Jimmy Kimmel has set a new personal best, at least when it comes to Twitter.
This was because when hosting the 89th Academy Awards on Feb. 26, he sent a tweet directed at President Donald Trump, who was surprisingly silent during the show, despite the numerous comments made about him by various celebrities. He was actually at the Governor's Ball, which was being held the same night as the Oscars.
The tweet he sent out soon became Kimmel’s most retweeted tweet in under 15 minutes.

The tweet read “Hey @realDonaldTrump u up?”

Additionally, Kimmel further teased Trump by tweeting “@realDonaldTrump #Merylsayshi” alluding to the fact that Trump once called the actress “overrated.”

Now all we can do is wait and see how Trump reacts.
