Bill Maher defends Trump’s Pearl Harbor joke

This comes after Maher fired back at Trump in early March, then revealed details about their private dinner and text messages.

“And finally, new rule: Someone needs to help Donald Trump understand that I don’t suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome – he suffers from Bill Maher Derangement Syndrome,” Maher joked at the start.

“To be clear, as far as the president claimed, I did not ask for the dinner. Our mutual friend asked me. It’s on the tape of my podcast,” Maher explained.

‘I had a good time. You too,” he said, addressing Trump directly. “Because we were talking like real people, and not like some crazy act you do in public.”

“I wasn’t nervous and scared, and the meal wasn’t moving quickly,” Maher added. “I was there for almost three hours, and it wasn’t vodka, it was a margarita.”

He also revealed that the president texted him after dinner, “complaining” about being part of the “crazy left.”
