Trump Visits with King Charles, Wants Us to Pay for Ballroom & Did He Joke About His Own Death!?
Jimmy Kimmel Live
0:00 I'm Jimmy.
0:00 I'm the host of the show.
0:03 Thank you for watching.
0:04 We're coming to you from Los Angeles.
0:06 Thanks for joining us here on another weird day.
0:09 There is so much nonsense,
0:10 and I mean that in a like a very literal sense of the word nonsense happening.
0:16 At the same time, there are also so many
0:18 awful and scary and flatout unbelievable things going on.
0:21 The world has been turned upside down, mostly for no good reason.
0:25 And so today we got a visitor uh one of the very few people
0:29 who might actually be able to tip things even slightly in a positive direction.
0:34 The king of England is in the United States.
0:37 King Charles and Queen Camila are here to visit President Beef on Wellington.
0:45 And also um they have quite an itinerary.
0:49 They're going to New York.
0:50 Uh they're making a stop at the Wisconsin Dells.
0:53 They're going to a screening of The Devil Wears Prada 2 at the Burbank AMC
0:58 and I guess they're wrapping it up with a fish concert in Vegas at the Sphere.
1:03 Trump has a particular affinity for the royal family and so in Washington
1:07 they pulled out all the stops to welcome the king and queen.
1:10 The Department of Transportation lined the streets
1:12 with what they thought was the Union Jack,
1:14 the British flag turned out to be the Australian flag.
1:19 So they had to take them all down and swap them out.
1:22 Somehow they they managed to screw everything up.
1:25 It was a literal false flag operation going on there.
1:30 Yesterday the Royals joined the Trumps for afternoon tea.
1:33 And boy would I love to be
1:34 a fly on the cucumber sandwiches for that conversation.
1:38 No way Trump was drinking tea, right?
1:41 I bet they they boiled some diet coke and put it in a cup for him.
1:45 King Charles delivered a speech today before a joint session of Congress.
1:49 His goal in this trip is to try to calm transatlantic tensions.
1:54 Trump heard this.
1:55 He said, "The Atlantic is trans now, too." But Charles um gave a a good speech.
2:04 He uh paid tribute to his mother, the late Queen Elizabeth.
2:08 The monarchy is a strange thing.
2:09 Imagine getting promoted because your mom died.
2:12 That's right.
2:13 You know, there's a story today.
2:15 suggested that Trump and the King may be distant cousins.
2:17 They might be related, which Trump saw and posted, "Wow, that's nice.
2:21 I've always wanted to live in Buckingham Palace.
2:24 I'll talk to the king and queen about this in a few minutes." Okay,
2:27 I'm sure they'll be thrilled to have such a formidable roommate in their home.
2:34 You know, this idea that Trump might be the king's
2:36 distant cousin is exactly the plot of the movie King.
2:43 And look it up.
2:44 It's spot on.
2:47 Trump was very excited about hosting the king and a lot of it
2:50 is because Trump's mom was a great fan of the royal family.
2:54 My wonderful mother, Mary McCloud.
2:57 She came to America at 19, met my incredible father.
3:03 We loved him so much.
3:05 We all loved him.
3:05 We loved her.
3:06 We loved him.
3:08 Fred.
3:09 and they were married for 63 years.
3:15 And uh excuse me if you don't mind.
3:18 That's a record we won't be able to match, darling.
3:20 I'm sorry.
3:21 Just not going to work out that way.
3:24 Wait a minute.
3:26 Did he just make a joke about his death?
3:32 My god.
3:35 You should BE FIRED FOR THAT.
3:38 ONLY DONALD TRUMP WOULD DEMAND I BE FIRED FOR MAKING A JOKE ABOUT HIS OLD age
3:43 and then A DAY LATER GO OUT AND MAKE A JOKE ABOUT his own old age.
3:50 You think just when you think they've hit peak
3:54 ridiculous making a big thing out of this joke?
3:56 They then top themselves and charge criminally charge former FBI director Jim
4:02 Comey who Trump doesn't like because he did his job and investigated him.
4:06 And they charged Comey once with obstruction
4:08 and with making a false statement which went nowhere.
