Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel mocked President Trump’s credibility with his own take on one of School House Rock’s classic civic lessons Tuesday.
Parodying the famous song “I’m Just a Bill,” Kimmel sought to make sense of the Trump administration’s conflicting statements, at a level a child can understand.
“We are now living in a world of alternative facts. The president makes statements every day that aren’t necessarily based in truth, which is frustrating to some people and confusing to others, especially young people,” said Kimmel.
In the fashion of “School House Rock,” a young boy meets a “Lie” sitting on the steps of the White House. The “Lie” then bursts forth into a chorus of, “I’m just a lie, yes I’m only a lie. I’m so untrue, I just want to cry.”
“I just popped out of the president’s brain, and the very idea of me is completely insane.”
As the young boy gets worried and eventually ill, the “Lie” tells him “Don’t worry, Trumpcare is gonna be great!”
