"The impeachment train is picking up steam," Jimmy Kimmel said on Monday's Kimmel Live, running through the various depositions House impeachment investigators have conducted in President Trump's Ukraine scandal and catching up on the legal woes of Trump's lawyer Rudy Giuliani. "Make no mistake, the president is melting down like a creamsicle in July," Kimmel said. "He's threatening to sue Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff — which you can't do, and not only that, who's he going to get to sue them? All his lawyers are either in jail or going there soon."

"With this and the impeachment and Turkey and Syria and all manner of hell breaking loose," Trump is urging followers to vote for Sean Spicer on Dancing With the Stars, Kimmel said. "And that might be his greatest abuse of power yet."
