"... Bill [Mayer] wanted to come back. The Gofer called me multiple times, saying how much Bill loves me, that he respects me more than anybody, and wants to come back for a second meeting... Also, I wanted to tell Bill that he’s a major POTHEAD. He’s got to stop, it’s very bad for his health. He looked like hell this time. Bill was drunk and had alcohol in his hand as he walked through the White House. Stephen A. Smith and Kid Rock came along with him.... After the first dinner, Bill Maher was friendly, I guess, everyone walked away pleased. He gave me a good first show, with lots of Laughing Machine laughter, which is a real term, but it is what it is, and then reverted back to his former self, and his old ways. I understand that. He’s doing his thing. I never took it very personally. I would always mock his Low Ratings, whenever I heard. He’s not a nice guy, and what he spouts isn’t what he believes. He has to cater to his base, which is mostly composed of Losers, and people who don’t like working...."
A snippet from Trump's long Truth Social post about his second dinner with Bill Maher, which he's writing only after Bill Maher talked about the dinner on his show last Friday.
Here's a little of what Bill said that irked Trump so much:
And here's some coverage of the dinner that preceded Bill Maher's show. It's from "The View," but it include clips of Trump saying everything was great:
…Ann writes ‘only after’ to invite readers to discount what Trump is writing. It’s silly and confounding how his detractors must parse and nitpick everything he says. Wtf do his detractors care when don’t approve of his existence…and the impossible standards- unelectable because he’s not a politician then shocked when he acts political. News flash- your assessment is wrong. Always has been…
Trump is funnier than bill maher. I loved Trump bringing up "the laugh machine" on Maher's show. That's howls with laughter and applause at Bill Maher's every word. But I don't think its a machine. The producers just hand pick the audience.
I haven't listened to the clips yet, but I'm assuming that Trump says nice things until the other person doesn't, then he gets insulting. This is his standard way of operating.
Trump also calls him a drunk and a pothead. Which is hilarious and writes:
"Also, turn your Laugh Machine off, it’s a joke when they laugh uncontrollably, even when you say nothing funny, and I’m going to have the Republicans not cover you anymore, because they try to talk about you as a guy who is transformative. You’re not transformative, you’re a Loser!"
Bill's going to have stiff competition with Nicki Minaj for presidential attention now. Trump is slummin' it, maybe for the mid-terms, but it does beg the question of who's more low-brow, Maher or Minaj?
…when you go to those live audience tapings there’s a doosh that comes out to warm up the crowd and give some instruction, one being react like crazy even if the jokes aren’t funny. The couple of times I’ve been to shows there have even been some edits where the producers sub in a bigger audience reaction or change the timing of it. It’s all kind of fake…
I feel as if this election is sort of Mad Hatter's tea party. Trump is trying to talk about policies - ending open borders; ending Iran's drive to get the bomb to use on us; ending trillions in theft from HHS; no illegals voting; falling murder rate. And all these crazy characters sit about eating, arguing and changing positions. "Look at France to see what happens with the Red/Green alliance." "Move down, clean cups, clean cups." "A thing is what I say it is." Meanwhile, the dormouse sleeps and sleeps and cannot be kept awake. And that's those Dems, who think they're being true to Roosevelt. They open their eyes and grab some Doritos and close them again. That story ends with a trial by a pack of cards and an awakening. May we be as lucky.
Maher is a typical committed leftist, always has been his entire career. He is different in that occasionally he notices that the policies he has dedicated his life to are crap, and produce terrible results, in spite of the pretty words used to describe their intent. I have yet to see or hear a leftist who stands up for the policies of the left. Like on this blog, they just blame their own miserable existence on Trump, or the Jews.
The 2 men had dinner together because both wanted it, they wanted it because of what was in it for them, and they made their after-dinner statements to further serve their interests. That's ordinary human behavior that doesn't impress me one way or the other. I give them both a C+. Neither deserves all the clout they have, but I'm not seeing a better class of human being stepping up to replace them. I don't get my hopes up. The whole fuss is very bland.
That even Bill Maher can't bring himself to say that Joe Biden was a puppet, a vegetable, and a loyal mobster -who ran an Illegal - Illegal entrant program/Dem fascist super-plan - is rather pathetic.
