>> dicky: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight -- senator bernie sanders! tom hiddleston! and music from granger smith! with cleto and the cletones!

kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: i'm jimmy. i'm the host of the show. thank you for watching. thank you for coming. [ cheers and applause ] looking around. i don't know how this group got through the secret service, but i'm glad you did. we have a senator. maybe even future president of the united states in the house. bernie sanders is here. [ cheers and applause ] bernie sanders has ignited a lot of passion, primarily among young people. and the incredible thing is he did it without posting even a single nude selfie. [ laughter ] bernie can get very fired up.

but remember, if it seems like he's yelling at you, it's because he is yelling at you and you deserve it. [ laughter ] my favorite part about watching bernie in debates is how he's always got his finger up like he's trying to flag down a waiter to get the check. [ laughter ] bernie was on the ballot in three states today. there was a primary in arizona and caucuses in idaho and utah. donald trump was behind in the polls in utah. utah is not particularly friendly territory for donald trump because most of the voters there are sober. [ laughter ] it's a largely mormon state. but according to -- according to a new poll, 60% of republicans say they're embarrassed by their candidates in the primary so far. that's -- that means almost 40% of republicans aren't embarrassed by their candidates in the primary so far. [ laughter ] how can that be? when he's asked why he thinks so many of his fellow republicans are embarrassed, donald trump said, what's embarrassed?

some people who do not support donald trump are taking a more active role in expressing his displeasure like this driver in wilmington, north carolina.] usually the voters who veer so donald trump. so obviously, jeb is still a little bit upset. [ laughter ] donald trump sat down for an interview with cnn yesterday where he took on a wide range of topics including hillary ton. >> she is -- doesn't know me. she doesn't know my policy. she doesn't know what i'm going to be doing. and she certainly doesn't know what i'm going to be saying today at 5:00. of you. [ laughter ] right? no way he knows what he's going to be saying at this, for all the negative stuff donald trump puts out there, for all the insults and threats and general

in fact, he spread so much love we boiled it down and pieced it together to donald trump love bomb. >> i love this country. >> i love the country. >> i love the old days. >> i love free trade. >> i love my company. >> i love building buildings. >> i love what i'm hopping around. >> i love the way they twist and turn. >> i love nascar. >> i love you potatoes. >> we love people that -- >> i love that sign. >> i love to bring i love helping people. >> i love howie kurtz. >> i love sheriff joe. >> i love my father. >> i love my kids. >> i love these people. >> i love tough people. >> i love my protesters. >> i love this guy over here. >> i lovove me. >> and i love them. >> i love my life. >> i love the military. >> i love great generals. >> i love the vets. >> i love the wounded warriors. >> i love china. china's mexico. >> i love the mexican people. >> i love the hispanics. >> i love the saudis. >> i love israel. >> i love the evangelicals. >> i love the mormons. >> i love south carolina. >> i love iowa. >> i love i love you ohio. >> i love idaho. >> i love nevada.

>> i love new hampshire. >> i love florida. >> i love georgia. >> i do love virginia. >> i love you. >> i love you. >> i love you. >> i love you. >> i love you. >> i love you. >> i love you all. >> i love you. >> i love you! i lovethe poorly educated. [ cheers and applause ] you have to learn is to love yourself, and clearly he does. meanwhile, one of donald trump's most high-profile supporters, former alaska governor sarah palin, is working on a new gig. sarahut today, is planning to host a new reality courtroom show. she would be the judge. the show doesn't have a title yet but they're thi "terrible idea." [ laughter ] unlike judge joe brown or judge judy, sarah palin degree. but she's never been one to let a lack of qualification for a job slow her down. [ laughter ] shouldn't she have to wait for the next president to appoint a

it's a strange thing. people wanting to run the country are now hosting reality shows and people hosting reality shows now want to run the country. we live in a very confusing ughter ] sometimes i'll forget to put my shoes on. [ applause ] meanwhile, speaking of reality tv judges, last night on abc we had the premiere ofhe stars," a new season. the lowest score of the night went to geraldo rivera, which was a shocker. [ laughter ] i thought he'd be great. but one of the high scores went to a model namednile demarco, who happens to be deaf. he wouldn't hear that screaming.only knts he can't he hear the music-e can't hear the sound vibrations which is how a lot of deaf people listen to music. he has to follow along and do what his partner does. which is incredible on its own ble when you factor in his very enthusiastic sign language interpreter. >> at first i was like hot!

