      XPost: alt.politics.trump, rec.arts.tv.comedy.colbert-report, sac.politics       XPost: alt.politics.republicans, or.politics       From: leroysoetoro@americans-first.com              https://decider.com/2025/07/18/president-trump-gloats-late-show-stephen-c       olbert-cancellation-jimmy-kimmel-next/              President Donald Trump addressed CBS’ shocking decision to cancel The       Late Show With Stephen Colbert, seemingly suggesting that other late       night hosts should get a similar treatment – namely his longtime critic,       Jimmy Kimmel.              “I absolutely love that Colbert’ got fired. His talent was even less       than his ratings,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social, per Variety.       “I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert!”              Kimmel and Trump have been feuding for years. Not only did Trump blast       Kimmel’s time hosting the Oscars in 2024, but the late night host has       spent almost every single evening on Jimmy Kimmel Live criticizing       Trump’s politics in recent months. Kimmel was even moved to tears after       Trump won the presidency in 2024, calling this a “terrible night” for       democracy and claiming he’s on Trump’s “list of enemies.”              Trump also took a shot at Jimmy Fallon while praising Fox News late       night host Greg Gutfield.              “Greg Gutfeld is better than all of them combined, including the Moron       on NBC who ruined the once great Tonight Show,” he wrote.              CBS announced it made the “financial decision” to cancel The Late Show       in a press release shared Thursday (July 17). The show is set to end in       May 2026.              “We consider Stephen Colbert irreplaceable and will retire The Late Show       franchise at that time. We are proud that Stephen called CBS home. He       and the broadcast will be remembered in the pantheon of greats that       graced late night television,” the statement reads, per The Hollywood       Reporter. “This is purely a financial decision against a challenging       backdrop in late night. It is not related in any way to the show’s       performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount.”              The decision comes just days after Colbert criticized CBS’ parent       company for reaching a $16 million settlement with President Trump after       Trump accused 60 Minutes of editing an interview with Kamala Harris to       mislead voters during the presidential election. Paramount is currently       in the middle of a merger with Skydance Media that will require approval       from Trump’s administration.              “I don’t know if anything — anything — will repair my trust in this       company,” Colbert said on The Late Show earlier this week. “But, just       taking a stab at it, I’d say $16 million would help.”              Kimmel wasted no time in speaking out in support of Colbert. “Love you       Stephen. Fuck you and all your Sheldons CBS,” he wrote on Instagram.                     --       November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump. We look       forward to America being great again.              We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that       stupid people won't be offended.              Every day is an IQ test. Some pass, some, not so much.              Thank you for cleaning up the disasters of the 2008-2017, 2020-2024 Obama       / Biden / Harris fiascos, President Trump.              Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the       The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood       queer liberal democrat donors.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
