Jimmy Kimmel on Trump's vacations: 'This is the guy we need United to drag off the plane'

Travel's in the news this week, as United's PR nightmare bumps up against news that President Trump's vacation spending is on track to surpass that of his predecessor. So naturally, Jimmy Kimmel used his Tuesday night monologue to bring those two stories together:

"President Trump has been flying a lot lately-- privately, of course. Donald Trump is on pace to spend more on travel in his first year as president, than President Obama spent all eight years in office, combined. The president's trips to Florida every weekend have already cost more than $20,000,000 of tax-payer money. See, this is the guy we need United to drag off the plane."

Drag him, Jimmy.
