Pulitzer Prize-winning screenwriter David Mamet recalled a long call from Donald Trump because he dared not fully participate in the then-President-founded 2020 election conspiracy theory.
Trump's big fan Mamet appeared on Bill Maher's “Club Random Podcast” this week, remembering whether the election was stolen from Trump's “kind of it” when he appeared on Maher's HBO show “Real-Time.”
The next morning at 8 a.m., a Hollywood veteran said he received a call from Trump, who told him: “I met you on Bill Maher yesterday and you're great. But you're shocked by the stolen election.”
Trump then “talked with me for about 20 minutes and discussed how the election was stolen.”
“But no,” Mah reminded him.
Mamet, a years-long voice critic of the progressive cause, called former President Barack Obama a “tyrant” and described diversity, equity and inclusion work as “trash”, answering: “Well, I think so.”
Maher noted how the incumbent President Joe Biden’s unified claims in dozens of court cases were manipulated, dismissed by Trump’s own commissioner, with analysts describing the 2020 vote as “the fairest and honest election we have ever had.”
Mamet argues that Trump will win the majority if all kinds of problems are not suppressed. “Oh, please. It's ridiculous,” Maher said, doubting they'll wield the result.
