Jimmy Kimmel mocked President Donald Trump over a bizarre White House ceremony held for the raising of two new flagpoles on the lawn.
“I think what happened was someone told Trump his poll numbers were bad and he was like, ‘Well, then, let’s add two more poles,’” Kimmel said.
Trump bragged that the poles are “magnificent” and “the largest you’ll ever see” as he and others gathered to watch them erected.
Except he wouldn’t use that word.
“I’m not gonna use that word,” Trump said. “Do you know what that is? The word? It starts with an ‘E.’ You know what the word is?”
Kimmel wondered aloud if the word might be “Eric,” then hit the president with a joke that landed below the belt.
“We do know what the word that starts with an ‘E’ is, and I’m guessing you haven’t been able to achieve one in many years. Hence, the poles,” Kimmel fired back. “Now he’s an erection denier, too!”
