LIVE TV MELTDOWN: MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE GOES NUTS AFTER JIMMY KIMMEL DESTROYS HER AND DONALD TRUMP IN BRUTAL ON-AIR ROASTING THAT LEFT VIEWERS GASPING ⚡
It was a night of late-night fireworks on ABC as Jimmy Kimmel delivered one of his most cutting monologues of the year — and the fallout came fast. The Jimmy Kimmel Live! host took aim at Marjorie Taylor Greene and Donald Trump, turning what began as light political satire into a searing on-air takedown that instantly went viral across social media.
Kimmel opened by mocking Greene’s latest public comments, joking, “If ignorance were a superpower, she’d be leading the Avengers.” The crowd erupted in laughter, but things escalated when he pivoted to Trump, comparing the former president’s recent campaign rallies to “karaoke nights at a nursing home.” Within minutes, the clip had viewers online declaring it “the roast of the year.”
According to several audience members, Greene — who happened to be watching the show live — responded on X (formerly Twitter) in real time, launching into an explosive tirade. “Jimmy Kimmel is a disgrace to television,” she wrote. “This is why America doesn’t trust Hollywood.” Her posts were soon met with a flood of memes, parody videos, and trending hashtags like #KimmelVsGreene and #RoastGate.
Political commentators quickly weighed in, with CNN calling it “a masterclass in late-night satire” while Fox News blasted Kimmel for what it labeled “a politically motivated ambush.” Even some Trump allies privately admitted the jokes landed harder than expected, adding fuel to an already chaotic election season.
By morning, Kimmel’s team released a cheeky follow-up video titled “MTG’s Meltdown: The Remix”, further stoking the viral storm. As one industry insider put it, “You can’t script reactions like that — it’s pure late-night gold.”
Whether Greene chooses to fire back again or let the moment fade, one thing is clear: Jimmy Kimmel’s roast didn’t just light up Hollywood — it lit up Washington.
