Jimmy Kimmel on his show Wednesday read out social media posts from Donald Trump supporters who lambasted the late-night host for attacking the president's response to the violence in Charlottesville, Va.
The ABC late-night comedian read tweets and Facebook posts that castigated his previous night's monologue, calling them "thoughtful responses."
Kimmel on Tuesday gave a political monologue in which he spoke directly to those who voted for Trump, saying they needed to realize they made a "mistake."
"But you've been trying to ignore it, because you don't want to admit to these smug, annoying liberals that they were right," Kimmel said on air Tuesday. "That's the last thing you want to do. But the truth is, deep down inside, you know you made a mistake."
People irate with Kimmel's remarks took to Twitter and Facebook to express their discontent with the comedian, the Hill reported.
"Jimmy give me a break Jimmy. Nobody cares what you think you sound like a whining baby does baby Jimmy want his bottle?" one Twitter user wrote.
Another Twitter user told Kimmel to move to another country and that if he does not like Trump, he should "stop crying on TV snowflake."
Kimmel then said that he enjoyed Facebook posts more because people had to attach their real name to what they wrote.
"Jimmy Kimmel is the worst talk show host and most stupid person I have ever seen," a Facebook user wrote. "I watched President Trump today and Stupid Kimmel took what President Trump said all wrong and is turning it around to hurt Trump. Stupid Kimmel as far as I am concerned is a racist and is promoting racism. His sorry ass show needs to be canceled."
"Jimmy Kimmel reminds me of demented little kid at a social gathering. Where in the hell is this kid's parents? They should be arrested for giving birth to him," another Facebook post read.
