‘It’s just unbelievable’: Jimmy Kimmel to leave US? Comedian startling relocation hint shocks fans

Jimmy Kimmel has revealed he has got an Italian citizenship and has hinted at a possible re-location to Europe because he is scared of President Donald Trump. “I did get Italian citizenship,” Kimmel shared on The Sarah Silverman Podcast Aug. 7. “I do have that.” And his reasoning? “What's going on is as bad as you thought it was gonna be.”

The 57-year-old late night American television host and comedian revealed he is seriously thinking about leaving the United States. Sarah Silverman noted that several outspoken Trump critics have already left the country. “What’s going on is … as bad as you thought it was gonna be, it’s so much worse. It’s just unbelievable. I feel like it’s probably even worse than [Trump] would like it to be,” Kimmel responded.

Jimmy Kimmel to leave US?

Jimmy Kimmel has revealed that he recently obtained Italian citizenship and is considering moving to Europe because he is scared of Trump. His remarks came days after Trump said he and his fellow late-night host Jimmy Fallon would be next to lose their jobs following the cancellation of Stephen Colbert’s CBS show.


Kimmel added that he had no hard feelings toward former MAGA supporters who are now doing a 180 on their political stance. “There are a lot of people … now you see these clips of Joe Rogan saying, ‘Why’s he doing this? He shouldn’t be deporting people.’ People go, ‘F–k you, you supported him.’ I don’t buy into that. I don’t believe ‘F–k you, you supported him,’ ” he said, referring to the podcaster speaking out against Trump’s deportation policy after having supported the commander-in-chief in previous elections.

“I think the door needs to stay open. If you want to change your mind, that’s so hard to do. If you want to admit you were wrong, that’s so hard and so rare to do. You are welcome.”

Trump wants Jimmy Kimmel to GO

Earlier this month, Trump doubled down on Jimmy Kimmel that would be “next” to be canceled during a press conference. Trump cited CBS’ recent cancellation of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” as an example and added that he believes Jimmy Fallon and Kimmel are next.

“Well, it hasn’t worked,” Trump said. “And it hasn’t worked, really, for a long time, and I would say pretty much from the beginning. Colbert has no talent. I mean, I could take anybody here. I could go outside in the beautiful streets and pick a couple of people that do just as well or better. They’d get higher ratings than he did. He’s got no talent.”

He continued, “Fallon has no talent. Kimmel has no talent. They’re next. They’re going to be going. I hear they’re going to be going. I don’t know, but I would imagine because they’d get—you know, Colbert has better ratings than Kimmel or Fallon.”

Trump made a similar declaration on Truth Social after Colbert’s show was canceled last month.

“The word is, and it’s a strong word at that, Jimmy Kimmel is NEXT to go in the untalented Late Night Sweepstakes and, shortly thereafter, Fallon will be gone,” Trump wrote.

He continued, “These are people with absolutely NO TALENT, who were paid Millions of Dollars for, in all cases, destroying what used to be GREAT Television. It’s really good to see them go, and I hope I played a major part in it!”
