Late-night comedian Jimmy Kimmel has blamed “repulsive” liberal activists for enabling President Donald Trump’s return to power.
During an appearance on the Sarah Silverman Podcast on Thursday, Kimmel said without a shred of irony that “loud voices” had scared people away from the Democratic Party.
“I’s not the party. It’s not the majority,” Kimmel insisted. “ It’s the loud voices that scare people from saying what they believe and make you think twice about a joke or whatever.”
“You know, a lot of their points are valid, but a lot of them are also just repulsive, in that they repel people,” he continued.
“They go like, ‘Oh, you’re no fun. I don’t want to be around you.’ And I think that if you had to boil it down to one thing, that’s kind of what it is.”

It is not the first time that Kimmel, who is himself a committed left-wing activist, has accused humorless liberals of costing the Democrats the 2024 election.
“I think a lot of the outrage is completely manufactured, and it’s like, a lot of these people who are angry aren’t really angry,” Kimmel said back in April.
”I think these liberals who’ve done such a good job of viciously attacking comedians are a big part of the reason why Trump is the president right now.”
So Close, Yet So Far: Jimmy Kimmel Actually Nails 1 Reason Trump’s Winning
Following Trump’s victory last November, Kimmel choked up on air as he moaned about the “hard-working immigrants” who might be deported under the administration.
Last month, Kimmel had a social media meltdown after his fellow late-night comedian Stephen Colbert was canned by CBS.
“Love you, Stephen. Fuck you and all your Sheldons CBS,” he wrote at the time.
President Trump, meanwhile, warned that Kimmel may well be next on the chopping block.
“I absolutely love that Colbert got fired,” Trump wrote after hearing the news of Colbert’s firing. “His talent was even less than his ratings.”
“I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert!” he continued.
