They are all terrified of King Donald.

In a Truth Social post, President Trump said he directed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to send U.S. troops to Portland, Oregon. Mayor Keith Wilson dismissed the threat, calling it β€œa big show of force, and nothing more.”

Dictators hate mockeryβ€”because their power relies on fear.

Thus Kimmel.

In essence, humor is a form of resistance.
