Donald Trump has hit back at television host Bill Maher, calling him a “befuddled mess” in response to Maher’s recent speculation that Trump might be having a relationship with far-right activist Laura Loomer.
The former president took to Truth Social on Saturday, September 21, to express his frustration with Maher and the panellists from the latest episode of Real Time with Bill Maher, which aired on Friday night.
In his lengthy post, Trump criticised Maher as a “sloppy and tired host” who is obsessed with him and slammed the show’s “B and C list guests” for constantly attacking him. Trump also targeted MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle, labelling her a puppet for the Democratic party, and suggested that New York Times contributor Bret Stephens should find a new job, accusing him of working for the “FAILING” newspaper.
Maher’s latest show featured controversial remarks about Trump, with Maher pushing the theory that Trump might be romantically involved with Loomer. Maher provocatively stated, “Who’s Trump f**ing? Because I said, ‘it’s not nobody.’ He’s been a dog for too long. And it’s not Melania. I think we may have our answer this week.“*
Loomer responded quickly after the show aired, threatening to sue Maher for libel, calling the claim a “complete and blatant lie,” and condemning the disrespect shown towards both Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.
