Television personality Bill Maher, who hosts the popular show Real Time With Bill Maher, shared his thoughts about potentially stepping away from his role during a pre-election Club Random podcast episode. Speaking with actress Jane Fonda in a conversation that reportedly happened over a month ago, Maher expressed his weariness regarding President-elect Donald Trump.
“I’m shiiting my pants,” Maher said. “It’s hard to believe.”
“I mean, I may quit,” Maher continued. “Because I don’t wanna do another – I did Trump. I did all the Trump stuff before anybody. I called him a con man before anybody. I did, ‘he’s a mafia boss.’ I was the one who said he wasn’t gonna concede the election. I’ve done it.”
Maher mentioned he’s “seen this fucking shit” when Fonda inquired about Trump’s attitude toward the host.
“He’s very hostile to me. He tweets about me every week,” Maher said.
In late September, Trump took to Truth Social to comment about witnessing “fake laughter” while watching “Low Rated Bill Maher.” A week prior, Trump had posted that “the ratings-challenged Bill Maher, on his increasingly boring show on HBO, is really having a hard time coping with TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME.”
“Every week, he accidentally watches my show and then, ‘low ratings loser,'” Maher said, mimicking Trump’s speaking style. “But, I mean, I just, I’m bored with it.”
When Fonda recommended that the host “find a new thing to do and not do Trump,” Maher explained that there’s “no other thing” since Real Time centers on political discourse.
