LOS ANGELES − Jimmy Kimmel made it clear there's one person responsible for his Critics Choice Award for best talk show host: President Donald J. Trump.

Kimmel, 58, just had a little trouble with the president's name during his acceptance speech on behalf of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on Sunday, Jan. 4.

"I want to thank our president, Donald Jennifer Trump, without whom we'd be going home empty-handed tonight," said Kimmel. "So thank you, Mr. President, for all the many ridiculous things you do each and every day."

Kimmel has made President Trump and his administration the butt of many jokes, which led to the late-night comic getting pulled off the air by ABC's parent company.
