Liberal comedian Bill Maher will soon be meeting President Donald Trump at the White House, Fox News Digital has learned.
Maher revealed to fellow comedian Andrew Schulz that Maher agreed to Kid Rock’s offer to introduce him to his political foe, in an exchange that will air on Sunday’s installment of Maher’s “Club Random” podcast.
“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 told Schulz.
“And there will be lots of people on the left who will be like, ‘How dare you talk to this man.’ It’s like ‘f— you,’” Maher continued. “I’m not playing this game that you mean girls play, like, ‘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 f— do you think you have to talk to?”
“It’s one thing if you win it. It’s another thing if you lose it,” he added.
Kid Rock was a guest on Maher’s show “Real Time” last month and is a strong supporter of Trump. Maher has long been a fierce critic of Trump but has stood out among progressives with his criticism of so-called wokeism and calls to better understand Trump’s supporters.
Maher predicted liberals on the left will say “how dare you” talk to Trump, but he didn’t care.
“And there will be lots of people on the left who will be like, ‘How dare you talk to this man.’ It’s like f— you, I’m not playing this game that you mean girls play,” Maher 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 f— do you think you have to talk to?”
The White House did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital‘s request for comment.