RE: "the laugh machine". I confess to listenin to "Real Time" every week, and that's the one thing that really irks me about it. The "studio audience" is stirred up to a whooping braying frenzy at every morsel that falls from Maher's tongue. It is really annoying.
Otherwise, I am entertained and amused about all this dinner talk.
"Neither deserves all the clout they have"- One of the men she is talking about here is Donald Trump. Good lord, this may be the most clueless thing Althouse has ever written. The most consequential and heroic American president since Abraham Lincoln, the man who singlehandedly successfully defended himself against the American deep state, the 5 Eyes corrupt intelligence service of multiple foreign nations, the entire force and power of every department of the USA government including numerous traitors and backstabbers from his own Party, survived and defied an assassination attempt that drew blood, who has shown an extraordinary intelligence and ability to shape the geopolitical landscape for the benefit of the nation he serves, laudable perseverance despite widespread international hostility and hatred, and demonstrated grace, determination, and good nature while opposing abject evil from every quarter. The entire world would be better off if Donald Trump had more "clout", if the rest of the world took the man as an exemplar.
The best thing that Trump could do for Bill's ratings is to start a public feud with him and bash him for being too far left. Both Trump and Bill know that. I wouldn't be surprised if they really like each other a lot. (In kind of a Reagan/Tip O'Neil way.)
I couldn't do what either man does, even Maher's relatively simple job, but Trump is amazing in what he has done and now gets done at his age - things that people have said were impossible right up to the moment he accomplishes them, and then they say it was no big deal. Yea, that's a better class of human than me, and most others in history.
If MAGAts possessed a sense of shame, this ranting of a dementia patient parading as the leader of the US would give them the douche chills, like it does for rational folks.
No chance that vile Latina mouthpiece would ever be invited to the White House. Strange that she is shouting that the community most threatened by enforcement of our immigration laws look and sound like her.
It is 100% like watching Biden 2.0. It's so obvious that Trump's noodle is COOKED. He is a senile pantshitter but when you are all in on MAGA they have to play act like all it is normal. They have no self awareness to see that they are as fucking stupid as the Biden loving Democrats.
It's totally different when OUR GUY is shitting his pants.
ONE of the differences between free thinking people and people indocternated into a cult is that I voted for Biden and can recognize that he was unfit to run for a second term. MAGAts will shill for Dementia Donnie until the last drop of kool aid is poured down their gullets.
Again with the massive power of persuasion and debate, calling your fellow commenters a derivative of 'maggots'.
What evidence do you present to support the notion that Trump has dementia? He's off, jetting around to lead 1 or 2 rallies per day, nationwide, keeping up a stream of monolog at each one, one riff after another.
I think it's become a cliched shtick, but how is it a sign of anything but remarkable determination and stamina for an 80 year old? Where were you when Joe couldn't make it through a 2 minute stump speech, using a teleprompter with letters a foot high, and calling it a day at 1 o'clock? Using cue cards with a picture of the reporter to be called on, that had already been coached by a staffer?
Do you think we're impressed with your observation skills, or your intellect? All your showing is your *ss. Try showing us your ideas.
LOL, thanks for proving my point MAGat Aggie. Donnie's brain is mush and he shows it every time he opens his gob or hits the twitter keys. I have a lot of contempt for the kind of hateful fucks that allowed this to happen and then deny the reality of the situation so shamelessly.
LOL. Yes, MAGAt Aggie. Thank you for proving my point. Your continuing denial of the reality is noted.. Donnie's brain is mush and it's evident everytime he opens his gob or hits the twitter keys or snarls at a reporter or wanders off and waves to imaginary people.
You and your ilk have royally f*cked this nation and will never own that fact, THAT's why I have contempt for you,
"What evidence do you present to support the notion that Trump has dementia?"
The left has been making that claim for a while, so they're stuck keeping up with it. It's not like they can admit it's not true without being banished from progclub.
"What evidence do you present to support the notion that Trump has dementia?"
The same evidence there was that Biden had dementia--forgetting key names of world leaders, the nonsensical Grampa Simpson rants, the distractibility, etc, etc.

