After Trump received the Nobel Peace Prize from Venezuelan politician María Corina Machado on Thursday (15), Jimmy Kimmel made an offer to the U.S. president to withdraw ICE agents currently in Minneapolis.
“Trump loves awards. Giving him an award is the only way to get him to do anything, and with that said, Mr. President, I have an offer that I think you’ll find hard to refuse,” Kimmel said during his monologue.
He showed his collection of awards that he has won over the years and announced that if Trump — and only he — withdrew the agents occupying the city of Minneapolis.
“And best of all, I’m willing to hand over my 2015 Soul Train Award for White Person of the Year if you do it. The choice is yours.”
“I will personally deliver any one of them — or even all of them — to the Oval Office in exchange for leaving the people of Minneapolis alone,” Jimmy Kimmel added, saying he would hand over the trophies himself.
Kimmel displayed his Daytime Emmy, which he won in 1999, an award for Best Game Show Host for Ben Stein’s Money, as well as a Clio Award, a Webby Award, and an award from the Writers Guild of America.
The offer came after the host showed a photo of Trump standing next to María Corina Machado as she bows to present the Nobel Peace Prize medal to the U.S. president.
“Have you ever seen anyone happier than him, winning an award he didn’t even win?!” Kimmel said.
“Thank you for the Nobel Prize. Here’s a Make America Great Again mug. Thanks for the visit,” he joked.
