The controversy surrounding Jimmy Kimmel and Melania Trump continues after the late night comedian made a very insensitive joke about the First Lady.
Soon, calls from Melania and Trump were on the rise to have him fired, calling his actions unacceptable, ordering ABC to do the deed as soon as possible.
{img}Kimmel tried to defend his joke and the controversy linked to this matter. He rolled out an apology to the first lady, but not for this comedy.
During his episode that went on air on Monday, he broke his silence over the obvious joke and explained how it was a light roast and nothing more.
{img}He did say sorry for something else, not exactly the joke. And that was how apologetic he felt for her, the president, and all those in the room that day who had to go through the trauma of a shooter in the building, putting their lives at risk.
While some felt the apology was a great step forward, others thought it was not good enough, calling it half-hearted to save himself from being fired.
