And I am looking forward to what he has to say. I refuse to judge though. He has a family and a team. Lots on his shoulders. We know his heart.

ABC executives have previously pressured hosts over their Trump talk, with late night host Jimmy Kimmel revealing in 2022 that the networks top bosses asked him to tone it down when he began to regularly quip about Trump.
Kimmel told the Naked Lunch podcast that he informed execs that he wouldnt let up on the jokes even if they fired him. They eventually backed away from the ask, he noted.
