Kimmel Mocks Concern Over Illegal Immigrant Murderer In Michigan
ABCs Jimmy Kimmel is a strange man. On his Thursday show‚ Kimmel wondered why Donald Trump would travel to Michigan to talk about border security since the state borders Canada‚ while also accusing Trump of exploiting the death of Ruby Garcia‚ a Michigan woman recently murdered by an illegal immigrant.Kimmel was also not a fan of Trumps new campaign message‚ Somehow‚ in the middle of allthese prosecutions‚ Trump hasbeen on the road doing rallies‚where you know‚ when you thinkback on all the presidents‚there are so many great linesthroughout history.Like‚ Yes‚ we canand Tear down the wall‚The buck stops hereand this‚ new slogan fromDonald Trump‚ Stop Biden';sborder bloodbath.Thinking he had come up with some great gotcha moment‚ Kimmel continued‚ he unrolled that one inMichigan.The only border Michigan sharesis with Canada‚ but why getbogged down with details?Kimmel isnt actually dumb enough to think that illegal immigrants who commit crimes are confined to states along the Southern border‚ he just wanted a cheap joke about Trump being the dumb one‚ even if it made no logical sense.Kimmel proved he knew better when he accused Trump of shamelesslytrying to exploit the murder ofa young woman in Michigan‚ whowas allegedly killed by a manshe was dating‚ and who alsohappened to enter the countryillegally.He further accused Trump of liking the story‚ This is the kind of story heloves because it furthers thefalse narrative that immigrantscommit more crimes here thanAmericans do.So‚ he grabs on to this very sadstory about this woman namedRuby to use it to get elected.Not only did Kimmel leave off the illegal adjective‚ and not only did he ignore the fact that the man should never have been in the country in the first place‚ if there is one person in the media who should not be condemning others for using anecdotal evidence in support of a particular policy‚ it is Jimmy Kimmel‚ whose reputation as a political comedian is built off such claims.Here is a transcript for the April 4 show:ABC Jimmy Kimmel Live!4/4/202411:37 PM ETJIMMY KIMMEL: Somehow‚ in the middle of allthese prosecutions‚ Trump hasbeen on the road doing rallies‚where you know‚ when you thinkback on all the presidents‚there are so many great linesthroughout history.Like‚ ";Yes‚ we can";and ";Tear down the wall‚";";The buck stops here";and this‚ new slogan fromDonald Trump‚ ";Stop Biden';sborder bloodbath.";";Stop Biden';s border bloodbathand beyond‚"; is in fact is the--he unrolled that one inMichigan.The only border Michigan sharesis with Canada‚ but why getbogged down with details?Trump has been shamelesslytrying to exploit the murder ofa young woman in Michigan‚ whowas allegedly killed by a manshe was dating‚ and who alsohappened to enter the countryillegally.This is the kind of story heloves because it furthers thefalse narrative that immigrantscommit more crimes here thanAmericans do.So‚ he grabs on to this very sadstory about this woman namedRuby to use it to get elected.
