Nominate for deletion ?

[edit]

This really looks like a candidate for NOTEVERYTHING deletion. It appears a blow-by-blow of one episode, not WP:GNG. The remark about Trump is obviously a distortion, and is well covered in more appropriate articles so meh. I'm not sure if the article would cover other episodes and if it would include sidebars about the episodes or what. For example, this one mentions Vice-President Mike Pence, would the episode in May mentioning the false claim he moved empty boxes also include a remark that it is false or criticism of that as false and then criticism of his response, e.g. Washington Examiner 'He was joking': Jimmy Kimmel addresses deceptive Pence clip after request for on-air apology ?

(In terms of details, I started the page based roughly on format of List_of_The_Daily_Show_episodes).
Distortion? Let's see what Kimmel said (starting at 1:07 in video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FXEVvcFFy0 ) "It's hard to believe, but this thing with Trump and the swallow your hand sanitizer comment is still causing trouble. …"
Made time to poke around internet
video of Trump via Reuters: Trump says "I see the disinfectant but knocks it out in minute, one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside or almost a cleaning because you see it gets in the lungs and does a tremendous number on the lungs..." (hand-typed from what i heard)
from vox.com (Vox (website)): quotes Trump "“And then I see disinfectant, where it knocks it [coronavirus] out in a minute — one minute — and is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside, or almost a cleaning. Because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs,"
So I didn't find footage of Trump directly suggesting ingesting disinfectant, but he did say "or almost a cleaning" (afterwards medical professionals warned people should not put disinfectant inside people including not swallowing/ingesting disinfectant.) --EarthFurst (talk) 00:59, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
