OUTRAGE: Jimmy Kimmel TORCHES Trump Over “Tone-Deaf” Great Gatsby Bash As Millions Lose Food Aid — “The Trumpiest Move Of All Time” 😱🎃🍸

Jimmy Kimmel Spoils Trump's Party With A Pointed Jeffrey Epstein Observation

Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel didn’t hold back Monday night as he ripped into President Donald Trump for throwing what he called “the most ill-timed, tone-deaf Halloween party imaginable.”

Just hours before SNAP benefits—the federal program that provides food assistance to millions of low-income Americans—were set to expire, Trump reportedly hosted an extravagant “Great Gatsby”-themed bash at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.

Kimmel was visibly disgusted. “A theme you would select only if you’ve never read The Great Gatsby,” he joked, showing photos of the party’s 1920s-inspired ballroom dripping with gold, champagne, and chandeliers. Guests dressed in vintage tuxedos and feathered headpieces as a live jazz band played under a banner reading “The Roaring Twenties Reborn.”

“Throwing a party at your private golf club, where the theme is rich white people, hours before millions of Americans lose their food assistance, might be the Trumpiest Trump move of all time,” Kimmel said. “It felt like the last big bash before the Epstein files come out.

The comment drew gasps—and cheers—from his audience.

💥 “The Trumpiest Move Ever”

Kimmel, known for mixing biting humor with social commentary, tore into the sheer absurdity of the event. “You can’t make this up,” he said. “It’s like throwing a Marie Antoinette-themed party while cutting bread subsidies.”

According to multiple reports, Trump and his inner circle partied well into the night, while outside the resort gates, activists protested the expiration of food benefits that millions of Americans depend on to eat.

😳 The Epstein Files Connection

Kimmel’s jab about “the Epstein files” hit another nerve. Trump and his allies have repeatedly promised to release documents related to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, who once counted Trump among his close associates.

That promise, however, has gone unfulfilled. Instead, Trump has dismissed the topic as a “Democrat hoax.”

Meanwhile, momentum is building in Congress to force the files’ release. A discharge petition—a rare procedural move that can bypass leadership to bring a bill to the floor—now reportedly has enough signatures to proceed.

But there’s a catch: House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), one of Trump’s most loyal allies, has kept the House in recess for over a month, effectively blocking the vote.

“Why are we in recess? Because the day we go back into session, I have 218 votes to force a vote on releasing the Epstein files,” Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) revealed in a fiery post last month.

Johnson, however, has claimed the recess is justified, insisting the House has already passed its spending bills and is waiting on the Senate to act amid the looming government shutdown.

🥂 A Party Amid Poverty

Critics across the political spectrum have slammed the optics of Trump’s glittering Mar-a-Lago bash. Photos from the event show long tables lined with champagne flutes, caviar, and gold-trimmed invitations—a stark contrast to the families now struggling to put food on their tables.

“Nothing says ‘I care about America’ like sipping a $500 cocktail while millions face hunger,” one viral tweet read.

Kimmel echoed that outrage. “He’s literally cosplaying as the 1%—at a time when people can’t afford groceries,” the comedian said. “If F. Scott Fitzgerald were alive, he’d sue for defamation.”

The Jimmy Kimmel Live! segment quickly went viral, racking up millions of views across X (formerly Twitter) and YouTube within hours.

Social media exploded after the broadcast, with many praising Kimmel for calling out the former president’s “Marie Antoinette moment.”

“Jimmy Kimmel just said what everyone’s thinking,” one viewer wrote. “Trump is throwing Gatsby parties while Americans are starving. Unreal.”

Others joked that the entire scene felt like a deleted chapter from Fitzgerald’s novel—complete with moral decay, excess, and denial. “We’re officially living in The Great Gatsby 2: The Hunger Games Edition,” another tweet read.

💬 What’s Next

While the Epstein files remain sealed and the House stuck in recess, public pressure is mounting for transparency. Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have expressed frustration at the ongoing delay, calling it “a slap in the face to victims and their families.”

As for Trump, he appears unfazed. Sources close to the former president told reporters he viewed the Mar-a-Lago event as a “celebration of resilience and prosperity.”

Kimmel had the last word: “Yeah, sure. Prosperity for who? The only SNAP at that party was the sound of lobster tails being cracked open.”

The audience roared.

Once again, Jimmy Kimmel proved why he remains one of the most fearless voices in late-night television — unafraid to mock the powerful, challenge hypocrisy, and remind viewers what real empathy looks like.

And as for Trump’s “Great Gatsby” party? Kimmel summed it up perfectly:

“Old sport, you might want to read the book before you start living it.” 💥🍾
