Bill Maher Praises Trump as 'One of the Most Effective Politicians' After White House Dinner

The longtime Trump critic highlighted the president's authenticity and unique voter appeal during a recent podcast episode.

Bill Maher, traditionally a vocal critic of Donald Trump, described him as 'one of the most effective politicians' on his Club Random podcast with Chris Cuomo.
The remarks followed Maher’s attendance at a White House dinner, arranged by Kid Rock, where he and Trump discussed shared interests and political topics.
Maher pointed to Trump’s unorthodox tactics, such as reportedly threatening a Taliban leader with an aerial photo, as examples of his political instinct and effectiveness.
He emphasized Trump's ability to connect with voters on a 'primal level,' contrasting it with the Democratic Party's struggle to find a charismatic, 'alpha' leader.
Maher plans to further discuss his evolving perspective on Trump and the White House dinner on the April 11 episode of Real Time.
