Jimmy Kimmel on Trump: 'He thinks the Gaza Strip is a gentlemen's club'
The host then switched to politics, as five states held primaries on Tuesday – Florida, Illinois, Kansas, Ohio and Arizona. Donald Trump and Joe Biden will be the nominees, “there’s no question about that,” said Kimmel. “The only question, really, is how much of this we can take.”
Especially as Trump continues to escalate his threatening rhetoric. Speaking on “swamp creature” Sebastian Gorka’s show, Trump claimed that any Jewish person voting for Democrats “hates their religion, they hate everything about Israel, and they should be ashamed of themselves”.
“That’s also the opening line of the speech he’ll be giving at his granddaughter’s bat mitzvah,” Kimmel quipped. “Do you think he even knows what ashamed is? I mean, he’s never experienced it.
“How much do you think he even knows about Israel?” Kimmel continued. “He probably thinks the capital of Israel is baba ghanoush. Trump thinks the Gaza Strip is a gentlemen’s club.”
