Jimmy Kimmel is unabashedly criticizing Donald Trump regarding the extravagant multi-million-dollar military parade that has drawn significant attention.
During an episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live on Monday evening, June 17, the late-night host unleashed a humorous tirade against the President of the United States, highlighting how even President Trump seemed unable to stay awake during the “tedious” display of military might.
Kimmel presented a clip that suggested President Trump dozed off while sitting next to First Lady Melania Trump, an amusing moment that drew laughter from the audience.

“Look at sleepy Don absorbing all the excitement,” he quipped.
“To be fair, that’s as close as he gets to catching some Zs next to his wife, so he took full advantage of the moment.”
Jimmy then shared another cringeworthy interaction between the First Couple, where Melania appeared to reject President Trump’s attempt to hold her hand.
“This nearly makes me feel sorry for him. Almost,” Kimmel remarked.
“He makes a subtle move to intertwine pinkies, and uh, nope. We can call this the Slovenian snub.”
The parade, intended to honor the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army, is projected to have a staggering cost ranging from $40 to $50 million and coincidentally took place on President Trump’s 79th birthday.
“You know, for all his claims that this wasn’t a birthday celebration for him, it certainly had the vibe of a birthday party,” Jimmy commented.
He further mocked President Trump for organizing what he referred to as a “ridiculous sweet 16 masquerading as a tribute to the U.S. Army,” especially considering that Trump allegedly “bone spurred his way” out of military service during the Vietnam War draft.
Kimmel also criticized the “monotonous” event, emphasizing that it was funded by taxpayer dollars, raising questions about the appropriateness of such expenditures.
Meanwhile, Trump has recently announced his foray into the wireless phone industry, adding yet another layer to his ever-expanding portfolio of business ventures.
