The long-running feud between Donald Trump and Jimmy Kimmel has never been subtle. For years, the former president and the late-night host have traded jabs, insults, and viral moments. But this week, as talk of newly released Epstein-related documents dominated national headlines, their rivalry exploded again — louder, sharper, and more personal than ever.

It all began with a single late-night joke. During his monologue, Kimmel warned that a “Category 5 Hurricane Epstein” might be heading straight for Trump. Though clearly satire, the joke spread instantly across social media, and reactions piled up. Within hours, Trump fired back on Truth Social, blasting ABC and demanding they “get the bum off the air.”The timing added fuel. Congress had just passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act with overwhelming bipartisan support, and Trump had signed it earlier that day. Kimmel’s comment hit during a moment of heightened political scrutiny — and Trump took it personally.Their clash is no longer just entertainment versus politics; it reflects America’s larger cultural divide. And with the Epstein files now in the spotlight, the feud between Trump and Kimmel is far from over.
