AceShowbiz - In response to president Donald Trump's off-record lunch at the White House with network anchors on Thursday, May 18, Jimmy Kimmel took a jab at Trump's "interesting move" in Thursday episode of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!". The host shared footage of what the luncheon might look like behind its closed doors.
"We obtained the video which we can share with you now exclusively. This is video from inside the news anchors lunch at the White House today," he said in his monologue, before unveiling a hilarious spoof of the famous Red Wedding scene from "Game of Thrones".
The footage saw Trump and Ivanka Trump sitting at the head table. In Kimmel's version of Red Wedding, CNN's Wolf Blitzer and MSNBC's Rachel Maddow were spotted among the attendees. "I've given you meats, wine and musics. But, I haven't shown you the hospitality you deserve," said Trump's Lord Walder Frey.
The calm luncheon quickly became violent and turned into a bloody massacre as arrows started to fill the anchors' bodies. "Only Tucker Carlson survived," Kimmel joked.
The POTUS' relationship with media has always been tenuous, with the president calling CNN and several media outlets "fake news" several times. The Donald J. Trump for President organization even created an ad, featuring the words "fake news" in bold, red font written over photos of news anchors, including CNN's Wolf Blitzer.
