DEFEATED BY KIMMEL AND AN ESCALATOR, TRUMP SHOULD RESIGN - 9.25.25
Countdown with Keith Olbermann
Jimmy Kimmel's Monologue as a Turning Point
Olbermann dissects Jimmy Kimmel's blistering monologue, its audience impact, and what ABC's reinstatement signals about corporate pushback to Trump.
A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: After perhaps the most hapless 96 hours of his presidency, the worst 96 hours of the worst presidency of ALL TIME, the most FAIL in the shortest span… the mentally-deteriorating, untethered-from-reality Trump… must RESIGN. And take his idiot sycophants with him.
The last 96 hours:
His U.N. speech, sounding like an escapee from a psych ward.
His Tylenol news conference, sounding like an escapee from a psych ward who’s been living on the street for a month.
His suggestion NATO countries shoot down Russian jets.
His sudden embrace of Zelensky, either another stall or a stupid dare to Putin.
MAGA’s RAGE AT his sudden embrace of Zelensky.
The cover of a London right wing daily: his picture and in 72-point type, the word “DERANGED.”
The ICE shooting in Dallas; his sadistic Homeland chief pretending the victims were agents when they were detainees; his idiot simpering Vice President pretending the victims were agents when they were detainees; his corrupt venal FBI director pretending the victims were agents when they were detainees.
His ICE chief not denying he took $50,000 in a paper bag.
His staff THEN denying he took $50,000 in a paper bag.
His cancellation of a meeting with Democrats making sure if there’s a government shutdown it’s all his fault.
His crackpot pal Milei crashing the Venezuelan economy and needing us to bail him out.
His paranoia over the stopped teleprompter at the U-N that was his White House staff’s fault.
His paranoia over the stopped escalator at the U-N that was his own vanity videographer’s fault.
His desire to arrest the U.N. escalator technician or the U-N escalator button pusher.
His desire to arrest the escalator AND James Comey.
The election of Raul Grijalva’s daughter to Congress.
The fact that Adelita Grijalva will be the last Representative needed to force a vote on releasing the Trump Epstein Files.
His self-humiliation at the Kirk Memorial.
ABC reinstating Jimmy Kimmel.
Meaning Disney told him to eff off.
Meaning the National Football League told him to eff off.
Meaning they all told his propagandists at Sinclair to eff off.
Kimmel then shoving him in a locker using only a monologue.
Kimmel getting a record 6 million viewers and 22 more online in the first TWENTY hours.
Kimmel and his show getting new life and maybe a new contract.
His self-owning confession that HE and his goons used threats to get Kimmel cancelled.
The fact that Kimmel, and ABC, and Bob Iger, and Disney, and America told Trump to SHOVE HIS THREATS.
And that’s just since Sunday night.
You lost to an escalator. Resign. Take Vance with you. Take Noem with you. Take Ho-man with you. Take Milei with you.
LEAVE the Epstein Files.
B-Block (32:53) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Jason Whitlock says eff everybody, this is Christ-land and he won't be brainwashed any more (no brain, no pain). Derrick Van Orden says Kirk was Jesus and you don't F with the Jesus so defund The Mayo Clinic (he should go there and get CT scanned) and Kristi Noem says a tweet saying she'd have a bad day was terrifying for her. This is a piece of crap who in her spare time murders puppies.
C-Block (42:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: The New York Post BS firehose points at a couple of liberals at a time, then it rotates away, but eventually it makes a full circle and comes back to you. For me this has been going on since the mid-1990's and it's just started again. If you'll permit, here's a brief history.
