Jimmy Kimmel Threatens to Call the FCC on Donald Trump

Key Points:

• President Donald Trump suggested that soaring costs are "a small price to pay" if it prevents Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon, controversially stating, "Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego."
• Right-wing media later claimed Trump's remarks were a joke, and the White House said they were "not rooted in reality," but Jimmy Kimmel criticized the comments as dangerous and indefensible.
• Kimmel highlighted the hypocrisy of conservatives condemning his jokes about Trump while ignoring the president's alarming statements about potential attacks on American cities.
• The comedian called for accountability, sarcastically threatening to report Trump to the FCC, and mocked the president's animosity toward California by referencing a clip of Governor Gavin Newsom greeting Melania Trump.
• Kimmel condemned Trump's rhetoric as insane and emphasized the seriousness of a sitting president wishing harm upon American citizens, contrasting it with the outrage conservatives expressed over his own comedic remarks.
