It all began when Senator Chuck Schumer said that Trump threw a temper tantrum after a meeting with him and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. In response, [Trump called Schumer “Cryin Chuck”](http://time.com/5498428/donald-trump-pelosi-schumer-meeting/) and said the reports were inaccurate. “I don’t have temper tantrums, I really don’t,” he said. His defensive response seemed to practically invite the jokes from late night television, and Jimmy Kimmel wholeheartedly enjoyed tearing in. “Nothing says ‘I didn’t throw a temper tantrum,’ like throwing another temper tantrum,” Kimmel cracked before positing that “Donald Trump puts the ‘tan’ in temper tantrum.” That wasn’t the only material Kimmel had a field day with: while addressing his threat to declare a national emergency if he doesn’t get money for his wall, Trump talked about things being “peachy dory,” a seeming amalgamation of “hunky dory” and “peachy keen.” Kimmel, for his part, got a movie pitch out of Trump’s new phrase. “Peachy Dory, of course, is the new movie from Pixar,” Kimmel joked as a graphic of Dory with a Trump combover and a caption that read “From the Creator of _The Lyin’ King_.” Watch the full clip below. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5500354/trump-speech-peachy-dory-jimmy-kimmel/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5500354/trump-speech-peachy-dory-jimmy-kimmel/"},"headline":"Trump Said He Didn't Have Temper Tantrums and Jimmy Kimmel Took It From There","datePublished":"2019-01-11T16:31:31.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:56:54.705Z","description":"All peachy dory over here","url":"https://time.com/5500354/trump-speech-peachy-dory-jimmy-kimmel/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Late Night"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt4d53af3dce7d77e5/6989431986f68e478b6eb237/jimmy-kimmel-donald-trump-peachy-dory.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt4d53af3dce7d77e5/6989431986f68e478b6eb237/jimmy-kimmel-donald-trump-peachy-dory.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"ABC's \"Jimmy Kimmel Live\" - Season 16","caption":"ABC's \"Jimmy Kimmel Live\" - Season 16","creditText":"Randy Holmes—ABC via Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5500354/trump-speech-peachy-dory-jimmy-kimmel/","name":"Trump Said He Didn't Have Temper Tantrums and Jimmy Kimmel Took It From There"}}]}] ```
