    He should have gone on the attack and went after Trump even harder in the return monologue.

    It looks as if he is just scared of losing his job and capitulated.

    Disappointing, but I never did like Kimmel so I’m not surprised.

      It wouldnt be just his job, but the entire production crew as well, which is quite a lot of people.

        How dare they not sacrifice all their livelyhoods and mental health in the name of virtue signaling?

      He should have called them out for trying to make it about Charlie Kirk when clearly it was retaliation for exposing Trumps disregard for Kirk as well as turning attention back to the Epstein files.

      I like Kimmel and watch him regularly. I honestly don’t know how real those tears were. Everyone was speculating he’d have to apologize. I feel like he narrowly skirted admitting any wrong doing by appeasing the mob with an appeal to emotion.