4:11 It got thrown out of court.
4:13 So now they're charging him again.
4:14 This time with threatening the president's life for this.
4:17 This is not a joke.
4:18 They're charging with threatening the president's life
4:21 for this photo of seashells that spell out 8647.
4:26 86 is an old restaurant term.
4:28 It means get rid of.
4:29 And Trump is the 47th president.
4:31 Trump's pets in the DOJ are claiming this is
4:34 some kind of threat or call to violence,
4:36 which even he should be embarrassed by this.
4:39 Put that back up.
4:40 That is not a threat.
4:41 That is a piece of art your aunt with a beach house would buy on Etsy.
4:48 But he's being charged with a crime.
4:52 And acting attorney general Todd Blanch said the crime
4:54 carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.
4:58 And I'm guessing it's not the five-star
5:00 Beerram yoga prison he transferred Gelain Maxwell to.
5:03 He He also said this wasn't politically motivated.
5:07 Yeah, they just You know what?
5:08 They just don't like people named Jim is what I've learned.
5:11 So last night, America's mayor Rudy Giuliani rose from the grave
5:16 to weigh in on the ongoing drama involving me.
5:19 Dad, I want you, if you don't have it,
5:21 I want you to dig out uh the the one from from uh uh
5:28 maybe maybe one of the most distasteful
5:30 human beings in this country, Jimmy Kimmel.
5:34 What was that sounding?
5:35 You just Wow.
5:38 I have to say it hurts to be called distasteful by a man
5:42 who farted his own pants off in front of Borat's daughter.
5:46 But but excuse me.
5:48 You know what?
5:48 I'm being rude.
5:49 I interrupted the mayor.
5:50 Please go ahead with the broadcast.
5:52 Kimmel was making believe that he
5:55 was hosting the White House correspondence dinner, which I think he did once.
6:00 I don't know.
6:01 Probably only once and about four people, right?
6:04 Probably watched it.
6:05 I mean, bomb as usual.
6:08 This is supposed to be a comedian.
6:15 Am I Is there something funny?
6:18 Could you play it one more time, Ted?
6:25 He He went through the He went through the uh
6:28 uh uh bother of putting up like a little stage and Right.
6:33 He's also like an incompetent jackass.
6:37 I have to say, it's confusing to be called an incompetent jackass
6:40 by a man who accidentally held a press
6:43 conference outside a dildo store who doesn't
6:48 seem to have any understanding of when videos are running and when they aren't
6:54 and has a gallon of squid ink dribbling off the top of his head.
6:58 But do you think does this man have
7:00 any family members who can come get him already?
7:04 Team Trump has been using the uh attempt at attack at the White
7:08 House uh correspondents dinner to get out of paying for the ballroom.
7:12 He said would be paid for by private donors
7:15 as a gift to America, paid partly by him.
7:19 But now, and this is a classic Trump move,
7:21 he wants us to pay for it to the tune of $400 million.
7:25 But keep in mind that um even though we would have to pay for it,
7:29 once the ballroom is finished,
7:30 none of us will ever be allowed to set foot in it.
7:33 And while it may seem crazy to be talking
7:35 about a ballroom with a war going on, it is.
7:39 It is insane to do this again.
7:42 Anybody who suggests that we have an event like this in the times
7:46 in which we live in a facility like Hilton, that's crazy.
7:52 We're going to have to accommodate the times in which we live.
7:55 And Eric, you nailed it.
7:57 You did.
7:58 There are people out there that are nuts.
8:01 And that is why they have no choice
8:03 but to barricade themselves inside a solid gold drone proof ballroom.
8:08 And by the way, I love that Trump put Lindsay in charge of the ballroom push.
8:14 We're going to introduce legislation that would authorize $400 million
8:20 to be spent to secure the pre to build the presidential ballroom.
8:25 Underneath there will be a lot of military stuff.
8:28 The estimate is 332 million.
8:31 We're going to do 400 million because I think it's probably going to take more.
8:34 Private donations can be used,
8:36 but I think they should be used for buying China and stuff like that.
8:42 China and stuff like that.
8:43 You're going to spend $300 million on China and stuff like that.