I was here making fun of him!
Where are you now? Worshipping an 80 year old pantshitter. Nice!
The 'Trump has dementia' canard has never risen above pay back for Biden's actual dementia. The good(er than you) people that voted for Biden can't be the good people unless the stupid MAGAts ALSO voted for a dementia patient. Yo Lefty, get your dementia vaccination up to date. You can catch that with a stray sneeze.
'...Where are you now? Worshipping an 80 year old pantsh*tter. Nice! ...'
That's pathetic. I've never worshiped Trump and have been quick to point out when I think he does something stupid, and that's been many times. The whole bunch of you have wound yourself up into a frenzy in your desperation to push/pull the vote, mentioning all kinds of unhinged and unfalsifiable nonsense to justify it. I've said many times that I really don't have a feel of which way this election will go, but you're providing some valuable insight to that proposition. Independent voters are going to look at what your bunch are writing and they'll be transported back in time a few years to review their poignant memories of what Progressives were like when they had a little power. Thank you for your service !
"I've never worshiped Trump and have been quick to point out when I think he does something stupid, and that's been many times." No, it has not. People don't win arguments or respect from Democrat Party libtards by repeating their lies back to them.

But what does Trump think of Maher's ass?
It is kinda funny that Bill Maher keeps trying to be Trump’s friend while Trump continues to dump all over him on a regular basis.
Trump also calls him a drunk and a pothead. Which is hilarious and writes:
"Also, turn your Laugh Machine off, it’s a joke when they laugh uncontrollably, even when you say nothing funny, and I’m going to have the Republicans not cover you anymore, because they try to talk about you as a guy who is transformative. You’re not transformative, you’re a Loser!"
Jon Stewart's audience is the same. All Stewart has to do is raise an eyebrow and they applaud and laugh. But that's libtards for you.
Bill's going to have stiff competition with Nicki Minaj for presidential attention now. Trump is slummin' it, maybe for the mid-terms, but it does beg the question of who's more low-brow, Maher or Minaj?
"He’s not a nice guy, and what he spouts isn’t what he believes."
Maher is literally on record being proud of not knowing what he believes.

Trump needs to start calling out the shills. The corporate media is the problem here and Maher is just a sellout.

I suspect he does a lot less thinking about it than you do, Indefinitely Extended Enema.

The fact that Kid Rock is a frequent presidential guest and that's just considered normal. What a stupid timeline.
Some quality lyrics from Mr. Rock: "Young ladies, young ladies, I like 'em underage. See, some say that's statutory, but I say it's mandatory."
Very on-brand for MAGA.
That even Bill Maher can't bring himself to say that Joe Biden was a puppet, a vegetable, and a loyal mobster -who ran an Illegal - Illegal entrant program/Dem fascist super-plan - is rather pathetic.
Bland neutrality.
It's all so High School.
I just wasted 6:36 minutes of my life watching the clip from the View.
The so-called comedian Maher is looked to as a Democrat strategist and that should inform opinions about the perennially mota-stupefied moron.
That’s the spirit, planetgeo @9:08AM!
RE: "the laugh machine". I confess to listenin to "Real Time" every week, and that's the one thing that really irks me about it. The "studio audience" is stirred up to a whooping braying frenzy at every morsel that falls from Maher's tongue. It is really annoying.

Where is that elusive "better class of human being", because I haven't seen a President that I would consider that in my lifetime, other than Reagan.

Not persuaded.

The same evidence there was that Biden had dementia--forgetting key names of world leaders, the nonsensical Grampa Simpson rants, the distractibility, etc, etc.
Both men have even mixed up Zelensky and Putin.

In a similar vein, Freder brought up somebody's ass last week. Apparently, Trump said something that spun them up.
They hang on his every word - twist it into something it's not - and then run around like squealing little kids who captured a fart in a bottle.
