Trump Slams Abc Over Jimmy Kimmel'S Comeback, Hints At Legal Showdown: 'This One’S Gonna Be Profitable!'

Trump Throws Shade at ABC for Kimmel’s Return

Former President Donald Trump is not holding back, y’all. He’s coming for ABC with the ferocity of a Hollywood red carpet feud, blasting the network for welcoming back comedian Jimmy Kimmel after a spicy suspension. In a fiery post on his Truth Social platform, Trump dubbed ABC 'Fake News' and threw major shade at their decision to revive 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' when their ratings are, in his words, straight-up tanking.

'Why bring back a dude who’s bombing harder than a bad audition in Tinseltown? No talent, no laughs, and just spewing 99% Democratic nonsense that puts the network at risk,' Trump ranted online. He’s got a point to make, and he’s making it loud - this ain’t just about late-night laughs; it’s personal, and it’s got that LA-style drama we live for.

Legal Threats and Political Fireworks

Trump didn’t stop at the insults - he’s hinting at turning this beef into a courtroom blockbuster. Accusing Kimmel’s show of being 'another arm of the Democratic Party,' he suggested its return might even count as an 'illegal campaign contribution.' And with a sly nod to past wins, he teased, 'Last time I took them on, I walked away with $16 million. This one seems even more profitable.'

'ABC’s playing a dangerous game bringing Kimmel back - they’re just begging for another legal smackdown,' Trump reportedly told close associates.

The stakes are higher than a rooftop party in Downtown LA. Trump’s ready to escalate this into a full-on legal battle, and with his track record, you know he’s not messing around when it comes to cashing in on a fight.

The Suspension Saga and Kimmel’s Controversial Comeback

Let’s rewind a bit - 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' was off the air for nearly a week after a monologue that stirred up more chaos than a paparazzi chase on Sunset Boulevard. The controversy kicked off on September 17th when Kimmel implied that the alleged killer of conservative activist Charlie Kirk was a Republican and Trump supporter. Cue the outrage, with FCC Chairman Brendan Carr - a Trump ally - slamming the comments as 'the sickest behavior possible' and even threatening to review ABC affiliate licenses.

Protests hit Disney’s offices in both New York and California (Disney owns ABC, for those not in the know), while over 400 celebs signed a public letter backing Kimmel. Disney called the suspension 'temporary,' saying they wanted to cool things down during a tense time for the nation. But not everyone’s on board with the comeback - Sinclair Broadcasting Group swapped the show for news on their local channels, and Nexstar’s still playing coy about whether they’ll air it.

The Bigger Picture: Satire, Politics, and Power

This whole mess has reignited the convo about where the line is for political satire on network TV - especially when the political pressure is hotter than a Santa Ana wind. Kimmel addressed the drama in his return monologue but has kept quiet publicly otherwise. Meanwhile, Trump’s itching to turn this into a legal showdown, and you can bet all eyes are on how this plays out.

It’s not just about one late-night host or one network - it’s about who gets to control the narrative in a polarized world. Here in LA, where entertainment and politics collide like traffic on the 405, this story’s got us all hooked. Will Trump take ABC to court over Kimmel’s return, or is this just more Hollywood bluffing? Stick with us as this SoCal scandal unfolds.
