"It seems like every day we're learning something new while we're in quarantine,"
Jimmy Kimmel said on Wednesday's Kimmel Live. For instance, "did you know Hitler had an alligator? Well, he did, and now that alligator is dead.""The president and his space poodle were in
Florida today for the big NASA/SpaceX launch — this would have been the first time ever that a private company sent astronauts into orbit, which would have been a big deal," Kimmel said. "Unfortunately, the mission had to be scrubbed at the last minute due to weather. ... People online are blaming the president for jinxing this thing because he showed up to see it, just like they say he jinxed
Alabama by showing up their home game, or how he's jinxed everything he's ever touched, but this is not his fault.""It's been an all-caps kind of week for our dear mis-leader —
Twitter yesterday, for the first time ever, flagged his tweets as potentially misleading," Kimmel said. "I guess this is good, but I don't know. Do we really need Twitter to tell us our fake president tweets fake things? Is that their job? The president, of course, was displeased. He took to Twitter to lash out at Twitter." He read Trump's tweetrum and said he wasn't sure what it meant."I guess it was only a matter of time before
Donald Trump would be in a Twitter feud with Twitter," Kimmel said. "But this new kick he's on, trying to stop voting-by-mail, is actually very scary, because it's pretty clear he's setting the stage to claim he was cheated if he loses the
election, which could potentially result in real violence in this country. And to help him push our democracy toward the edge of a cliff,
Kellyanne Conway spoke to reporters today to say: pandemic, schmandemic, real
American voters wait in line." At least for cupcakes.
