In a recent outburst on Truth Social, former President Donald Trump warned that he is targeting three late-night talk show hosts, boasting about his perceived victories against Stephen Colbert and rogue Republican congressman Thomas Massie. Trump, who will turn 80 this month, made 47 posts in just 31 minutes, claiming a personal score of 38-0 against his enemies. Among those he mentioned was Bill Maher, whom he labeled 'weak and ineffective' and criticized for his show's low ratings. Trump's posts also included a jab at Maher's audience laughter, referring to it as a 'Fake Laughing Machine.' The former president's tirade reflects his ongoing feud with late-night hosts who have mocked him, including Jimmy Kimmel, whose show Trump has also disparaged. While Maher has previously interacted with Trump, including a dinner at the White House, the relationship has soured, especially after Maher made jokes about Trump's upcoming musical event. The identity of the third late-night host Trump is targeting remains unclear, as he has previously criticized other comedians like Seth Meyers and John Oliver.
