I voted for Trump each time, and if I had to go back and vote again, I would still vote for him each time and wouldn't think twice about it. I definitely disagree with him here. As long as the government isn't subsidizing these networks then they can do what they want. They can make or lose as much money as they want, employ who they want. The market will decide, and the market decided on Kimmel long ago. Happy?None of Trump’s leg humpers will touch that statement. Why? Because it is a blatant push for state run media that allows zero dissent. This is what you get from someone who admires dictators. And his supporters know it. They are just willing to turn a blind eye to it. Kind of amazing for folks who thrive on freedom from government intervention and overreach.
I can't believe we're this far into this thread and people don't know what the joke was. The setup was that the admin wanted to use CK's death to attack the left and didn't really care about him, which cued up this hilarious clip as proof that Trump DGAF.

I still don't get how the comments on political points "sets up" the gold fish comment.
not saying he is wrong, just saying I still don't see the joke with that part of it, or even a good segway. maybe there is some running JK joke that I am not aware that makes it make sense, but the general public isn't going to be aware of it.
if the goldfish comment is supposed to be the joke, thats fine as a standalone, but it does nothing to explain the previous comments.
he got fired for the comments, not the joke that came after. it starts about 2 minutes in
and I really don't see how JK isn't saying the shooter was MAGA. again, not that I think it was enough to fire anyone over, just saying.
He does. Why else would we stop Iran from getting nukes? I mean, if you SUPPORT DTA (Death to America, which Iran has chanted for at least 3 decades), that's your biz...
Just don't parade it.
lol, after all that complaining you did about people not watching it, you didn't even watch it. 3 minutes in is the gold fish comment, after the construction bit, which still wouldn't explain the "set up" of political points.
its relevant because for it to be the joke, you need the setup AND the actual punchline. he talks about the video afterwards.Why is that part relevant? He got in trouble for the comment about the right's approach to Tyler Robinson which segues into the video. I don't know why I have to watch the whole monologue or why you're bringing other parts into it. The setup he got in trouble for was a lead into the video.

you can't just dismiss the punchline part of the joke because its inconvenient.
even if it was just the construction bit it wouldn't explain why the set up had maga trying to figure out who to blame.
Trump threatening to revoke tv licenses if they dont agree with the way he acts or think negatively of him. He’s not even hiding his authoritarian fascism anymore and his bootlickers will continue licking his boots despite how obvious he’s making it now.
Dude, you are out of control.
"We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it. In between the finger-pointing, there was grieving on Friday. The White House flew the flags at half-staff, which got some criticism, but on a human level, you can see how hard the president is taking this."
Then shows video of president not taking this hard at all. People laugh. Kimmel continues with jokes that you somehow think are relevant.
I don't need to talk to you about this anymore, but hopefully you aren't confused anymore.
the funny part of the joke is that Kimmel does exactly what he's complaining about - he's trying to characterize the shooter as not one of his group and he's trying to score political points by including this in the set up.
