Slovenians are not happy with Jimmy Kimmel mocking first lady Melania Trump’s accent.

USA Today reports that residents of Melania Trump’s hometown Sevnica, Slovenia are going after Kimmel for making fun of the First Lady.

“It’s very hard to speak English. Melania’s been in the U.S. so long and she still has some problems, but Jimmy Kimmel should come to Slovenia and see how hard it is to speak another language,” one woman told USA Today.

Another resident said, “It’s just not fair.”

“Melania is trying to help everyone. She is doing a really good job for children.”

Kimmel mocked Melania’s accent, kicking off a feud with Fox News’ Sean Hannity last week.

Hannity went after Kimmel for old skits from “The Man Show,” alleging that Kimmel made sexist and creepy skits toward women.
