LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel found humor in an odd occurrence at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, comparing the scene to that of an "insane asylum."

The incident, captured on video, featured boxer Ryan Garcia engaging in a peculiar ceremony endorsing the former president.

Amidst the backdrop of Trump's ongoing legal woes, including his trial in New York related to the Stormy Daniels hush money case, Kimmel seized upon the absurdity of the situation.

A report highlighting Trump's discomfort during the trial, particularly his struggle with remaining silent, prompted Kimmel to quip that if Trump disliked silence, he might find prison to be an enjoyable experience.

"There is no more horrible thing than just having to sit there and be quiet," remarked supermarket mogul and Trump pal John Catsimatidis to The Wall Street Journal.

“If that’s the case, he’s gonna love prison,” Kimmel snarked back. “He’s gonna have a great time.”



 

However, it was an incident at Mar-a-Lago that truly captured Kimmel's attention. Boxer Ryan Garcia made an appearance at the resort, where he proceeded to shadowbox in front of Trump before endorsing him in what can only be described as a bizarre ceremony.

Kimmel humorously likened Garcia to 'Smokin’ Joe Frazier, adding a comedic twist to the surreal nature of the event.

“Remember Smokin’ Joe Frazier? That’s Smokin’ Everything Frazier,” Kimmel said. “I mean if you told me that was video from an insane asylum I wouldn’t bat an eye.”

The segment then took a lighthearted turn as Kimmel shared his weekend escapades, including a solo trip to Disneyland. Yet, the underlying theme of Trump’s tumultuous post-presidency lingered as Kimmel delved back into the chaos surrounding the former commander-in-chief.

From Trump’s courtroom antics to his rendezvous with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, Kimmel painted a picture of a man grappling with legal woes while still basking in the spotlight of his loyal supporters.

Notably absent from Trump’s corner, however, were his sons, who Kimmel mocked for their relentless pursuit of a trivial $130,000 payment while Trump faces far weightier legal battles.

Kimmel quipped, “Every time they shut down the FDR Drive, it costs 50 times that. No one believes it.”

But the absurdity didn’t stop there. Kimmel turned his attention to potential running mates for Trump, highlighting South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem’s eyebrow-raising memoir excerpts detailing her decision to euthanize her family dog.

Kimmel’s incredulity at Noem’s actions echoed the sentiments of many, questioning the judgment of a politician vying for national office. He remarked, “This is a crazy person.”

The segment concluded with Kimmel poking fun at Trump’s dubious track record with women, juxtaposed with his claim to respect them deeply.

With a majority of men reportedly believing that Trump respects women, Kimmel couldn’t help but inject a dose of humor into the stark reality. He sarcastically remarked, “Yeah, Mr grab him by the [expletive] has total respect for women.”
