The news of President Donald Trump shockingly firing FBI director James Comey surprises everyone. Jimmy Kimmel was one of many people who was extremely shocked by the removal. The host brought up the topic in his monologue in Tuesday, May 9 episode of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"

"Few hours ago, he fired James Comey, the director of the FBI, which is kind of like O.J. [Simpsons] firing Judge Ito halfway through the trial," he opened his monologue. "He fired the director of the FBI while the director was investigating [Trump's] people and possible collusion with Russia," he marveled.

He continued drawing an analogy between Donald's decision and the "kind of things reality TV hosts do." When thinking about it, Jimmy assumed that maybe Donald thought that he was still on "The Celebrity Apprentice". He added, "It was between James Comey and Meatloaf, and, well, The Loaf won again."

Jimmy later noted that the reason behind the firing was because James allegedly "mishandled the Hillary Clinton email situation." The host found the reasoning hilarious because it meant that the POTUS fired James for making him a president. "He really does hate doing his job," Jimmy concluded.

Calling Donald's move "outrageous," Jimmy said that when something outrageous happened, he did something about it. At the end of his monologue, he was promoting his "Comey Is My Homey" T-shirt, which he sells at $29.99. "I will use some of the money to send a very nasty letter directly to the Oval office. Also available in women and baby tees."
