Bill Maher Torches Trump Over ‘Two Dolls’ Rants: ‘Losing An Imaginary Negotiation — To Children’

Comic and political pundit Bill Maher mocked President Donald Trump as a “dealmaker-in-chief” who is losing an “imaginary negotiation” to hypothetical little girls in the midst of his global trade war.

On Friday night’s edition of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, the interview guests was David Hogg, vice chair of the Democratic National Committee and co-founder of the Leaders We Deserve PAC.

The panel guests were Donna Brazile, political strategist, ABC News contributor, and former DNC chair; and Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY).

But first Maher ripped Trump during his monologue over, among other things, the now-infamous series of rants that began with little girls making due with “two dolls instead of 30 dolls”:

BILL MAHER: He’s got bigger things on his mind. Dolls! He’s obsessed with how many dolls we get to have. He said, consumers don’t need 30 dolls.

30? I can barely blow up one! What the…

Um, but no… What is it with the dolls? Three times, three times in the last week now, three times he has defended his tariffs talking about dolls.

First off, “Maybe children will have to have two dolls,” and then a couple of days later he said “They’re gonna have three or four dolls.” (LAUGHTER)

And then he bumped it up the next day, five dolls. (LAUGHTER)

Yes, that’s our deal-maker-in-chief. Losing… (APPLAUSE).

Losing an imaginary negotiation with children. (LAUGHTER)

But no, dolls are not the only thing we’re gonna have to cut down on, please. He also said, people don’t need 250 pencils, they can have five.

Well, this is really going to put a crimp in Pencil-con. They can have five?

Well, this is gonna sting, five pencils, because I use a lot of pencils because it’s 1960? I mean–.

I need pencils in case I have to write my name in my hula hoop. Who has a pencil, what the fuck is it?
