Jimmy Kimmel said President Donald Trump has a go-to move when it comes to big decisions: stall for time.
The president went to it again this week while trying to decide on military intervention in Iran.
“Trump gave Iran what he called the ‘ultimate ultimatum,’ which is kind of like the ‘final finale,’ but scarier,” Kimmel said. “He really enjoys making threats, and he loves attaching them to timelines.”
Trump said he’d make a decision on Iran within two weeks.
“It’s always two weeks,” Kimmel pointed out. “For a guy whose catchphrase was ‘You’re fired,’ no one has ever given more two weeks’ notice than Donald J. Trump.”
Kimmel rolled a minute-long supercut video of Trump promising various things within two weeks, ending with a vow to sign a new health care plan into law ― also in two weeks.
“That was July 19, 2020,” Kimmel noted. “We’re still waiting for him to sign that health care plan, and on almost all of the other stuff, too.”
