D.L. Hughley calls out Bill Maher for meeting with Donald Trump at the White House.
While briefly speaking with TMZ, the comedian said that he was not happy with Maher’s visit and said that the president is a “transactional” man. He added that Trump is trying to get something out of Maher and said that Maher and Trump’s administration have a lot of things in common.
“Bill Maher’s position on ‘woke’ is virtually in the same line as Trump. I think he’s been a vociferous opponent of ‘woke,’” Hughley said. “I can’t even tell or differentiate some of the things the administration has said about the ‘woke’ phenomenon, and he has so I think they had a lot in common.”
He was then asked if there was something wrong with meeting with the president to bring forth important topics to him. Hughley responded that Trump has not listened to the people closest to him, so he wouldn’t listen to anybody else. “Men like that: Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and Bill Maher, to a great degree, have amplified this narrative to the expense that everybody believes it. And it’s insulting to me.”
