Melania Trump has criticised late-night host Jimmy Kimmel over a joke in which he called her an "expectant widow" just days before a shooting incident at the White House Correspondents' Dinner she attended with the president.

The first lady called Kimmel's remarks "hateful and violent", urging his network, ABC, to take action against his "atrocious behavior".

I don't think he should be fired directly - I think the people should stop watching him, and then fired for his unpopularity. Firing him is itching in one place and scratching in another.
@MarciaMom1 And that is how the TV ratings system works. When people stop watching, you get cancelled😷

@MarciaMom1 But they’re not going to stop watching, because most of America agrees with him

@Waveney Say exactly what you mean - what is it that you think most Americans think? That it's a good idea to kill the president?

@MarciaMom1 that’s not what Jimmy Kimmel said. The left don’t advocate for violence, even against those they hate. Unlike MAGA

@Waveney You say it out loud to the Nation about your First Lady being widow. Glad that this Kimmel is in USA, WERE he in some other country, the news in the tomorrow's newspaper would be "Famous Comedian Jimmy Kimmel ends his life in road rage, was doing 120+ after possible meth overdose, investigations underway"

It is freedom all over in USA and he is reaping it.

@DanielsASJ it’s freedom in the USA if you are White and loyal to Trump. Otherwise….

@MarciaMom1 Really?
Was it "educated leftists" who murdered Melissa & Mark Hortman?
Was it "educated leftists" who plotted to kidnap Gov Gretchen Whitmer?
Was it "educated leftists" who attacked Paul Pelosi?
Was it "educated leftists" who firebombed Gov Josh Shapiro?
Was it "educated leftists" who shot up Dem offices in Tempe Arizona?

We have a deep and enduring problem with violence in our society. It's not restricted to one party or the other. BTW, Trump's own FBI director said that the greatest domestic terrorist threat today is white supremacists.

@ElwoodBlues Shooting A President and bullet touching his ear by fractions of an inches is a different thing altogether. No match.
@DanielsASJ If an educated Leftist had done it, the bullet would have touched both ears..😷
