“There was one time, right around the beginning of this whole Trump thing… maybe not quite [eight years ago],” Kimmel said when asked if ABC ever expressed concern to him about attacking Trump. “I said listen, I get it, you’re right. I have lost half of my fanbase, maybe more. Ten years ago, among Republicans I was the most popular talk show. At least according to the research they did.”

Kimmel continued, “I get it if [blocking Trump jokes is] what they want to do. I said, ‘If that’s what you want to do I don’t begrudge you for it, but I’m not going to do that. If you want someone else to host the show, that’s fine with me. I’m just not going to do it like that.’”

“I was serious. I couldn’t live with myself [if I didn’t grill Trump],” Kimmel adds

Sorry, I would not care to speculate.
Too many possibilities.
You are going to have to spell it out for me.

Unsurprisingly, the "red wave" was stymied by single issue voters and never-Trumpers. It's almost as though building a platform around Trump endorsements and anti-abortion bills was a poor choice in swaying moderate voters...
