Larry David Tees Off on Trump: ‘He’s a Sociopath’

Larry David Tees Off on Trump: ‘He’s a Sociopath’

Larry David didn’t curb any of his feelings about Donald Trump during an upcoming interview on Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace? on Max. The comedian teed off on the former president, speaking with rare candor about his political views — or at least his views about the former president.

“You can’t go a day without thinking about what he’s done to this country,” David responded to a question from Chris Wallace about how the 2020 election and its aftermath has affected him. “He’s such a little baby that he’s thrown 250 years of democracy out the window by not accepting the results of the election. It’s so crazy. He’s such a sociopath. He’s so insane. He just couldn’t admit to losing. We know he lost. He knows he lost — and look at how he’s fooled everybody, he’s convinced all these people that he didn’t lose. He’s such a sick man. He’s so sick.”


“Anyway, no, it hasn’t impacted me at all,” he added with a laugh.

It certainly isn’t surprising that David isn’t a fan of Trump, although he has incorporated the cult around the former president into “Curb Your Enthusiasm.” In a 2020 episode of the show, David uses a MAGA hat both to avoid having to talk to people, and to get out of altercations with conservatives. In one scene, he cuts off a burly guy on a motorcycle. When the rider accosts David, David quickly throws on the MAGA hat. “Oh, just be more careful next time,” the guy says.

Trump tweeted the clip. “TOUGH GUYS FOR TRUMP,” he wrote, missing the joke.

How Trump Made America’s 250th Anniversary About Himself: An Incomplete List

Donald Trump’s favorite thing about America is that he lives in it. It’s hard to point to a president that wasn’t self-absorbed, of course — Obama had an ego on him, as well — but “President DJT,” as he signs his tweets, takes personal pride to a new level.

Trump has put his personal stamp on every American institution within his reach, and the celebration of the country’s 250th anniversary, known confusingly as the semiquincentennial, is no exception. Instead of a celebration of the country, Trump’s “Freedom 250” celebrations honor a particular vision of America — one set by one man, organized largely to boost his ego and flex his power over our political system and way of life.

It’s the Corruption, Stupid

It’s the Corruption, Stupid

Let’s say it plainly: There has never been a president as corrupt as Donald Trump. There is no close second in our history.

Take two days in May as Exhibit A. Americans just found out that in the first quarter of this year, Trump’s stock portfolio made 3,600 trades — an average of nearly 60 a day. This is a rapacious pace that would make a day trader on meth blush. Many of these appear suspiciously timed to benefit from actions approved by the president himself. For example, his Nvidia stock surged after Trump announced the company would be permitted to sell its cutting-edge AI chips to China. Similar suspiciously well-timed calls were made ahead of big government moves involving other companies, from Intel to Palantir to Boeing. The Trump Organization says all trades are made by a third-party investment advisor. If so, they appear to be psychic.

‘Incredible Guy’ Xi Jinping Softens Trump Up With Chinese Pageantry

President Donald Trump had a wonderful time on his big trip to China. After all, what’s not to like?

In a series of meetings with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, Trump delivered a stunning highlight reel of flawless international diplomacy, breathlessly praising the competing global superpower at every turn while largely brushing off contentious issues like trade, cybersecurity concerns, Taiwan’s right to self determination, and China’s support for Iran. The art of the deal in action.

Kash Patel Went on ‘VIP Snorkel’ Adventure Around Pearl Harbor Wreckage: Report

Even though the following sentence will read like Government Mad Libs with the blanks already filled in, The Associated Press reports it to be true:

While on [activity] official business, [U.S. official] FBI Director Kash Patel went on [another activity] a “VIP snorkel” around [solemn U.S. memorial] Pearl Harbor’s USS Arizona battleship, which [now make it so much worse] entombs more than 900 sailors and Marines who died in a WWII attack so horrific President Franklin Roosevelt called it “a date which will live in infamy.”

How Trump’s Family Is Cashing in on His Presidency

“FOUNDATION FUTURE INDUSTRIES LANDS $24 MILLION PENTAGON CONTRACT” screamed the Fox Business Network chyron Thursday morning. Host Maria Bartiromo teed up her segment, explaining that the defense tech startup was developing “autonomous humanoid robots” to help troops “breach enemy sites more safely.”

Bartiromo’s guest? Eric Trump, Foundation Future Industries’ chief strategy adviser who also happens to be the son of the man in charge of the government that doled out the eight-figure contract. The host congratulated Trump and Foundation Future’s founder Sankaet Pathat — also a guest — on landing such a lucrative payday. No mention was made of the clear ethics quandary involved in the president’s administration funneling millions in taxpayer funds toward his family through federal contracts. Then again, the amount given to Foundation Future is barely a drop in the swimming pool of wealth the Trump family has accumulated by leveraging their patriarch’s position over the last 18 months. They clearly feel no need to hide.
