1
And now, for what I know you've all been waiting for, I'd like to give you my book report on my visit to the White House.
2
Okay, as you know, 12 days ago, I had dinner with President Trump, a dinner that was set up by my friend Kid Rock,
3
because we share a belief that there's got to be something better than hurling insults from 3,000 miles away.
4
And let me first say
5
that to all the people who treated this like it was some kind of summit meeting, you're ridiculous.
6
Like I was gonna sign a treaty or something.
7
I have...
8
I have no power.
9
I'm a fucking comedian.
10
And he's the most powerful leader in the world.
11
I'm not the leader of anything, except maybe a contingent of centrist-minded people who think there's got
12
to be a better way of running this country than hating each other every minute. So...
13
Thank you. So...
14
Okay, so meet up in person.
15
Maybe it'll be different.
16
Spoiler alert, it was.
17
First good sign, before I left for the Capitol, I had my staff collect and print out
18
this list of almost 60 different insulting epithets
19
that the president has said about me things like stupid dummy low-life dummy sleazebag sick sad stone-cold crazy
20
really a dumb guy fired like a dog his show is dead
21
60 I brought this to the White House because I wanted him to sign it which he did
22
which he did with good humor and I know as I say that millions of liberal sphincters just tightened
23
oh my god bill you gonna say something nice about him
24
what I'm gonna do is report exactly what happened you decide what you think about it and if that's not enough
25
pure Trump hate for you, I don't give a fuck.
26
Yeah! So...
27
So, no, I didn't go MAGA.
28
And to the president's credit, there was no pressure to.
29
After we left the Oval Office, he showed me the little room off the office, you know, the one where Clinton used to...
30
Okay.
31
The blowjob room, okay?
32
Well, not anymore.
33
That's where they keep the merch now.
34
It is.
35
And he gave me a bunch of hats, but he didn't ask me to take a picture in one, which I appreciated.
36
The guy I met is not the person who the night
37
before the dinner shit-tweeted a bunch of nasty crap about how
38
he thought how he thought this dinner was a bad idea and what a deranged asshole I was, I read it and thought, oh, what a lovely way to welcome someone to your house.
39
But when I got there, that guy wasn't living there.
40
Now, does Trump want respect? Of course. Who doesn't?
41
My friend said to me, what are you going to wear to the White House?
42
I said, I don't know, but I'm not going to dress like Zelensky, I'll tell you that.
43
Just for starters, he laughs.
44
I've never seen him laugh in public, but he does, including it himself.
45
And it's not fake.
46
Believe me, as a comedian of 40 years, I know a fake laugh when I hear it.
47
And I thank you for that.
48
Uh, no. Okay, example.
49
In the Oval Office, he was showing me the portraits of presidents, and he pointed to Reagan and said, in all seriousness, you know the best thing about him?
50
His hair.
51
I said, well, there was also that whole bringing down communism thing,
52
waiting for the button next to the Diet Coke button to get pushed and I go through the trap door.
53
But no, he laughed, he got it.
54
I said to him at one point, Mr. President, you know the dog, that's unusual in the White House.
55
He said, well, a lot of the presidents, they had a dog for political reasons.
56
I said, no, people love dogs, that's what that is.
57
Oh yeah, okay, that's true.
58
I'm telling you what happened.
59
At one point, we were walking through his amazing, it is an amazing tour of the whole house.
60
And I don't remember exactly what we were talking about, but it must have been something with the 2020 election.
61
Because I know he used the word lost.
62
And I distinctly remember saying, wow, I never thought I'd hear you say that.
63
He didn't get mad.
64
He's much more self-aware than he lets on in public.
65
Look, I get it.
66
It doesn't matter who he is at a private dinner with a comedian.
67
It matters who he is on the world stage.
68
I'm just taking it as a positive that this person exists because everything I've ever not liked about him was, I swear to God, absent,
69
at least on this night with this guy.
70
Bob Kidrock told me the night before, he said, if you want to get a word in edgewise, you're going to have to cut him off.
71
He'll just go on.
72
Not at all.
73
I've had so many conversations with prominent people who are much less connected.
74
People who don't look you in the eye.
75
People who don't really listen because they just want to get to their next thing.
76
People whose response to things you say just doesn't track like, what?
77
None of that with him.
78
And he mostly steered the conversation to, what do you think about this?
79
I know, your mind is blown, so is mine.
80
There were so many moments when I hit him with a joke or contradicted something and no problem.
81
At dinner, he was asking me about the nuclear situation in Iran in a very genuine, hey, I think you're a smart guy, I want your opinion sort of way.
