David Letterman Calls Donald Trump ‘Psychotic’
David Letterman has been getting real introspective on his Netflix show My Next Guest Needs No Introduction, and as a result he’s been making the rounds in the media circuit and saying some interesting things about Donald Trump.
During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the 72-year old former late-night host reflected on his past interviews with Trump, who made over 30 appearances on his show.
“I think he just liked being on TV,” David said. “I had no sense that he was the soulless bastard that he’s turned into,” adding, “Everybody says, ‘Oh, wouldn’t you like to talk to Donald Trump [today]?’ And I would. I would just like to say, ‘Don, it’s Dave. Remember me? I want to talk to the real Donald Trump.’”
“I now don’t know which is the real Donald Trump,” he explained, “and if the Donald Trump that I was talking to [back then] was the real Donald Trump, how do you get to be the guy he is now? Politics notwithstanding — let’s just say everything is great and he’s done a great job, but he still behaves the way he behaves — who behaves like that?”
Ouch! Good point, Dave.
