President Trump Posts Long Rant Slamming Bill Maher as a ‘Loser’ and ‘Coward’: ‘Don’t Call Anymore’

President Donald Trump has a lot to say about Bill Maher following their recent dinner.

On Sunday, October 25, the commander in chief, 80, shared a 1,321-word post about the talk show host, 70, on Truth Social — his longest social media post since 2011, according to Fact Base.

The rant began with the president telling his followers, “Let’s talk about this COMPLETE AND TOTAL LOSER, Bill Maher,” and calling his HBO show Real Time with Bill Maher “Low Rated,” before explaining that he and Maher share a mutual friend.

“Maher’s friend and business associate, Chuck LaBella, was also a friend of mine, worked on The Top Hit Show, The Apprentice, as a ‘gofer’ and, because of the success of that show, Number One and Top Rated on many weeks, with the Finale’ being among the Top Shows of the Year, he was automatically and quickly brought up through the Ranks of NBC,” Trump explained. “In any event, over the last few years, LaBella would call me nonstop to say, ‘Hello,’ be very nice, and tell me how much Bill Maher ‘loves’ and respects me, and would constantly ask of me, even before I was President, for any form of meeting with Maher and, would I do his show?”

“When I became President, I agreed to meet, after the first one, and the last one, but never agreed to do his show, which he wants me to do, DESPARATELY [sic] — It won’t happen! When I have watched the show, which isn’t often, it always ends with dishonesty, about me at least, but, who cares?” Trump continued.

During the October 23 show, Maher said in his monologue, “Trump has the lowest approval rating of any midterm candidate ever. Only 1 percent of the Republicans are mentioning him in their ads.”

However, the billionaire disputed this, citing different polls in his Truth Social post before claiming Maher “lies about everything,” including about using a “Laughter Machine.”

Trump then alleged LaBella and Kid Rock “called me incessantly about meeting” Maher.

“My first response was, ‘Fellas, this guy’s a Goofball.’ They said, ‘He wants to go down to the White House, be with you, and talk. He said you’re very smart, but you’re not into the Liberal Platform. Will you start thinking about it?'” Trump recounted. “He invited himself to the White House! We had our first meeting, Bill was very nervous. He asked for a drink. He was very insecure, and he had a seriously bruised eye and nose area, as though somebody had just beaten him up — But it wasn’t me!”

“No sooner had we had that first dinner at the White House,” Trump continued, “Bill wanted to come back.”

“The Gofer called me multiple times, saying how much Bill loves me, that he respects me more than anybody, and wants to come back for a second meeting,” the Apprentice alum explained. “After ten calls from Chuck LaBella, it seemed that these guys were serious, and wanted to learn more, because their Policies are so bad, it’s ridiculous!”

Trump also accused either LaBella or Maher of being a “major POTHEAD,” but is unclear which he was referring to.

“Bill was drunk and had alcohol in his hand as he walked through the White House. Stephen A. Smith and Kid Rock came along with him,” Trump remembered. “Overall, I thought it was a good meeting. It didn’t last four hours, it lasted two hours, maybe less, and everybody was happy. We have the timestamps. I learned nothing, and felt it was a waste of time.”

“After the first dinner, Bill Maher was friendly, I guess, everyone walked away pleased. He gave me a good first show, with lots of Laughing Machine laughter, which is a real term, but it is what it is, and then reverted back to his former self, and his old ways,” he penned. “I understand that. He’s doing his thing. I never took it very personally. I would always mock his Low Ratings, whenever I heard.”

According to USA Today, Trump and Maher met in March 2025 and then had dinner together at the White House on October 15. The politician told reporters the evening “was great.”

Still, Trump described Maher as “not a nice guy” in his Truth Social post and claimed “what he spouts isn’t what he believes,” rather “he has to cater to his base.”

“It’s why, for so long, I didn’t get another call from Chuck LaBella, and I didn’t miss him one bit. After the second dinner, Bill’s show was far worse than the first. He went crazy! He’s gutless, because he enjoyed every minute.”

Not wanting to hear from Maher again, Trump insisted, “Bill: Don’t call anymore. It’s useless, and tell Chuck LaBella not to call so much, and say how much you love ‘TRUMP,’ and want to get together, because you’re a hopeless guy, who is just trying to cater to your small group of ‘fans.'”

“You’re also a coward who is afraid to tell the truth about how well our Country is running because of your few ‘fans,’ and how badly the Dumocrats have done, almost destroying the U.S.A.,” he added. “Also, turn your Laugh Machine off, it’s a joke when they laugh uncontrollably, even when you say nothing funny, and I’m going to have the Republicans not cover you anymore, because they try to talk about you as a guy who is transformative. You’re not transformative, you’re a Loser!”

Maher has yet to address Trump’s post, but on the October 14 episode of his Club Random podcast he said, “After the first dinner, I went back to doing what I do … But then, like, he just, out of the blue, ‘let’s have dinner again.’ And I was like, ‘great.’ And he was really nice.”
