Donald Trump was on the receiving end of several attacks by celebrities at the Emmy awards on Sunday night.

After host Jimmy Kimmel made a crude joke about his home life with wife Melania several award winners took their turn to criticize the Donald.

One comedy director compared him to Hitler while Julia Louis-Dreyfus apologized for the current political situation.

But it was host Jimmy Kimmel led the way.

During his opening monologue Kimmel, asked: 'If it wasn’t for television, would Donald Trump be running for president?'

'No, he would be at home right now quietly rubbing up against his wife Malaria while she pretends to be asleep.'

Kimmel said producer and president of MGM Television and Digital Group Mark Burnett (pictured), who created 'The Apprentice' was inadvertently responsible for the Trump candidacy

He then turned his sights to Mark Burnett, who created the hit reality series 'The Apprentice', which gave Trump his infamous 'you're fired' catch phrase and a mainstream profile.

' Thanks to Mark Burnett, we don't have to watch reality shows anymore because we're living in one,' Kimmel said.

He then joked that if Trump wins Burnett will be the first person over 'the wall'.

Jill Soloway, who created the show 'Transparent', likened Trump to Hitler while backstage.

While standing with the show's star Jeffrey Tambor, who won best actor, Soloway called the Republican nominee a 'monster'.

'Trump needs to be called out every chance we get as one of the most dangerous monsters to ever approach our lifetimes.

'He’s a complete dangerous monster. Any moment I have to call out Donald Trump as the inheritor to Hitler, I will,' Soloway said

'Veep' star Julia Louis-Dreyfus said she was sorry for the current political climate, alluding to the fact her political satire show might have caused the Trump campaign

'He’s a complete dangerous monster. Any moment I have to call out Donald Trump as the inheritor to Hitler, I will,' she said.

The show, which focuses on a transgender woman played by Tambor, recently delved into Nazi Germany and what it called 'other-izing' of groups of people.

It explained that's how Hitler rose to power and on Sunday Soloway said Trump is doing the same.

'Right now, Donald Trump is doing the same thing. He is 'other-izing' people. He calls people pigs if they don’t look like beauty pageant contestants.

'He blames Muslims and Mexicans for our problems. He makes fun of disabled people. This is 'other-izing' with a capital O.

It has been used in our history before to start and win wars,' Soloway said.

Tambor agreed, adding: 'Ditto.'

Earlier, 'Veep' star Julia Louis-Dreyfus said she was sorry for the current political climate, alluding to the fact her political satire show might have caused the Trump campaign.

While accepting her fifth consecutive Emmy win for best actress in a comedy for 'Veep!', Louis-Dreyfus said her HBO show has 'torn down the wall between comedy and politics.'

She also said she would 'rebuild that wall and make Mexico pay for it'.

Kate McKinnon thanked Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, who she often plays on Saturday Night Live

'Our show started out as political satire but now it feels like a sober documentary,' she said.

During an acceptance speech for best supporting actress in a comedy series for her work on 'Saturday Night Live', Kate McKinnon thanked Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.

McKinnon often portrays Clinton on SNL.

When Courtney B. Vance was announced as the winner for actor in a limited series or a movie for his role as Johnny Cochran in 'The People v. O.J. Simpson', he closed his acceptance speech by saying: 'Obama out, Hillary in.'

Aziz Ansari, who won the Emmy for outstanding writing for a comedy series for Master of None, made jokes about all the people of color getting 'kicked out' after claiming he was voting for Trump.

'Look, it's an election year and after careful consideration I decided I'm going with Trump, which is why I'm also recommending we get rid of all all Muslim and Hispanic nominees from the ceremony immediately.

'Wow, this would be so much easier if we were at the Oscars.

'Mom, dad, I know I just thanked you but you need to be escorted out right now. I'm so sorry

'America Ferrera, nice try chaning your name to "America". You're not fooling anybody. You're out,' Ansari said.

Earlier in the year, Ansari wrote a scathing letter in the New York Times calling Trump 'scary' to him and his family.
