President Donald Trump celebrated the abrupt cancelation of Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Wednesday night with a blistering Truth Social post that cheered the end of the ABC late-night show.
Trump also called for two of Kimmel's network rivals, Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers to be fired next.
'Great News for America: The ratings challenged Jimmy Kimmel Show is CANCELLED,' Trump wrote.
'Congratulations to ABC for finally having the courage to do what had to be done. Kimmel has ZERO talent, and worse ratings than even Colbert, if that's possible. That leaves Jimmy and Seth, two total losers, on Fake News NBC. Their ratings are also horrible. Do it NBC!!!'
Trump's triumphant post cames only hours after ABC suspended Kimmel's show indefinitely, following the host's incendiary monologues about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, a staunch Trump ally.
ABC confirmed the late-night program had been pulled in a short statement.
'Jimmy Kimmel Live will be preempted indefinitely,' the network said.
Kimmel, who has hosted the show since 2003 and has been a vocal critic of Trump for years, sparked fury after mocking the political response to Kirk's killing on back-to-back nights.
