Donald Trump launches record-length Truth Social attack on Bill Maher

President Donald Trump published a 1,323-word post on Truth Social, marking his longest social media message since 2011, targeting comedian Bill Maher. The diatribe follows Maher’s recent appearance on HBO’s ‘Real Time,’ which was the host's first episode since dining with the president at the White House on October 15.

Trump branded Maher a “complete and total loser” and a “sleazebag,” accusing him of dishonesty regarding the president's approval ratings and the duration of their recent dinner. While Maher described the meeting as a positive four-hour dialogue, Trump disputed this, claiming it lasted “two hours, maybe less” and was a “waste of time.”

The post also targeted Maher’s producer, Chuck LaBella, and HBO, while questioning the authenticity of the laughter on Maher's program. Additionally, Trump used the platform to suggest he is considering relocating the White House press corps to free up space.
