The former GOP Rep. broke down exactly what Trump's body odor smells like during an interview on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live'—and it's truly disgusting.

Former Illinois Republican Representative Adam Kinzinger revealed that former President Donald Trump's body odor is so "pungent" that it's impossible not to notice.

This prompted Kimmel to ask the following question:


“What did it smell like specifically?”

Kinzinger replied:

“So, if you take, like, armpits, ketchup, makeup and a little butt, it’s probably like that, all mixed up.”

When Kimmel joked that this information comprises the "Trump formula," Kinzinger said:

“A little bit of a pungent odor, I would say, You definitely wouldn’t want to bottle it up and wear Trump cologne. ... I think people were a little scared to talk about it but it was obvious. Maybe it wasn't permanent or all the time but it's there." ...
“He’d invite all of us into the Oval Office all the time, and it’s hard to avoid that."

You can hear what Kinzinger said in the video below.

The disgust was real.


This isn't the first time Kinzinger has drawn attention to the way Trump smells.

Last year, Trump's team lashed out after Kinzinger said that the former president has an "odor" that is "something to behold."

Kinzinger said he is "genuinely surprised" that people close to Trump have not "talked about the odor" and advised anyone who might find themselves in Trump's orbit to "Wear a mask if you can."

Kinzinger is not the only prominent figure to bring up Trump's signature odor.

During her appearance on The Mary Trump Show podcast in November, comedian Kathy Griffin left Trump’s niece, Mary Trump, taken aback after Griffin delved into her encounters with Trump during her guest appearances on his reality show The Apprentice, pinpointing what she described as a distinctive scent emanating from the former president.

She vividly recalled a scent reminiscent of body odor coupled with "scented makeup products," noting the detectable aroma of hair products even outdoors.

Mary Trump grimaced at the revelation though she noted that if someone made a candle with that smell, it "would fly off the shelves" in time for Christmas.

Gavin Newsom Rips Pete Hegseth For Suggesting Press Is Only Reporting On U.S. Casualties To Make Trump Look Bad

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized by California Governor Gavin Newsom after Hegseth accused the press of only reporting on the negative effects of President Donald Trump's attacks on Iran.

Trump has said that the U.S. military was "knocking the crap out of Iran" but the "big wave" of attacks is still yet to come, and has not ruled out putting boots on the ground, saying the war is progressing "way ahead of schedule." Trump has urged Iranians to revolt, even as the regime reshuffles leadership following the death of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and some of his associates.

Elmo Just Asked His Followers 'Where Have You Been?'—And Zohran Mamdani Had The Purest Response

Elmo, the furry red childlike monster from Sesame Street designed by Caroly Wilcox, began his life as a generic "baby monster" background filler in the 1979-1980 season of the long-running children's television program.

Originally having a gruff voice supplied by various puppeteers, Elmo found his falsetto-voiced, loving persona when Kevin Clash took over in 1985. Elmo was transformed into a three-and-a-half-year-old character designed to connect with the show's audience of preschoolers.
