Donald and Melania Trump call for ABC to fire Jimmy Kimmel after his 'expectant widow' joke about the first lady

Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel made a joke on Thursday's 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' describing Melania Trump as having 'the glow of an expectant widow,' part of a mock White House Correspondents' Dinner routine. Two days later, a gunman attempted to enter the actual WHCA dinner ballroom where the Trumps were present, resulting in charges against Cole Allen for attempted assassination. On Monday, Melania Trump posted on X calling for ABC to 'take a stand,' and President Trump posted on Truth Social calling for Kimmel to be fired; Kimmel responded that evening by defending the joke as a reference to the couple's age difference and refusing to apologize.
