Donald Trump<\/a> has revived his feud with Jimmy Kimmel after posting another Truth Social post, hitting out at the late-night talk-show host.<\/p>\n

Taking to his own platform<\/a>, Trump wrote on Truth Social: \u201cWhy does ABC Fake News keep Jimmy Kimmel, a man with NO TALENT and VERY POOR TELEVISION RATINGS, on the air?\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued, \u201cWhy do the TV Syndicates put up with it? Also, totally biased coverage. Get the bum off the air!!!\u201d<\/p>\n

This comes following the heightened investigation into the Jeffrey Epstein files, the late convicted sex offender with whom Donald Trump is alleged to have a previous connection. Trump has finally signed a bill to release the files, but has been shying away from questions on the matter during recent outings.<\/p>\n

In his monologue on November 18th, Kimmel referenced this, sharing, \u201cTrump is not a happy little meal right now. Every time he gets asked about Jeffrey Epstein, he loses his mind.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s call to remove Kimmel from the air harkens back to his previous suspension; ABC previously suspended the host for nearly a week in September due to his comments following the assassination of Charlie Kirk.<\/p>\n

At that time, Trump was disgruntled that he was allowed back on air. He wrote online, \u201cI can\u2019t believe ABC Fake News gave Jimmy Kimmel his job back. The White House was told by ABC that his Show was cancelled! Something happened between then and now because his audience is GONE, and his \u2018talent\u2019 was never there.\u201d<\/p>\n

The feud was also sustained by Kimmel, who hit back at Trump, claiming he \u201cdid his best to cancel me\u201d. However, the President wasn\u2019t able to do so, and \u201cinstead, he forced millions of people to watch the show<\/a>\u201d.<\/p>\n

Recently, Saturday Night Live<\/a> also parodied Trump\u2019s relationship to the Epstein files. In one satire, the actor playing Trump stated: \u201cJeffrey Epstein, I barely knew the guy, as evidenced by the thousands of pictures of us together, dancing and grinding our teeth at various parties, always leering at something just off camera. Probably a book we\u2019re excited to read.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
