First lady Melania Trump is not happy about late night host Jimmy Kimmel's recent joke about her.

"Look at Melania, so beautiful. Mrs. Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow," Kimmel quipped during a sketch on his show "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" The segment was the comedian's mock alternative speech to the White House Correspondents' Dinner, which aired two days before the real event the Trumps attended together ended in gunfire. Authorities subdued a heavily armed man who they say entered the Washington Hilton ballroom in an attempt to target administration officials.

In a post on X, the first lady called Kimmel's joke about her "hateful and violent."

"Look at Melania, so beautiful. Mrs. Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow,"

That's the hateful joke. That's it. With skin that thick, Melania could be an admin on .world!
