President Donald Trump doubled on Wednesday that late night hosts Jimmy Follen and Jimmy Kimmel would be “next” to be canceled during a press conference.
During the Pressure, Real America’s Voice Reporter Brian Glenn asked about the reports that radio host Howard Sterness could participate with Serious XM, after ending this decline of their contract. Keeping this in mind, Glenn asked if the “Hate Trump” entertainment model was losing popularity with Americans.
Trump recently quoted CBS’s “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” as an example and said that he believes that Follen and Kimmel are next.

“Well, it’s not worked,” said Trump. “And it’s not the work, in fact, for a long time, and I will say too much from the beginning. Colbert has no talent. I mean, I can take anyone here. I can go out on beautiful streets and choose some people who do just or better. They will get more ratings than that. He did not get any talent.”
He said, “Follen has no talent. Kimmel has no talent. They are going ahead. I have heard that they are going. I don’t know, but I think they would think that they know, Kolbert has a better rating than kimmel or fallen.”
Trump made a similar announcement on Truth social after cancellation of Colbert’s show last month.
“The word is, and it is a strong word over it, Jimmy Kimmel is ahead to go to the sweepstake late night and soon after, the Follen will go,” Trump wrote.

He said, “These are people with talent, who were paid millions of dollars in all cases, which were great television, it is really good to see them destroying them, and I hope I have played a major role in it!”
Although some liberal commentators claimed that CBS canceled Colbert’s show for political reasons to appeal to Trump, the Paramount -CBS original company – gave them “purely a financial decision”.
Regarding Stern, Trump commented on how he used to “enjoy” when he appeared in his show. He said that in 2016, the Sterness went downhill after supporting Hillary Clinton for the President.
