Jimmy Kimmel slams Donald Trump for 'vile and irresponsible' comments on LA fires Presenter Jimmy Kimmel has criticised Donald Trump and others for "vile and irresponsible" comments about the fires in California.
The 57-year-old talk show host has opened up about the "terrible" situation as fires have been blazing across over 40,000 acres in the Los Angeles area with at least 24 people dead, and thousands of homes destroyed.
Jimmy - who teared up live on air - pointed out that everyone in Los Angeles "knows someone" affected by the fires, and people "don't even know if it's over".
for the first time since the infernos, the host said: "Tonight, I don't want to get into all the vile and irresponsible and stupid things our alleged future president and his gaggle of scumbags chose to say during out darkest and most terrifying hour.
Everyone who lives in this city knows someone - most of us, multiple people; family, friends, colleagues, neighbors - whose house has burned down.