and then i was like, wow.in the pocket. you didn't just have great rhythm. you were in the pocket of the rhythm. you brought the rhythm -- >> jimmy: really embellishing. next season that interpreter is going to be one of the dancing stars. already more famous than half the other people on the show. it's interesting how famous people react when their fame starts to wane. you've got "dancing with the stars." when they get older will do these ads you see on the cable news channels. i saw cindy williams, who played shirley on "laverne & shirley"e kind of home nursing service. which is just weird. chuck woolery does the ads for the willow curve. william devane i think tells people to buy gold.h cable news in the daytime. [ laughter ] i was wondering what i'm going to do when i become a very handsome old man with a lot of plastic surgery. and so i traveled to the watch television. that turns out that's what people still do.

and i happened upon this commercial which was able to capture on dvr. here it is. future me with a pitch for >> the following is a paid advertisement for first nationwide providence. >> it's not like the old things just seem to move a little bit faster these days. we get older and they get younger. hi. i'm disgraced former talk show host jimmy er ] and if you're looking for peace of mind, it's time to call first nationwide providence. first nationwide providence is for people like you andhey do? i have absolutely no idea. [ laughter ] but i don't need to. and neither do you. should you give them your money?ch? all of it probably. what will they do with it in there's no way of knowing. but the name sounds important

first nationwide providence. it's a low price to pay for whatever the hell it is they do. >>idence is a pyramid scheme. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: we're going to be rich. we have to take a break. when we come back, my pal guillermo and i help their homework. so stick around. we'll be right back. chrnz chrpz [ cheers and applause ] whatcha gonna do when you get outta here? i'm gonna have some fun! what do you consider fun? fun, natural fun! ow! i'm in heaven nd, my laughing boyfriend. steppin' in a rhythm to a funky flow. think when your feet just go? whatcha gonna do when you get outta here? i'm gonna have some fun! fun, natural fun! baby! ody aches?

dismiss a lawsuit that colorado's pot legalization unconstitutional. they said they will not hear the case, which means pot will continue to be sold in surprise me. the supreme court, they're a bunch of stoners. [ laughter ] who else wears a robe in the middle of the day? [ laughter ] clarence thomas is so high he's only spoken once in like ten ughter ] the lawsuit was -- actually, the lawsuit was filed by the other states. oklahoma and nebraska filed the esting to me because i had no idea that oklahoma and nebraska were a [ laughter ] it's like your littleet you in trouble for not taking him to the party. but they claim that their marijuana is making its way across the border from colorado into theirlet's put the map up. look at this. colorado barely, barely has a border with oklahoma. it's like your neighbor two blocks away complai party that's too loud. and you'd think nebraska would support marijuana. they grow corn.

it's the main ingredient in doritos, for god's sake. people don't think. [ cheers and applause ] anyone who knows me knows that i am very passionate when it comes to learning. in fact, in addition to my hosting duties on this show i have co-hosted an educational program on a local access channel. how long have we been doing this now? >> for 40 years. >> jimmy: 40 years we've been doing this.rab your number 2 pencils. 40 years?

[ applause ] tomorrow night kristen bell, jon bernthal and music from locash. and on thursday, hillary clinton, peter krause, and fifth harmonyso please join us. [ cheers and applause ] you know, it used to be when

somebody talked about feeling the burn they needed a shot oft our first guest has turned it into a rallying cry for millions of young americans. he has emerged from vermont to run for president of the united states. please welcome senator bernie sanders. lause ] very good to have you here. >> great to be with you. [ cheers and applause ]immy: is it -- have you gotten acclimated to coming to l.a. where a year ago nobody knew who you were and now teenagers and young people are cheering you? >> it is a bit of a shock. but it's a good shock. i'll take it. >> jimmy: you have secret service protection. >> yeah. >> jimmy: and all the top candidates do. tonight you were out walking

and you did that when we were in brooklyn together last time too. >> exactly. i love doing that. that's what i've done my whole life. >> jimmy: does the when you do that? >> yes. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: they don't like that. >> but you know, it brings you into the real world and kind ofsolation. there are a lot of beautiful people out there. it's just nice to say hello. >> jimmy: i have to admit to you, when you were on our show in october when we were in brooklyn, i thought, this is a very smart guy. he has some very interesting ideas. he his country. but there's no way we'll still be seeing him in march. and yet here you are.] i mean, i don't -- it might be too simple a question to say are you surprised? but are you surprised by this? >> yes and no. message that we had, that there's something wrong with the middle class in this country, it's re working longer hours for low wages. we have so much poverty and

