Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel struggled to hold back tears as he discussed Donald Trump’s 2024 presidential election victory during his show. Kimmel, a Democrat, listed several groups he believed would be negatively impacted by Trump’s second term. He mentioned women, children, immigrants, healthcare, climate, science, journalism, justice, poor people, the middle class, seniors, and allies in Ukraine. Kimmel also expressed that it was a tough night for Trump’s supporters, who might not yet realize the challenges ahead. On a lighter note, he joked about the incoming first lady, Melania Trump, having a rough night.

Despite the overall gloomy outlook, Kimmel acknowledged some winners from Trump’s victory. These included foreign leaders like Vladimir Putin, wealthy individuals, tech entrepreneurs like Elon Musk, and those who supported Trump’s campaign. Kimmel’s emotional response came after Trump secured a historic second term by winning several key states and surpassing the Electoral College threshold. Republicans are now aiming for a political trifecta with potential gains in the Senate and House.
