Jimmy Kimmel‘s got jokes.
During his monologue on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday night (Nov. 3), the comedian and late-night talk show host mentioned President Donald Trump‘s recent fascination with backsides as he talked about the Democrats taking back both the House and the Senate in historic fashion.
“After all the talk about Nicki Minaj’s a–, Jon Husted’s a–. The only a– on Trump’s mind tonight is the one that just got handed to him by America,” he quipped before throwing a shot at the vice president. “The Democrats took so many seats, J.D. Vance can’t even find one to have sex with him tonight.”

As far as Nicki Minaj goes, Kimmel was referencing Trump shouting out the Queens rapper’s derrière at a rally in Michigan last week (Oct. 25). “By the way, I looked at one hell of a beautiful a– before… Nicki Minaj,” Trump told the crowd as he told her to stand up. “That’s hard to miss.”
Trump and Minaj have become fast friends to the point where she flew on Air Force One to the aforementioned rally in the midwest after a staffer floated Nicki’s name as a potential candidate to fill the recently vacated press secretary role and she even addressed the crowd for a bit. “President Trump, it is an honor to stand with you every single time,” she said. “And I will continue to support you forever and ever. If you run again, I will support you again. I am so honored to be working with this president. He represents resilience. Since he’s come back, he’s changed the energy of our country. And he’s given us a future to look forward to, a brighter future for us and our children.”
When asked straight up if she would indeed be the next White House press secretary, President Trump suggested that it could be a possibility. “That’s a good idea,” he told host Benny Johnson. “I think I’ll have to think about that… I’m gonna think about that.”
