American TV host Jimmy Kimmel has taken a swipe at former U.S. President Donald Trump after his unusual claim about an escalator incident at the United Nations. Trump had suggested that the escalator he used was deliberately tampered with, calling it “sabotage.” Kimmel, known for mixing comedy with politics on his late-night show, quickly turned the comment into a joke that left his audience laughing.

According to Kimmel, Trump’s complaint sounded exaggerated and dramatic. He joked that world leaders were unlikely to plot against an escalator just to embarrass Trump. The comedian further poked fun by comparing the situation to one of Trump’s frequent conspiracy-style remarks.

The video clip from Kimmel’s show has gone viral online, with many Americans weighing in. While Trump’s supporters defended him, critics found humor in Kimmel’s satire. The moment once again shows how Trump’s comments continue to spark both debate and laughter in U.S. politics.
