Jimmy Kimmel plunged straight into Monday night’s “drama” surrounding Major League Baseball’s decision to withdraw the Atlanta All-Star Game in protest against Georgia’s new voter suppression legislation. As the dawn host said, the MLB “did the right thing”, but “now the red hats are mad at them”, including “Tanny Ramirez”, who posted one of his statements on Twitter over the weekend.
“Baseball is already losing a huge number of fans and now they leave Atlanta with their All-Star game because they are afraid of the radical Left Democrats …” Donald Trump said of the decision. “Boycott baseball and all companies that are interfering in free and fair elections. You are listening to Coca, Delta and everything! “
“Now, Donald Trump calling for a boycott of Coca-Cola is beautiful,” replied Kimmel. “He had a Coke Diet button on the Oval Office table. The man urinates aspartame, okay? “
“And it’s especially funny because with all his complaints about canceling the culture, this guy tried to cancel more culture than anyone!” he continued, explaining that “if you heard Trump, you would have to cancel” everything from baseball, Coca-Cola and Delta Airlines to Apple, Amazon and Fox News, among dozens of other major American entities.
During his first year as president, Trump attacked Merck, the company that makes Propecia. “What are the chances that Donald Trump will actually give up Diet Coke or his bald medicine?” Kimmel asked. “None, but he wants you to do it.”
On top of that, there was the photo that former White House aide Stephen Miller posted on Monday with Trump, in which a bottle of Coca was visibly hidden behind his desk phone.
“It is not the best?” Kimmel asked. “Cheer up the Republicans! You can no longer watch football, baseball, basketball or NASCAR. But you can still watch Trump play golf and drink Coke. “
