NextImg:Jimmy Kimmel Jabs Trump's Sorest Of All Sore Spots With Humiliating Video Evidence
LOADINGERROR LOADING

Jimmy Kimmel took aim at a sore subject for Donald Trump on Thursday: crowd size.

The former president bragged about his audience during a Long Island, NY rally earlier this week, where he claimed “nobody” can draw a crowd like him.

“I’m the greatest of all time, maybe greater even than Elvis, because Elvis had a guitar, I don’t have a guitar. Elvis had a guitar, I don’t have the privilege of a guitar,” Trump said.

Kimmel finished the thought for the former president.

“Thanks to my tiny baby hands I am unable to play the guitar,” Kimmel said.

Trump’s boast about his crowd led Kimmel to deliver a fact-check with video evidence. The late night host rolled footage of the Nassau Coliseum audience during Trump’s speech, showing vast sections of empty seats and people headed for the exits.

“Elvis hadn’t left the building,” Kimmel said. “But half the crowd had.”

Crowd sizes have long been a sore spot for Trump, who likes to brag about them ― and definitely doesn’t like when people point out empty seats, or fans leaving early.

Vice President Kamala Harris mentioned it at their debate earlier this month, and it not only sidetracked Trump during the debate itself but he’s also been complaining about it ever since.
