Bill Maher calls Larry David’s satire of his Trump dinner ‘kind of insulting to 6 million dead Jews’

Nobody has been harder ... about Donald Trump than me,' Maher says after fellow comedian compared his meal with US president to meeting Hitler

Bill Maher has responded to Larry David's satirical essay in the New York Times that compared Maher's glowing account of having dinner with Donald Trump to dining with Adolf Hitler.

Maher, a vocal critic of Trump in the past, had dinner with the US president and a group of his high-profile supporters, including their mutual friend Kid Rock, on 31 March. On an episode of his talkshow Real Time on 11 April, Maher described Trump as gracious" and much more self-aware than he lets on", saying: Everything I've ever not liked about him was - I swear to God - absent, at least on this night with this guy."
