Jimmy Kimmel has a message for Donald Trump after the president’s bombshell 60 Minutes interview.
During Monday’s episode, the late-night host showed clips of Trump’s sit-down with CBS News correspondent Ross Douthat for a wide-ranging conversation about immigration, gas prices and mortality.
At one point in the interview, Douthat asked the president his thoughts on the afterlife, to which Trump responded: “I’m a religious person, so in theory, I go to heaven.” After Douthat asked another follow-up question, the president added: “I don’t want to go to hell.”
Kimmel then delivered his own verdict, telling Trump: “Well, you are going to hell.”
He continued as the audience cheered: “A little weird to say, because Jesus told us, ‘Judge not, lest ye be judged.’ But in this case, who are we kidding? Ye are going to live with the devil himself.”
“You are going to hell,” Kimmel added, “You are going to open your eyes and pray you’re watching South Park. You will be in hell.”
The comedian was referencing season 27 of Comedy Central’s South Park, in which Trump and Satan have an on-and-off romantic relationship.
Earlier in his monologue, Kimmel said that White House spokesperson Davis Ingle attacked him in a recent statement, which said: “Jimmy Kimmel’s case of Trump Derangement Syndrome is so advanced that it has completely rotted his peanut-sized brain. He’s far more entertaining when you’re laughing at him than with him. But unfortunately, his real talent is his failing ratings.'”
Kimmel mocked, “Sick burn. bro. You know what? You should enter a rap battle spitting dope rhymes like that.”
After the Democrats took control of the House and the Senate in last week’s midterm elections, the late night host also speculated about how Trump will proceed for the rest of his time in the White House.
“I don’t think we’re prepared for the amount of insanity that this drama queen president is about to pump on us,” he continued. “Donald Trump right now is a raccoon in a duffel bag. He’s been cut off at the cankles and there are two possible paths he can take: the first one, he can check out. No more meetings, lots of trips to Mar-a-Lago, lots of golf with Natalie [Harp] running behind the cart, every once in a while he’ll host the Super Bowl team — that’s the best case scenario.”
Kimmel said the second option is that Trump “goes nuts like Jack Nicholson in The Shining” to ensure “no one but him will ever live in the White House again.”
“He might knock down the rest of it, as far as we know,” he said, joking about Trump’s ballroom renovations.
