Jimmy Kimmel mocks 'Trumpy Bear' advert in new sketch taking aim at US president

Trumpy Bear is a plush modelled after Donald Trump, complete with a straw-like combover

Jimmy Kimmel has taken aim at one of the most bizarre products to be advertised on US TV this year.

The "Trumpy Bear" is a plush modelled after Donald Trump, complete with a lengthy red tie, a straw-like comb-over, and a tiny, puckered mouth. It comes with an American flag blanket that is hidden in a cavern in the bear's neck, accessible through a convenient zipper. It also happens to be made in China.

The bear currently retails for two payments of $19.95 and claims to be "a piece of American history", complete with a certificate of authenticity.

Its accompanying ad, which has run on Fox News, opens with the words: "The wind whispered... through the forest. A storm is coming... you cannot defeat the storm. From the trees... rose a resounding voice. I fear nothing. I come when the trumpet sounds. I am the storm."

Kimmel decided to spoof the bizarre clip by making his own additions, with the bear being ironically praised by a child torn away from her mother at the border and a black man suffering discriminatory police stops.

The sketch further introduced some new surprises hidden in Trumpy Bear's neck hole: a framed photo of Vladimir Putin, a half-eaten cheeseburger, tanning goggles, a six-piece KFC meal, a dead baby duck, and a fully loaded assault rifle.
