Add Jimmy Kimmel to the list of people and political leaders who are appalled by “Trump Gaza.” The ABC host tore into the unsettling video during the latest episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”
On Tuesday, the sitting president of the United States shared an AI-generated video highlighting what “Trump Gaza” could look like. It’s still unknown who created this video. This Truth Social post came after Trump proposed in February that the U.S. take control over the Gaza Strip and permanently remove the entire Palestinian population to turn the land into an American-owned “Riviera.”
Last week, Trump backed off this highly controversial plan, but that was oh-so-many days ago. Now we’re in this week, and this week has a bizarre video filled with clips of AI Elon Musk stuffing his face with hummus and shirtless AI Trump lounging by a Gaza pool.
“Even Kim Jong Un was like that’s a little much,” Kimmel said on Wednesday night, likening it to what would happen if “a cruise ship crashed into Saddam Hussein’s house.”
“That video, it’s a perfect example of who Donald Trump is. He doesn’t think about the death or the suffering. He doesn’t care about the people who have been killed or held hostage or don’t have homes. What does he care about? Building hotels,” Kimmel continued. “There is no problem that can’t easily be solved with a real estate development named after him.”
The ABC host then dove into some of the video’s highlights, asking “who would even want to go to a place like this?” Specifically, he mocked the giant golden statue of Trump shown in the video.
“Traffic’s a nightmare. You have to drive around these big dumb statues. Everybody’s walking around with balloons like they’re the clown from ‘It.’ The nightclubs are full of lecherous old Americans groping Americans with their webbed frog hands,” Kimmel said. The “lecherous old” American in question was none other than an AI rendering of Trump, which included an unsettling depiction of his hands, as is the way with AI.
Kimmel did have one nice thing to say about the baffling video.
“I did like the music. It was kind of catchy,” Kimmel admitted. Watch the full monologue above.
