Jimmy Kimmel lashed out at Republicans and President Donald Trump in his monologue on Monday.
Charlie Kirk was assassinated on September 10, murdered at a university speaking event in Utah. On the September 15 episode of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" the host went against the apparent preponderance of evidence and claimed Kirk was killed by a man who shared similar beliefs.
"We hit some new lows over the weekend," Kimmel said, just two minutes into his show. The 57-year-old then placed blame at the feet of the Make America Great Again crowd, saying Kirk's killer was part of their movement.
"With the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it," Kimmel remarked.
