Jimmy Kimmel Live! fill-in Anthony Anderson insulted President Donald Trump once more on his final day of guest-hosting the late-night show on Thursday, August 13.

During Anderson's opening monologue, the 55-year-old comedian-turned-actor quipped that Trump was a "greedy motherf----r" before he mocked the 80-year-old president's recent Truth Social post. Anderson said, "Speaking of greedy motherf-----rs, Donald Trump. Yesterday, he went on Truth Social and said the U.S. has 'total control of the Strait of Hormuz,'" sharing a screenshot from Trump's actual Truth Social post, in which he directly referenced the show.

Anderson then explained that Trump's Truth Social post "may not be true because today Iran said the Strait of Hormuz is actually 'under their control.' And the 'baseless claims made by the United States are nothing more than lies and falsehoods.'"

The temporary Jimmy Kimmel Live! host quipped that he didn't "know who to believe" when it came to the "authoritarian psychopath," referring to Trump or "the Iranians. "

Throughout the week, Anderson has kept up with the culture of Jimmy Kimmel Live! by making sure to blast Trump during the opening monologue in some capacity. When Anderson kicked off the show on Monday, August 10, he quipped about Trump's Patriotic Games, which he branded the "MAGA Olympics," amid the Jimmy Kimmel Live! opening.

"In sports news, the World Cup may be over. But the MAGA Olympics are officially underway. Yes, it's called the Patriot Games, and it was created by the most athletic man in America," Anderson teased.

Producers then aired a clip of the commander-in-chief detailing from the Oval Office at the White House what the sports event would entail.

"In the fall, we will host the first-ever Patriot Games, an unprecedented four-day athletic event featuring the greatest high school athletes, one young man and one young woman from each state and territory," Trump said in the shared video.

He added, "But I promise there will be no men playing in women's sport. You're not going to see that. You'll see everything but that."

Following the end of the clip, producers panned back to Anderson, who reacted, "Yes there will be no men in women's sports, and only one Donald Trump in the women's locker room."

Anderson's comment appeared to be a nod to Trump's accusation of barging into the dressing rooms of Miss USA contestants when they were changing during the time he owned the beauty pageants.
