On Sunday evening, Donald Trump published a post on his Truth Social platform targeting late-night host Bill Maher. In the message, which spanned approximately 1,300 words, Trump referred to Maher as a "total loser" and criticized the quality of his program, *Real Time with Bill Maher*, which airs on HBO. Trump’s remarks followed an episode of the show featuring an interview with Karoline Leavitt, who served as a press secretary during the Trump administration.

Trump’s critique focused heavily on the perceived decline of HBO as a network and the viewership numbers of Maher’s show. While Trump characterized the host and the network as having lost their former status, he did not specify which particular comments made by Leavitt or Maher during the interview prompted the response. The post serves as the latest instance of the former president using social media to express grievances regarding media figures and television personalities. As of now, Maher has not issued a formal response to the specific claims made in the post. The incident highlights the ongoing tension between Trump and various figures in the entertainment and news media industries.
