'Intimidating jurors is no joke': Internet weighs in as Jimmy Kimmel delights in witty remarks from potential Trump jurors
MANHATTAN, NEW YORK CITY: During Thursday's episode of 'Jimmy Kimmel Live', Jimmy Kimmel delved into various Donald Trump-related topics in his monologue.

Kimmel even joked about one particularly witty remark, expressing a desire to hire the individual who made it.
However, before delving into that, he explored other aspects of the trial.
One aspect Kimmel honed in on was Trump's appearance, specifically noting the peculiarity of Trump's orange complexion being seemingly absent everywhere except his face.
"This is what Trump looked like at the defense table today," Kimmel remarked, displaying an image of Trump with a very orange face and pale hands that starkly contrasted with his facial color.
"I want you to note the difference between the color of his hands and the color of his face. We did not doctor this," Kimmel assured his audience. "Those are his hands, and his face."
"Those shades aren't even on the same Sherwin-Williams color palette. Looks like a cantaloupe wearing batting gloves or something," Kimmel continued, drawing laughs from the audience.
He then seamlessly transitioned to discussing the jurors' descriptions of Trump.
"Here's how one potential juror described him, shortly after she was dismissed," Kimmel said before playing a clip. In the clip, a woman who had been a prospective juror remarked that Trump looked "more yellow" than orange and appeared "bored."
"He's yellow and bored," Kimmel chuckled. "Like a minion or something."
Moving on, Kimmel highlighted how each potential juror had to share their thoughts on Trump, leading to amusing comments.
For instance, one woman quipped, "I wouldn't believe Trump if his tongue were notarized."
"You know that woman, she did not get picked as a juror, but I would like to hire her as a writer if she’s interested," Kimmel added with a smile.
Netizens react to Jimmy Kimmel's remarks
Social media was abuzz with laughter after Kimmel's comments, with some of the comments reading:
"Why the hell are ANY of the news networks allowed to say ANYTHING about the jurors?? I thought their identities were supposed to be protected?" said one user.
Another user wrote, "This intimidating jurors is no joke. We have many more trials to go. Marchan needs to get this under control, or no one will want to serve."
"Who the F acts like that during their criminal trial? Seriously?" said one person referring to Trump.
"Trump describes the inside of a courtroom accurately, acts like it's some kind of injustice. Imagine every criminal acting this way," one more person said.
"Shout out to Judge Milian of The People's Court who made " I wouldn't believe you if your tongue came notarized " a household phrase," said another person.
Another individual praised Kimmel and wrote, "Jimmy Kimmel is to Trump what Norm Macdonald was to OJ. Unrelenting, unyielding, and no holds barred. Bravo, Jimmy."
