During a candid and somewhat surprising exchange, Bill Maher openly admitted he respects Donald Trump for attempting to block him from receiving the prestigious Mark Twain Prize for American Humor at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. Speaking with Woody Harrelson, Maher didn’t shy away from acknowledging the boldness of the move, saying he “loved” that Trump tried to stop it and even suggested the former president still has the power to do so. Rather than criticizing the effort, Maher framed it as a sign of seriousness, noting that Trump “takes the game seriously” and isn’t afraid to make aggressive plays—even against outspoken critics.
