The 96th Academy Awards may have taken place seven months ago, but you wouldn’t know it based on former President Donald Trump’s insistence on prodding host Jimmy Kimmel about his performance and the ceremony’s ratings.

The Republican presidential nominee inexplicably posted a throwback clip of Kimmel on the Dolby Theatre stage to his personal Truth Social account on Sunday.

“Remember this? What a dope! His wife and agent begged him not to do it, and just before Best Picture Award, yet. He suffers from Trump Derangement Syndrome,” Trump wrote. “All of this on top of really bad ratings for Jimmy, just like failing Bill Maher and the two clowns on CBS and NBC! No talent equals bad ratings!”

Kimmel, never one to take Trump lying down, posted to his Instagram grid in response just a few hours later.
