Jimmy Kimmel Says It’s “Cruel And Unusual” To Make “Poor Kamala Harris” Certify Donald Trump’s Win: “Like Making Your Ex DJ Your Wedding”

Jimmy Kimmel rang in his first late night show of the year (which notably fell on the four-year anniversary of the Jan. 6 insurrection), by making fun of Republicans and Democrats alike for this “peaceful” transfer of power to Donald Trump.

The late night host lamented the fact that “poor Kamala Harris” had to certify her opponent’s victory that day as vice president.

“In a master stroke of irony, Congress certified Donald Trump’s victory today of all days,” Kimmel said during the Jan. 6 episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live. “This one went off without Ted Cruz having to hide in a broom closet. This time he was just in there looking at stepmom porn.”

Kimmel claimed it felt “cruel and unusual” to have Harris certify the election results.

“This is like making your ex DJ your wedding,” he joked.

He went on to call Democrats out for a rather “uneventful” Jan. 6.

“Harris made it clear she was following the oath she had taken as vice president and ensuring the peaceful transfer of power to the next administration. Boring!” Kimmel exclaimed.

Kimmel joked that the Democrats could have thrown an insurrection of their own.

“You notice how uneventful it was today? The Democrats lost and they accepted they lost,” he continued. “There were no vegan baristas scaling the walls, no one was wearing animal horns, no one was in face paint calling themselves the BlueAnon Shaman.”
