There are people who say Trump decided to run during the WHC dinner where Obama and Seth Myers made fun of him. He walked out of the dinner. None of this is a surprise.

That was in the spring of 2011. Why didn’t he run against Obama then?


Because he missed the deadline. It was too late, brainiac.

The filing deadline for the election in November 2012 was before May of 2011? Really, brainiac?

Carr and Trump should shut up, but they are not why Kimmel was fired.

Roseanne Barr claims that Michelle and Barack called Iger to get her fired. Who knows? But, the Obama administration clearly went after right wing commentators. So did Biden.

Does not excuse Carr or Trump, but there was a whole lot of squashing of free speech in Obama and Biden administration. You just did not notice it because it pleased you.


WTAF! The shooter isn't cooperating and he hasn't had a trial. His friends say he's apolitical. We have no idea yet if his politics played into AT ALL. If Jimmy K is fired, Trump should be too. They both lied.


We need a credible citation for your statement that his friends say he was a political. You’ve made this claim before and have not given any evidence.

NP. He didn't vote in the past two elections.

He did. He dropped out of the GOP primary after a few months because he didn't get an traction.

No and no.

This armchair CEO garbage isn't going to cover up the fact that a federal government employee publicly threatened to take major punitive action against a private company in order to censor the speech of their employee. Conservatives used to find this scenario appalling and completely against the Constitution.


But Kimmel spread a hurtful lie that he easily could have fact checked, had he stepped out of his bubble. He wasn’t even telling a joke, he was making a political speech.

Disney is playing stupid. And they overplayed.

Once Trump is gone - and that will happen - there will be overwhelming bipartisan support for breaking up the media conglomerates. Disney went all in with being a Trump lackey. And that is going to bite them in the end. I would have expected smarter of them.

I don't think the FBI came out with their "evidence" until the next day. And who was hurt so much by his "lie?" The President who has told tens of thousands of lies in the past decade?

It wasn’t a lie - the MAGA crowd had been trying desperately to make people believe that the murderer was part of some leftist group starting when Kirk’s body was still warm. That was their number one priority.

Also, this should go without saying but comedians are allowed to make political speeches just like they are allowed to tell jokes in America.

At least the America I know. /Captain Von Trapp voice

The fact that Kimmel’s suspension has angered the left much more than the assassination of Charlie Kirk is hard to watch. It’s completely disgusting and I’m not sure how the Democrats can recover from the behavior since the shooting.

It wasn't a lie. You all have been and continue trying to make the shooter out to be anything other than MAGA. That is a fact. Why do you all struggle so much with this concept?

Hurtful to whom? Also, if it was political speech as you contend, all the more reason the government should avoid censoring it!! Do you even grasp the implications of what you're saying?

Kimmel "spread a hurtful lie?" FFS, Rush Limbaugh made spreading hurtful lies his entire career for decades and was never kicked off the airwaves for it, instead he paved the way for tons of others spreading hurtful lies, like Michael Savage, Glenn Beck, Alex Jones, Mark Levin and others. So why all the sudden does Kimmel get targeted? By this logic most of the right wing guys on talk radio need to go.

It's also hard to watch people idolize a man who said a lot of offensive and hateful things about others. He didn't deserve to be killed, but that guy was not a good person.

And you should give a credible citation that he isn't. Or that there is proof that he is a "leftist."

It’s a bit early in the season to construct a giant straw man like that.
