Jimmy Kimmel Hilariously Edits Trump’s Inauguration Into Epic ‘Star Wars’ Scene!

by

Jimmy Kimmel‘s monologue on Monday humorously expressed his disappointment over Donald Trump being sworn in as president for a second time. He described Trump’s inaugural speech as darker than he had expected. During the broadcast of Jimmy Kimmel Live, Kimmel showed a clip of Emperor Palpatine addressing the Galactic Senate in Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith, with Trump inserted into the scene. Kimmel continued to criticize Trump’s early profit-making from the presidency, his circle of tech billionaires, his pardons for January 6 offenders, and other related issues.

At the start of his talk, Kimmel shared a personal story that encapsulated the dismal nature of his day. “This morning, our son climbed into our bed unusually early and wet the bed, and as we got up, our dog had defecated in the hallway and urinated on the wall.

Kimmel commented, “That was merely a taste of what’s to come for the rest of the day.” He also mentioned, “President McRib will return for a brief period, about four years.

As a devoted fan, I couldn’t help but envision Donald Trump slipping into the role of Emperor Palpatine during the climax of “Revenge of the Sith,” proclaiming the birth of the “first galactic empire.

Kimmel pointed out that Donald Trump became the first individual convicted of a felony to assume the presidency of the United States. He then mentioned some of Trump’s recent business endeavors, such as introducing a meme coin, allegedly worth around $41 billion, and selling inauguration bibles. To add to the absurdity, this was after he declined to place his hand on the Bible during his swearing-in ceremony.

As a devoted admirer, let me express my astonishment at the situation: It’s mind-boggling to consider that the President of the United States is mirroring the courageous path taken by the legendary Hawk Tuah girl, as I find myself saying.

Jimmy Kimmel Burns the Tech-Bros-in-Chief

Kimmel didn’t hold back his criticism towards the tech moguls in attendance during his opening speech. Following the playback of Trump’s speech where he declared “America’s decline is over,” Kimmel humorously questioned, “Did he say America’s ‘manhood’ is restored?” He then pointedly remarked, “America’s manhood is over there” while displaying images of Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk.

Kimmel wasn’t done with the billionaires though:

Many individuals were puzzled as to why so many wealthy individuals were extended invitations to the capital for the inauguration. The truth behind it is quite clear. Trump has been selling off the country to the wealthiest bidders. It’s fascinating to observe these powerful men, who have no need to amass any more wealth, stooping low to flatter this seemingly ridiculous figure. However, that seems to be the reason they’ve accumulated such vast fortunes.

I labeled Elon Musk as a modern-day comic-book antagonist, and it’s hard not to see the irony when Trump casually suggested that some of our nation’s wealthiest figures, among them who are present here, have lost their homes due to the California wildfires.

Kimmel stated from Hollywood, “Everyone has multiple residences, but Jeff Bezos isn’t currently staying with his mother-in-law.

Ultimately, Kimmel criticized Trump for granting clemency to individuals who were found guilty of offenses related to the unsuccessful insurrection on January 6, 2021, following Trump’s refusal to acknowledge his electoral defeat.

“Additionally, Trump granted clemency to approximately 1500 individuals who were found guilty of storming the Capitol on January 6th. This was done in full view of an enthusiastic audience, ironically the same crowd he had previously criticized Biden for pardoning his family members in front of. A key distinction: Biden’s pardons were given to people who hadn’t committed crimes, while Trump’s pardons were given to those who did.
