Jimmy Kimmel addressed the ceasefire between the United States and Iran during his Tuesday night monologue and pointed out a recurring pattern with President Donald Trump’s negotiating tactics.

“The President decided not to drop it for at least another two weeks,” the host said during “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” “He announced that at the request of Pakistan, which has been facilitating negotiations, he was giving Iran two weeks to live. This is how it goes every single time. Trump says something insane. He says, ‘I’m going to kill everybody tomorrow at 5 p.m.,’ we all freak out, then he’s like, ‘You know what, actually, I’ll kill everyone in two weeks.’ Then we relax, then he forgets he ever said it in the first place. He has the memory and skin color of a goldfish.”
