Tommy Vietor

That's, quote, beyond the pale and demanding that Kimmel be fired.

You guys think the Trump's latest attempt to fire Kimmel for a joke is going to work?

Yeah, Andrew Edgar at the Bulwark, he was like, the trophy wife who won't be crushed when her rich old husband kicks the bucket trope is older than dirt.

And I was like, yeah, that's sort of what it was.

Big whiff.

He could have been like, hmm, there's a guest in room...

You know who gets to complain about that joke?

Is anyone who was complaining about it after he made it before the dinner.

No one raised any objections afterwards.

And remember, Donald Trump was still, there were still two attempted assassinations when he made the joke.

So it's not like anyone drew a connection.

Probably because the two assassination attempts were like 600 days before he made the joke.

But like no one said anything when he made it.

And someone just, you know, someone found the clip after the thing, picked it up and were like,

all right, a thing to be angry about.

Let's do it.

Let's go.

You know, we went through this, of course, when Charlie Kirk was assassinated and they all did the like, we have to take the temperature down and the left's violent rhetoric, stuff like that.

And let's say at that point you wanted to give them because, OK, maybe they've all maybe they want to bring the rhetoric down to.

Right.
