Jimmy Kimmel Says He’s Filing A Federal Complaint Against The Trumps

Jimmy Kimmel might end up costing President Donald Trump’s family some big money.

In light of the White House’s “buy American” rhetoric, the “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” host bought a bunch of merchandise from the Trump Store, which is run by two of the president’s sons, to see where it all came from.

“I’m sure Eric and Donald Jr. take this American thing very seriously,” Kimmel said. “These guys are red, white and blue to the core. They’re like a couple of flags wearing hair gel, these two.”

Well, not so much.

Most of the merchandise Kimmel purchased was made abroad, and two items didn’t list a country of origin at all. Kimmel said such an omission could lead to potential fines of up to $500,000 if it turns out these products were made overseas.

“This could be very expensive,” Kimmel said. “Not to mention embarrassing. Are they even capable of shame? I mean Trump’s whole platform is about American companies, his company isn’t even supporting America!”

And Kimmel has a way to fix it.

“I’ll just file an official complaint and let them sort it out,” he said to cheers.

As if Trump supporters will even remotely care. He could explicitly outsource their jobs to China and they would still hail him as their saviour.

So that's what MAGA really means!

So it seems.

It's no surprise all of Trump's products/companies come from overseas. His followers are so blinded by Trumps....charisma(?) that they ignore how he constantly says globalism is terrible while also having plenty of companies and products made elsewhere. The man is without a doubt a conman.

The unfortunate part of this story?

That he had to give Trump money.

The whole unfortunate part of his presidency is us giving him money.

Russian steel imports were up 24 percent last year. So, yes.

Again I saw clips of Donny Orange Turd at the Pennsylvania rally. One sign directly behind him read: Buy American. I swear you Trumpkin voters are so...

During the campaign there was a report about Ivanka's clothes being made in China, and being highly flammable.

This should have been the moment this went under investigation. Not sure why it took this long to point it out.

weird how so much of what Trump does ends up at Russia's wallet, yet its supposed to be a witchhunt

Like suing Michael Jordan because your Nikes are junk, just because it has his name on it, doesn't mean it's his product. Trump makes, nothing. He's a brand.

It is NOT like that at all. Jordan is a brand name. The Trump items are made by the Trump Organization - or whatever. The difference, while mildly subtle, is huge legally.

Jordan's name is used by Nike as a brand and Nike makes the products. The MAGA hats and bullshit are directly manufactured by Trump's organization. That's a huge difference.

The equivalent would be Nike saying Jordans were all made in Chicago to support Chicago business but actually being made in China.

Oh, is that #MeToo Jimmy Kimmel going on another one of his crusades? No asking women to fondle his junk this time, or jump on trampolines while wearing short skirts?

Ad hominem attacks right off the bat, eh?

Which has nothing to do with his point so you're contributing nothing.

What does that have to do with anything?