almost all new income and wealth is going to the top 1%.t was a message that would resonate. the other message, it spreads from conservatives to progressives. people are really angry about a corrupt campaign finance system that allows very, very to spend unlimited sums of money to buy elections. people don't think that's what democracy of this country is supposed to be about. [ applause ]ously, there was a terror attack in brussels today, which was a horrible thing. and in times when we are under attack or our allies are under that americans gravitate toward the candidate who talks the toughest. in this case i think donald trump after the attacks in popularity shot up. why do you think that is? >> i think people get afraid. and for good reasons. isis is a disgusting, barbaric 've seen what they've done in paris, what they've done in brussels. people are afraid of an attack

but i think what we have to understand is we're not going toution of the united states of america in order to effectively destroy isis. we can do that. issue is to destroy isis in coalition with muslim nations on the ground, with the support of the united states and other major powers. do that. we are making some progress. we have much more to do. and secondly, of course, we have to protect our own nation. and that means sharing. making sure that we stop young people from becoming terrorists through social media, et cetera. and we're working on that. but at the end of the day we cannot allow the world to use these incidents to attack all of the muslim people in the world. that is unfair -- [ cheers and applause ]ow, to imply that because somebody is a muslim they're a

equally so when he talks about mexicans coming over the borders as rapists or is not what this country is about. we don't need in my view a candidate for president hurling these types of ill say that when i think about donald trump and i think about you i can imagine him dropping a bomb on a house that might contain innocent cannot imagine you doing that. would you be prepared to do that or -- >> well, i hope nobody ever drops on a bomb containing immy: but of course when you're fighting terrorism that happens. >> it does. and obviously, if i were elected president of the united states i would use the military forces of our country in an effective andate way. and that's what a president does. so if the question is -- you know, i think as somebody who voted against the war in iraqve to be careful about how we use military force because sometimes we don't see

the unintended consequence. you know, saddam hussein was but i kind of had the feeling, get rid of him you create a political vacuum, bad things happen. but there are times when you do have to use force, and i prepared to do that. >> jimmy: guillermo, you wanted to clap? guillermo was about to clap. there you go. you had three contests tonight -- arizona, idaho, and utah.yeah. >> jimmy: do you feel like -- we don't know what the results are at this time. do you feel optimistic about winning any of those states? >> oh, yeah. i do. you never can tell. into speculation. but we were in salt lake city. and remember, utah's one of the more conservative states in the country. we had 14,000 people out at a city. there was a poll that just came out in utah. for the first time in 50 years -- this is a state that almost never votes for a democratic candidate for president. we were beating donald trump by utah. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: that's crazy.

up to date on the electiont polls, et cetera? do you watch those on the cable news just like the rest of us? >> sometimes depending on the state there are exit polls. we often have access to thembody else, if it's a close election we're watching the television at 1:00 in the morning. >> jimmy: do you have cable at home? >> yeah. >> jimmy: i don'tivolously watching television. i imagine you're a relatively serious guy. if you are elected president, will we still have like the easter egg roll? would there be -- would the turkey on thanksgiving? >> only if all of the children are very, very serious about that roll. >> jimmy: i see. [ laughter ] >> no frivolity in my it's all work, no pleasure. [ applause ] >> jimmy: you and mrs. clinton, hillary clinton, do you ever speak privately? do you have together or phone calls? >> yeah, occasionally. >> jimmy: is that to congratulate each other on winning a state or do you

sometimes call and say hey -- >> we've often -- we'vetimes and before the debate we can sit down and chat. >> jimmy: her unfavorability numbers, they say they're historic, and this is a cnn/"new york times" poll. same with donald trump.lity is higher. do you feel like you're contributing to that? >> no, i don't. i think what i have tried to do in this campaign is focus os impacting the american people. and that is something that sometimes is very hard to do through the media because the media is not necessarily interested. >> jimmy: we like the fun stuff. >> that's right. or the dramatic stuff.ht. but we have been very careful about not attacking secretary clinton in any kind of a personal way. other people do that.ocus on the issues. but i think our success is that we are touching a nerve with the amert is people's understanding that we have to act boldly in climate change -- give you another example. we are talking now about making

