Jimmy Kimmel said President Donald Trump “celebrated the first two letters of Memorial Day” as he ranted in public and online over the weekend.
The president fired off a bizarre message on his social media site attacking the previous administration as “scum” and delivered a rambling speech to graduating cadets at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.
Trump told a long story about former pro golfer Gary Player, who he said could hit the ball far despite being short.
“Nothing lights up a crowd of young people like a story about 89-year-old golf legend Gary Player,” Kimmel cracked. “Except maybe for a warning about trophy wives.”
Kimmel rolled footage of the president talking about a “great real estate man” he knows who married a trophy wife and “it didn’t work out too well.”
“That doesn’t work out too well, I must tell you, a lot of trophy wives, doesn’t work out,” Trump said. “But it made him happy for a little while at least.”
Kimmel and his audience laughed at the president’s tangent.
“I think we just found out what it would be like to take a whole graduating class to visit grandpa in the home,” Kimmel said. “I mean, how long before we find him wandering in his bathrobe along the side of the road?”
