[Wash Examiner] President Trump is taking a toll on journalists and political commentators, some of whom are watching angrily Trump dives into healthcare and foreign policy, while others admit that covering Trump may be affecting their health.
ABC "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" host Jimmy Kimmel, who has risen as a prominent voice in the healthcare debate, was angry this week over Trump and Republicans' latest attempt repeal Obamacare. He criticized the new Graham-Cassidy GOP healthcare bill a "scam" that he said is supported by Republicans who "eight years ago, they didn't want anyone to have health care at all."
In his opening monologue, Kimmel also threatened a Fox News host who had previously accused Kimmel of being one of the "Hollywood elites" who are "pushing their politics on the rest of the country."
Calling Kilmeade a "phony little creep," Kimmel said, "I'll pound you when I see you."
Last weekend, liberal Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank said Trump's presidency is literally "killing" him.
