Jimmy Kimmel on Monday torched President Donald Trump for talking tough on China, only to flip-flop once in office.

Last week, Trump held an elaborate state dinner in honor of Chinese leader Xi Jinping, even though he has repeatedly, and for years, said he’d never do such a thing.

“I wouldn’t give him a state dinner like we do for China and all these other people that rip us off where we give them these big state dinners,” Trump said when he was a candidate in 2016 in a clip that Kimmel aired on Monday night. “We give them state dinners like you’ve never seen. We shouldn’t have dinners at all.”

Trump also claimed that such dinners cost a fortune, and he wouldn’t host them.

“See if you can guess what the orange chicken did over the weekend,” Kimmel said. “Well, that’s right. He hosted a lavish state dinner for the president of China.”
