On Tuesday night, Jimmy Kimmel addressed Donald Trump Jr ’s wedding, the New York Knicks making it to the NBA finals and raised an eyebrow to claims that Donald Trump ’s physical went “perfectly”. On Saturday, Donald Trump Jr married his partner, Bettina Anderson, in the Bahamas in a small ceremony attended by 40 guests “none of whom were his father”, Kimmel noted. On Truth Social, Trump wrote that he “very much wanted” to be there but felt it was “important for me to remain in Washington, DC at
“He had circumstances pertaining to government – and also flying to a private island makes him miss his friend Jeffrey,” Kimmel joked in reference to Jeffrey Epstein . “This is a guy who golfs two, three times a week, he’s going to UFC fights with Vanilla Ice,” said Kimmel. “He was too busy for his son’s wedding. “But he did say Don and Bettina are going to have a great marriage, and this is a man who knows a great marriage; he’s had three of them himself.” It has been reported that a larger celebration at the White House will follow the Bahamas ceremony in the fall, with the president expected to attend. “Well, you’d hope so, they live there,” said Kimmel. “Can you imagine if they didn’t show up to that one, too? ‘We wanted to make it, but we were unable to go downstairs.’” The host then turned to discuss the Iran conflict, with Kimmel saying that Trump was “stuck in [the war] like a pig in a vat of chocolate pudding.” On Saturday, the president said that a deal with Iran was nearly finalized, but US bombs continue to strike the country. “It’s as if that Fifa peace prize means nothing to this man,” joked Kimmel. On Memorial Day, Trump posted a Truth Social message wishing a happy holiday to all, “including the Dumbocrats who disrespect our military…God bless those that have made the ultimate sacrifice. I love you all.” “No one puts the ‘me’ in Memorial Day like Donald J Trump,” Kimmel said to applause. The president has also rebuked reports of his poor fitness levels. He received his third physical examination in just over a year yesterday, saying: “Everything checked out PERFECTLY.” “It’s his third examination in little over a year,” said Kimmel.
