Host of ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ Jimmy Kimmel has been blasted for a “vile” joke about US President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania. On Thursday, Kimmel held a parody of the White House Correspondents' Dinner before the actual event took place on Saturday. During the parody event, Kimmel joked that Melania had a “glow like an expectant widow” only days before a third attempt on Trump’s life.
