Bill Maher Calls Out “Crazy Stupid Criminal” Donald Trump During Debate With Joe Rogan: “He’s a Clinical Case of Malignant Narcissism”

Bill Maher was not afraid to challenge Joe Rogan after he questioned the trustworthiness of President Joe Biden. On a recent episode of the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, the duo went back and forth comparing the current president to the GOP primary frontrunner Donald Trump.

Both men agreed that Biden “might not make it” to the 2024 presidential election and that Trump “looks a lot and sounds a lot more hearty and robust and healthy.” However, Maher was quick to clap back when Rogan pointed out that Biden “lies a lot.”

“Well, certainly not more than Trump,” he argued, to which Rogan replied, “I think they both lie. If you want to talk about Trump, we can talk about Trump. But if you just talk about Biden — I don’t think comparing him to Trump does anybody any good.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Rogan doubled down on why he believes Trump is sharper than a “mentally compromised” Biden.

“He speaks much clearer,” Rogan said. “He might be crazy. He might be a sociopath. It still doesn’t take away from the fact there’s something wrong with Biden. He makes up words. He stumbles through things. He doesn’t seem to know where he is half the time. That’s my problem with him.”

When Rogan pointed out that Trump is the “only” president who didn’t “noticeably age,” Maher quipped that “we” as a country did, before going on to slam the former president.

“He’s a criminal and he’s crazy and he’s stupid. And crazy and stupid are two different things,” the Real Time host said. “Stupid is like, ‘Frederick Douglass is alive’ or ‘the stealth bomber is literally invisible.’ Or ‘nobody knew healthcare is hard to solve.’ That’s just stupid. He’s very stupid.”

He continued, “Crazy is, ‘it’s important that the crowd at my inauguration was the biggest ever, and I’m going to make an issue of this for the first two weeks of my presidency despite photographic evidence of the contrary.’ Or, ‘I’m going to steal these documents, and I’m going put them next to the toilet at Mar-a-Lago, and I’m going to fight you to take them back.’ Or, ‘[I’m] not conceding the election.’ Those are crazy … He’s both stupid and crazy. He’s also a criminal.”

The two went on to discuss Trump’s 91 criminal charges, with Maher blasting him as a “clinical case of malignant narcissism” for his continuous refusal to admit defeat in the 2020 election.

“It’s not a quirk. It’s actually in the big book of crazy,” he said. “It’s a real thing. It affects everything he thinks and does. It’s why foreign leaders were able to curry favor from him — all they had to do was kiss his ass and they got whatever they wanted.”

Maher added, “I think [Russian President Vladimir] Putin had him as soon as he said, ‘I think Trump is a brilliant man’ … He’s a dangerous guy. Again, Biden is not my first choice — not my hundredth choice — but the other guy is a crazy, stupid criminal.”