tuition-free andent debt. [ cheers and applause ] and everybody knows, you know, we tell the young people, go out and get an education. then they end up with 30, 50, dollars in debt. we need the best engt educated workforce in the wormd. why are we punishing kids for doing what they should be doing? tell you the other thing. there's a big difference between the secretary and myself. is we raise money in a very unusual way for we get it from the middle class and working class of this country. we've gotten over 5 million individual contributions. 27 bucks apiece. [ laughter ] if anyone's watching. secretary -- and i don't have a super pac. secretary clinton has a super pac. gets a lot of money from wall street and otherw you don't have a super pac. and i just want to give you something because i know you -- but i did get you a fanny pack. ] [ applause ]

[ laughter ] >> actually, i like that movie very much but i don't think i was watching it.ion feels like it's been going on forever. does feel that way to you? >> it has been going on forever. >> jimmy: there's still a long way to go. >> yeah, it is. i'm not quite sure that this is the best way to elect af the united states, to be honest with you. i think it is a process which is neverending. and i think we've got to think >> jimmy: there's a big difference between running for president and being president. >> absolutely. absolutely. and i think being president is having great people aroundst people, most knowledgeable people, and dealing with the important issues facing our country.

it's not necessarily, you know, ay seven days a week running around the country. >> jimmy: it is interesting in this day of modern technology that you still have to go, you have to shake people's hands. jimmy: you have to call them on the telephone. you were doing that today i heard? >> to me what has been most gratifying is we have a lot of rallies around the state. that's kind of a feature of ou i think we're going to be in san diego tonight probably at 15,000, 20,000 people out. and i enjoy that. it's really an opportunity for people to come together.w in people's eyes, the hope that people have that we can improve this country and make it what i think all of us know we can. so that's very ave you ever met donald trump? >> no. and i didn't go to his wedding either. let me be very clear about that. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: that's a thing. donald trump --at donald trump's wedding. i think i asked her about this the last time she was here. it makes it feel like the whole thing is professional wrestling. it makes ite got the bad guy and the good guy and

behind the scenes everybody's watching each other shower.

[ laughter ] >> we are very re very blessed. we have seven beautiful, beautiful grandchildren, and they're a delight. we try to spend as much time as we can. >> jimmy: we talked about the income inequality and the top 1% having athe money. do you think there should be a limit on how much an american can make? >> i would approach it another n we have cities like flint, michigan where children -- and i've got to tell you. i was there.

listening to parents who tell me about what happens to the cognitive capabilities of their children when they are poisoned by lead in the painful. and it's not just flint, michigan all over this country. we have deteriorating schools. we have people who are not getting the health care they need. not getting the -- notthe jobs, unemployment for kids off the charts. and yet you have a handful of people, you have the 20 wealthiest people in this country owning more wealth than the bottom half ofillion people, jimmy. and i don't think that's what america should be about. and i do believe we should raise taxes on upper-income people and large profitablethat is my view. >> jimmy: you're not a republican, i guess. here's an interesting thing. because most republicans are not wealthy people. but they also kind of go with that principle. >> that's the corruption of the campaign finance system. if you're going to run for president you need many hundreds

let me give you one the senate environmental committee. i've talked to scientists all over the world. climate change is real. it's caused by human activity. and yet you don't have one republican candidate prepared to say that. >> jimmy: isn'tt is crazy. but it's more than crazy. the reason for it is the day they say, it they come on your show and say it, their campaign funding is cut by the koch brothers and the fossilstry. >> jimmy: didn't lindsey graham, doesn't he -- >> maybe vaguely. but look, we've got an international crisis with climate change, and what the scientists tell us, if we don'tou're going to see more droughts, more floods, rising sea levels. we've got a crisis. and these guys hope -- trump, for example, thinks it's a hoax createdll people. all right? [ laughter ] but the truth is if they stood up and did the right thing the koch brothers and the big moneyy people would not fund their campaigns. that is how corrupt our current campaign finance system is. >> jimmy: i know you have to getu've got a big rally there.

[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: is that just talk or -- >> honestly, i play spy in "the night manager." so people i think have made the link. but honestly i feel like -- >> jimmy: you're experienced. you have spy want to be james bond? >> in -- i mean, as somebody who grew up with sean connery and roger moore,there's a part of me that goes, really? are you kidding? but i feel like who's going to be the next james bond is -- it's one of therite pub conversations. it's up there with like who's going to win "x factor" and when
