Jimmy Kimmel took aim at Sylvester Stallone during his monologue on Monday night for calling Donald Trump the “second George Washington.” The “Rocky” and “Tulsa King” actor spoke at an American First Gala at Mar-a-Lago on Thursday night, where he introduced the President-elect as such. “When George Washington defended his country, he had no idea that he was going to change the world.
Because without him, you can imagine what the world would look like,” Stallone said. “Guess what, we got the second George Washington. Congratulations!” Riffing on Stallone’s words, Kimmel said: “I guess those punches Rocky took to the head were real after all.
” He added, “George Washington was the father of our country. Donald Trump is the father of Eric. Big difference there.
” Representatives for Stallone did not immediately respond to Variety ‘s request for comment. The late-night host also poked fun at a photo of Trump, Elon Musk, RFK Jr., Donald Trump Jr.
and House Speaker Mike Johnson eating McDonald’s on his private plane after attending the UFC 309 event on Saturday. “After the fight, Trump loaded the whole grab ’em by the posse onto his plane,” Kimmel said. “There’s a lot going on in this photograph.
This is like the Last Supper, but everyone is Judas ...
Little Elf on a Shelf Mike Johnson popping his head in there, health czar RFK with a quarter-pounder with cheese, 10 McNuggets, large fries and a coke. That’s what they call a farm-to-toilet meal.” Kimmel continued, “Only Donald Trump would force his new health czar to eat McDonald’s.
That’s what he does. These are subservience tests he gives. Mike Johnson has to go to a fight, RFK has to eat McDonald’s, Matt Gaetz has to date a woman he didn’t pay.
