US EditionDonald Trump Says He Shouldn't Be President If He's Not More Talented Than Jimmy Kimmel
Trump highlighted he is the first sitting president to host the Kennedy Center Honors and criticized Jimmy Kimmel following the latter's brief suspension in September.
- On Saturday, President Donald Trump took a swipe at Jimmy Kimmel, late-night host, while handing out Kennedy Center medals in the Oval Office and touted hosting the Kennedy Center Awards Sunday.
- Jimmy Kimmel's brief September suspension after implying Charlie Kirk's killer was a Trump supporter prompted pushback from Nexstar, Sinclair and FCC Chair Brendan Carr.
- The honorees this year are Sylvester Stallone, George Strait, KISS, Gloria Gaynor and Michael Crawford, and Trump mispronounced Stallone's last name twice while presenting his Kennedy Center medal on Saturday; Stallone was named one of Trump's three `special ambassadors` to Hollywood earlier this year.
- Artists will be recognized at the Kennedy Center Honors on Sunday with performances and tribute speeches hosted by President Donald Trump, who called the honorees icons uniting millions while presenting medals.
- With no prior president hosting, President Donald Trump said he would go to the State Department with Secretary of State Rubio, framing the move as unprecedented.
