Donald Trump: Fighting with Obama & Letterman

Donald Trump: Fighting with Obama & Letterman


Trading barbs as he immerses himself in the political arena, Donald Trump was on both the firing and receiving end of public tiffs with David Letterman and President Barack Obama over the past twenty-four hours.

The "Apprentice" mogul continued his belittling of the U.S. Commander-In-Chief during an event in Nevada on Thursday (April 28) in which he called Obama "stupid".

Trump told the Las Vegas casino audience, “Our leaders are stupid, they are stupid people. It’s just very, very sad.”


All of the negative banter seemed to get under the skin of late night talk show host David Letterman, who insinuated that Donald is a "racist" while chatting with his latest guest, Dr. Phil.

“It’s all fun, it’s all a circus, it’s all a rodeo – until it starts to smack of racism," Letterman told. Then asking Dr. Phil if he considers Trump a racist, the do-good doctor said, “I do not,” while adding that the self-proclaimed billionaire lacks the quality of thinking before speaking.

Seemingly not in agreement, Letterman then said, “If he comes back on this show, and I am not sure we want him back on this show under these circumstances, he ought to be prepared to apologize just for that kind of behavior.”

Rounding out the guest list of stars were lovely actress Mila Kunis, "Glee" star Matthew Morrison, "Curb Your Enthusiasm" actress Cheryl Hines and famous daughter Bristol Palin, as well as Nina Dobrev, America Ferrera and Elizabeth Banks.


With Seth Meyers leading the audience through the evening agenda, the comedic actor said prior to the dinner cocktail party's kickoff, "It may be a tough room. But as someone who follows politics, I think it’s really exciting to go into a room where people are incredibly well-informed."

Meyers added, "You can probably make jokes about the minutiae of politics that wouldn’t work on Saturday Night Live.”
