truth Social.

Trump's remarks came days after First Lady Melania Trump expressed her desire for ABC to remove Kimmel. She criticized him for a monologue given in the lead-up to a Washington dinner that gained significant attention.

This development follows a broader, ongoing tension between the Trumps and media personalities who critique or parody the President and his family.
