Jimmy Kimmelhad a swift retort after President Trump mocked the Oscars low viewership on Twitter.Kimmel, who hosted Sundays Academy Awards, directly responded to Trumps tweet by calling him out for having the lowest approval rating of any United States president.
During his Tuesday night monologue, Kimmel elaborated on the jab, saying that Trump might appreciate the Best Picture Award winner, The Shape of Water.The movie, if you havent seen it, its about a monster who has sex with a woman who cant talk about it. Basically, its like his life story. Right?
Kimmel pointed out that Trump always pits himself against the Academy Awards. Trump loves saying the ratings are down, saying thats some kind of show of support for him, said Kimmel, even though viewership for all major televised events from the Grammys to the Super Bowl have declined in recent years.
Thanks, lowest rated President in HISTORY. https://t.co/E01UgDaZ3T

Donald Trump Jr. also mocked the Oscars on Twitter, using a raised-hand emoji to show that he hadnt watched it. You know thats an authentic Trump hand, Kimmel said. Because its gold and tiny.
