Jimmy Kimmel turns Megyn Kelly's recap of her Donald Trump meeting into a hostage video


On Wednesday, Donald Trump met with "one of his arch nemeses, Megyn Kelly of Fox News," Jimmy Kimmel noted on Thursday's Kimmel Live. They met in his office and "in the end, they agreed to put aside their differences and get back to what's important, which is getting white people very angry," he said. Kelly talked about the meeting on her show Wednesday night, Kimmel added, "and is it just me, or does it have the feel of one of those forced hostage videos?" If you didn't see the hostage angle, watch the clip when Kimmel's team was done with it. Peter Weber
