Jimmy Kimmel Spots Unexpected Trump ‘Mental Lapse’

Jimmy Kimmel spotted a rare moment of honesty from Donald Trump on Wednesday.

“I don’t know if he had a mental lapse or if he just forgot to keep lying, but he said he lost!” Kimmel said, then rolled footage of Trump at an event earlier that day.

At first, Trump delivered his usual bluster about the 2020 election.

“We did much better, by the way, in the election of 2020 than we did in 2016, just remember that,” Trump said. “Millions and millions of votes more.”

Then, Trump delivered the line that left Kimmel stunned.

“But they beat us by a whisker, they beat us just by a little whisker, he beat us from the basement,” said Trump, who usually falsely claims he won the election.

“OK, good,” Kimmel said. “Was that so hard? He’s finally at the acceptance stage of grief.”

Trump has said before that he lost by a whisker, only to walk it back later.

“I said that sarcastically,” Trump said when asked about it during the debate earlier this month. “That was said sarcastically.”
