On November 24, after the Grammys announced their 2021 nominations, The Killers responded to their new album's snub.

How?

They decided to tap into current affairs by making fun of Donald Trump's refusal to concede the 2020 election in the best way possible:

an unhinged Twitter tirade.


The Killers' sixth album, Imploding the Mirage, has been well-reviewed by critics, but that sadly didn't result in a Grammy nomination.


Twitter found The Killers dig at Donald Trump absolutely hilarious.


Many Twitter users quickly played along with the joke.



The Killers have spoken out against Donald Trump and the danger of his administration in the past, even going so far as to release a protest song, "Land of the Free."



THE KILLERS SHOULD HAVE BEEN NOMINATED FOR EVERY GRAMMY—THE VOTES WERE CLEARLY RIGGED!


Has this always been the fate of Donald Trump—to spend his last days in office getting dunked on by The Killers via Twitter?

Maybe, but even if it isn't, it's certainly an entertaining turn of events.

Jimmy Kimmel And Stephen Colbert Unload On Trump In Rare Crossover Event As Guests On Each Other's Shows

Late-night hosts Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert were each other's guests in a special crossover event on Tuesday and took the opportunity to call out "son of a b*tch" President Donald Trump, who has used his influence in attempts to silence them for criticizing him and his MAGA movement on the air.

Last week, ABC announced it would end its suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live! just a week after Trump pushed to get host Jimmy Kimmel off the air following comments Kimmel made about the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk. ABC had had internal discussions with Disney, which saw a wave of subscriber cancellations in the wake of Kimmel's suspension.

Ted Cruz Clashes With 'Crazy' MTG Over Her Cryptic Post Alluding That 'The Jews' Are Trying To Kill Her

Texas MAGA Republican Senator Rafael "Ted" Cruz raised eyebrows when he attacked Georgia QAnon/MAGA Republican Representative and conspiracy theorist Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG) for being antisemitic.

MTG has promoted some antisemitic conspiracy theories in the past, like Jewish space lasers that control the weather or start wildfires, but this time people are calling Cruz out for reaching in an attempt to discredit the Georgia Republican and protect Trump from what's being concealed in FBI, Department of Justice, and court records relating to the indictment of Jeffrey Epstein on charges of sex trafficking of minors.
