Bill Maher Scoffs at Critics Mad He’s Meeting with Trump at White House: ‘F*ck You, I’m Not Playing This Game You Mean Girls Play’
Bill Maher confirmed he is meeting with President Donald Trump at the White House in a deal that was brokered by musician Kid Rock.
In an episode of the Club Random podcast that will air on Sunday, according to a preview shared with Mediaite, Maher confirmed to fellow comedian Andrew Schulz that he will be sitting down with the president at the White House in a meeting that was suggested by musician and past Club Random guest Kid Rock.
Maher also said he would not be dressing like Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and he’d be wearing a suit as a “sign of respect.” Zelensky, whose country is fighting off a Russian invasion, was confronted by a pro-Trump reporter about not wearing a suit during a recent heated White House visit.
“Kid Rock was here a couple of weeks ago, and he said, ‘I want you to meet Trump.’ He said, ‘I’m gonna take you to the White House.’ So now we’re gonna do that,” Maher revealed to Schulz.
Kid Rock, a vocal supporter of the president, had recently mentioned this potential meeting in an interview with Glenn Beck.
“I’m actually going to try and unite this country and I’m starting at the end of the month I’m taking Bill Maher to the White House for dinner. This guy who has done nothing but talk smack about the president since day one,” he said, adding he hopes it sends a “message” of unity to the country.
Maher, almost as vocal of a critic of Trump’s administration as Rock is a supporter, dismissed any liberal critics that were taking issue with his White House visit, calling them “mean girls.”
“There will be lots of people on the left who will be like, ‘How dare you talk to this man.’ It’s like ‘fuck you, I’m not playing this game that you mean girls play,'” the comedian said. “‘Oh, you know what? You can’t sit at my lunch table, because I’m just not talking to you.’ Not talking to you? You lost the election. Who the fuck do you think you have to talk to?”