82
And I said, well, obviously you're privy to things about it, and I'm not, but for what it's worth,
83
I thought the Obama deal was worth letting play out because we made Iran destroy 98% of the uranium, and they were 15 years away from a bomb.
84
And then I said to him, but we got rid of that.
85
You got rid of that.
86
He didn't get mad or call me a left-wing lunatic.
87
He took it in.
88
I told him I thought parts of his plan for Gaza were wacky, but that I had supported him in the idea that Gaza could be Dubai instead of hell.
89
I told him he was wrong when he tweeted the night before that I was critical of all things Trump.
90
Not true.
91
Check the tapes.
92
Moving Israel's embassy to Jerusalem?
93
Loved it.
94
The border did need to be controlled.
95
I'm glad the cops are getting their morale back.
96
DEI had gone too far.
97
Biological men shouldn't be playing women's sports.
98
Europe should pay for their defense.
99
And, of course, it makes sense that Arab countries should take in Arab refugees, like the million Syrians who wound up in Germany when Saudi Arabia took none.
100
He said to me, you're right, they took none.
101
I said, well, you should remind your boyfriend in Saudi Arabia that the next time you see him.
102
He laughed.
103
I never felt I had to walk on eggshells around him.
104
And honestly, I voted for Clinton and Obama.
105
but I would never feel comfortable talking to them the way I was able to talk with Donald Trump.
106
That's just how it went down.
107
Make of it what you will.
108
Me, I feel it's emblematic of why the Democrats are so unpopular these days.
109
He was even okay when I checked him on the orangutan...
110
...lossuit.
111
He was.
112
I know.
113
He said to Dana White, you know, Bill said my father was an orangutan, and I really love my father.
114
And I said, well, Mr. President, I did that because I didn't like what you were doing regarding Obama's birth origins.
115
I thought that was low.
116
Again, no anger, just a little smile, as if to say, yeah, I get it.
117
The most surreal part of the whole night was when I got home.
118
I flew back right after the dinner, and I'm in bed watching 60 Minutes from the night before.
119
And there's Trump in one of their stories, standing at a podium in a room that looked to me like one of the rooms and places we'd just been in.
120
And he's ranting, disgusting, you're a terrible person.
121
And I'm like, who's that guy?
122
What happened to Glinda the Goodwitch?
123
And why can't we get the guy I met to be the public guy?
124
And I'm not saying it's our responsibility to do that.
125
It's not.
126
I'm just reporting exactly what I saw over two and a half hours.
127
I went into the mine, and that's what's down there.
128
A crazy person doesn't live in the White House.
129
A person who plays a crazy person on TV a lot lives there, which I know is fucked up.
130
It's just not as fucked up as I thought it was.
131
And I have no illusions now that I'm back to work at my job that he might start a new list.
132
Because I don't have a good feeling and will be critical about a lot of what he's doing.
133
The trade war and disappearing people, ruling by decree, threatening judges, gutting the government with glee.
134
But I also think he now understands I have a job to do.
135
Or at least he did on this night.
136
Because he said to me early on that he'd seen our last episode, which was the Friday before this dinner.
137
And he said, I thought maybe you'd be nice, but you hit me really hard.
138
I did.
139
Because I'm not going to pull my punches that presidents get to propose a third term for themselves.
140
He understood that, and without animus.
141
That doesn't mean he's not going to try to do it.
142
At one point, I said to him, you're scaring people.
143
Do you really want to be scaring your own citizens so much?
144
And I know now you're all saying, and what did he say to that?
145
Honestly, I don't remember.
146
But it wasn't, okay, I'll stop.
147
So MAGA fans, don't worry.
148
Your boy gave me nothing.
149
Just hats.
150
Hats in a very generous amount of time and a willingness to listen and accept me as a possible friend, even though I'm not MAGA, which was the point of the dinner.
151
My favorite part of the whole night was we were standing in the blowjob room.
152
We were.
153
And he said, you know, I've heard from a lot of people who really like that we're having this dinner.
154
Not all, but a lot.
155
And I said, same.
156
A lot of people told me they loved it, but not all.
157
And we agreed.
158
The people who don't even want us to talk, we don't like you.
159
don't talk as opposed to what?
160
Writing the same editorial for the millionth time and making 25 hour speeches into the wind?
161
Really?
162
That's what liberals have?
163
He takes the piss out of everybody else and we can hold ours?
164
Okay, that's my report.
165
You can hate me for it, but I'm not a liar.
166
Trump was gracious and measured.
167
And why he isn't that in other settings, I don't know.
168
And I can't answer and it's not my place to answer.
169
I'm just telling you what I saw, and I wasn't high.
170
Damn, missed opportunity.
171
Thank you.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
