Jimmy Kimmel urges Republicans not to vote for Donald Trump

With a week until Election Day, Jimmy Kimmel made a heartfelt plea Tuesday night for moderate Republicans to reconsider their vote for Donald Trump, using the former president's words to argue against his return to the White House.

The host of ABC's “Jimmy Kimmel Live” dedicated his opening monologue to revisiting a series of “bizarre and ridiculous words that have come out of his mouth” over the past nine years. He urged viewers to view the 2024 presidential race as a matter of “common sense, security and democracy.”

“Here’s the problem. It’s kind of funny – his silly, random rants – and it would be great – if he hosted a podcast or sold knives at the Farmers Market. But he is supposed to lead us. People listen to him. And the country is getting crazier and crazier. Because he accepts that he’s crazy,” Kimmel said.

“Remember all those people who were in Dallas waiting for JFK Jr. and his father to come back to life — and then he would serve as Trump's running mate in 2024,” Kimmel said, citing a conspiracy theory weird one that swirled. Asset. “Donald Trump is the exact meeting point between QAnon and QVC.”

Kimmel made a point of asking viewers to ask his Republican friends and family members to watch his monologue as a personal favor for them. He introduced himself with a nod to “The Man Show,” the silly unscripted comedy series he hosted with Adam Carolla for Comedy Central from 1999 to 2004.

“For those of you who never watch, my name is Jimmy Kimmel. Maybe you remember me from ‘The Man Show,’” he said. “We had – we had a pretty good relationship at the time. Beer, trampolines… good times, right? We had a great time.

Kimmel pointed the finger at himself when speaking about the bitterness of the country's current political and cultural divisions.

“But now times are less fun. We are a week before the elections and we are very divided. And not just because of Donald Trump – because of people like – if I’m honest – me,” he said. “I mock and belittle a lot…and it's not always productive. Am I biased against Donald Trump? Yes. Do I think I have good reason to be prejudiced against him? Yes. And I'm probably wrong – but I think when you hear some of these reasons, you might – you might agree with me – even just a little bit.

Kimmel listed the many former Trump allies and cabinet members who have disavowed him in the strongest terms. He referenced the Trump campaign rally Sunday night at Madison Square Garden, where one of the speakers, Tony Hinchcliffe, hurled racial slurs and ignited a firestorm among Puerto Rican voters.

“But if you need more – I suggest you watch his rally at Madison Square Garden – or listen to all three hours of his interview with Joe Rogan. Because most elections are about politics. This one is not. It's a matter of common sense. And security. And democracy,” Kimmel said.

“You know, I saw a shirt the other day that said, 'I support Trump because he pisses off the people who piss me off.' And it's funny. And I understand. Sometimes it seems like no one has a sense of humor anymore. But is this really all we want for America? Is it to get angry? I don't want that.

The monologue ended with Kimmel bringing in his longtime sidekick Guillermo Rodriguez to support his arguments that Trump's radical immigration agenda is un-American.

“It’s Guillermo. He's an immigrant – he became an American citizen. And this is a toast – to our fellow Americans,” Kimmel said as the two large mugs of beer were raised.
