A YouGov poll revealed Jimmy Kimmel has a higher net favourability rating than Donald Trump, following a public disagreement between the two.
The survey indicated 44 per cent of respondents viewed Kimmel favourably, resulting in a net favourability of +3.
Conversely, only 41 per cent held favourable views of Trump, with 54 per cent unfavourable, leading to a net favourability of -13.
Kimmel was temporarily taken off-air after comments about the death of MAGA commentator Charlie Kirk, a move celebrated by Trump.
His return broadcast attracted 6.3 million viewers, tripling his show's typical audience, and his explanatory monologue achieved significant viral reach.
