'The Real Loser Here Is Melania,' Jimmy Kimmel Pokes Fun At Trump's Financial Woes: 'If You Think She Hates Him Now, Wait Until He's Poor'

Jimmy Kimmel took another jab at Donald Trump‘s financial troubles, suggesting that it might affect his marriage with Melania Trump.

What Happened: Kimmel, the host of ABC’s late-night show on Wednesday, ridiculed Trump’s inability to pay the $464 million bond he owes after his civil fraud conviction in New York.

“Of course, the real loser here is Melania,” Kimmel said, implying that she might end up with half of Trump’s assets.

"She may end up with half of the noting he owns now."

Kimmel humorously speculated that Melania might not be too pleased if Trump’s financial situation deteriorates further. He also referenced Trump’s statement last month, where he claimed that Melania’s absence from public events was due to her being a “private person,” and that she would soon join him on the road.

"I hope she got an advance on that prenup, because if you think she hates him now, wait until he's poor," Kimmel said.

Why It Matters: Kimmel has been a vocal critic of Trump, often using his show to mock the former president. Their ongoing feud has been a source of entertainment for many, with Kimmel even clapping back at Trump’s critique of his Oscars hosting skills.

Trump, on the other hand, has not shied away from publicly criticizing Kimmel, calling him “even dumber than I thought” during an interview with Fox News’s “MediaBuzz.”

As the 2024 presidential election approaches, Trump is preparing to challenge President Joe Biden once again. His ongoing feud with Kimmel, a prominent figure in the entertainment industry, could potentially impact his public image. According to Real Clear Politics, at the national level, Trump held 47.2% support among voters, While Biden trailed with 45.5% support.

Meanwhile, on Tuesday, Former First Lady Melania Trump hinted at a potential comeback to the campaign trail alongside her husband, Donald Trump.