8:46 The only thing Lindsey Graham loves more than war is dinner wear.
8:50 He just Send in the gravy boats.
8:54 Lindsey Graham.
8:56 Man, does this guy have a finger on the pulse of the average American.
9:00 All he wants is to cha cha pass the president's
9:03 bedroom with a limo porcelain teacup in his hand.
9:07 But his fellow Republicans are split.
9:09 A funding bill would likely require 60 votes in the Senate,
9:12 which is unlikely to happen.
9:14 Lindsey Graham can't just wave his Little Mermaid bubble wand and make it so.
9:19 And if he could, he wouldn't be constantly begging for money.
9:22 I need your help.
9:23 I hate to say this, but I've been outraised twice by Democrats.
9:27 Please go to lindseygram.com and help me if you can.
9:29 I've been with President Trump at every step.
9:32 The Democrats have money.
9:33 I don't know where they're getting all this money, but I need your help.
9:36 Lindsey Graham.com.
9:37 Please help me if you can.
9:39 Please help me if you can.
9:41 Lindsey Graham.com.
9:42 A hostage video.
9:43 It would be less embarrassing if he was selling pictures of his feet.
9:49 If you need money, start an only fans.
9:52 So, this foiled shooting at the Hilton
9:54 on Saturday night has created a lot of waves.
9:56 One of them was it took the focus off of FBI Director Cash Patel,
10:01 who was weathering a storm of stories about drinking on the job,
10:05 which is something he absolutely positively would never ever do.
10:10 We will analyze all evidence immediately
10:13 to make sure that we safeguard this country.
10:15 Mr.
10:15 President, Mr.
10:16 Vice President, thank you for your leadership.
10:17 Attorney General, Homeland Secretary Mullen,
10:19 thank you for your partnership in law enforcement.
10:21 Well, get that man a roadie cup for God's sake.
10:24 And of course, all of this self-inflicted
10:28 stupidity is it's a distraction from inflation
10:30 and the price of gas and the grifting
10:33 and the Trump Epstein files they claim don't exist.
10:38 And the fact that we are still fighting a war
10:41 that the president declared we won on the first day.
10:44 We're now on week nine of the war.
10:47 Trump is said to be dissatisfied with the latest
10:50 proposal from Iran to reopen the strait,
10:52 but a spokesperson for the White House told the New York
10:54 Times that the United States will not negotiate through the press.
10:58 That's right.
10:58 The United States negotiates exclusively through unhinged social media posts
11:03 from the president's toilet in the middle of the night.
11:07 But most people, sadly, I guess, aren't paying attention to any of this.
11:12 Most people are more interested in the movie
11:15 about Michael Jackson than the war in Iran.
11:17 You know, Michael Michael made $97 million over the weekend.
11:20 It's the biggest opening ever for a biopic,
11:23 even though it leaves out a lot of stuff.
11:27 It starts with him in the Jackson 5.
11:30 It goes all the way to him becoming a superstar,
11:32 but it ends before he becomes an old white lady who lives
11:36 in an abandoned amusement park with a monkey and a leather jacket.
11:42 It's not a complete story.
11:44 Janet Jackson doesn't even exist in the movie.
11:47 His only sister in the movie is Latoya.
11:49 And they don't go into any of the many allegations,
11:52 which is odd for a movie about someone's life.
11:55 But also, would you go to a movie about child molesting?
11:58 I don't know.
11:58 Seems like it might take some of the attention away from the moonwalking.
12:01 But controversy aside, whenever a major blockbuster drops,
12:05 we send our in-house film critic, Yaya, to review it.
12:08 And here he is once again talking about the movie Michael action.
12:16 HI, it's me Aya.
12:18 I talk ABOUT THE NEW MOVIE MICHAEL JACKSON.
12:22 Rest in peace and he's the top.
12:25 I watch him and he do Jackson 5.

12:30 He's super nice guy.
12:32 He said to me, "Yeah, yeah, I like you.
12:35 Can I take picture of you?
12:37 Can I take PICTURE OF YOU?

12:40 And I take selfie by my hand and I kiss him in his head.
12:44 He have oil too.
