Karoline Leavitt vs Bill Maher - This Is Priceless!
00:00 And by the way, if anyone lacked etiquette at that dinner with me. Any advice for the one who didn't last quite as long as you? So is there anything that could make you, because a lot of Republicans now say we've had enough, make you not be loyal to whatever he was doing? What do you think? Am I back in the doghouse after that monologue? That was a tough monologue. Okay. So you talk a lot like him. Why?
00:25 No, I'm kidding. With mud on your feet, you're wearing these expensive. I don't know about those ones, but maybe. Clinton Jaws. Bill Maher tonight. I've been waiting for this all week. Lip-gloss Leavitt is on, and he's going to talk about the Trump dinner
00:50 with Kid Brock and Stephen A. Smith. It's Friday night. Let's smoke some cigarettes. I never drink wine until Friday. Let's watch. Yeah, I did it again, bitches. Yeah, you did. I know, I'm the bad guy because I go and say face to face to the man the things you write in articles that he'll never read.
01:13 But, okay, you know what? I like these dinners. Liberals are frequent. First of all, you're in the White House. There's just something thrilling about being announced when you're in the White House. That moment, when you're outside the Oval Office and you hear the aide say, sir, you're 7 o'clock, low-rate. writing's dummy is here. But the dinner went on for four hours, slightly longer than the press secretary hired last week.
01:45 Well, I... I kid. Well, I lasted longer on prom night. I mean... And by the way, if anyone lacked etiquette at that dinner, it was me. Yeah. I brought Stephen A. Smith. He was perfect.
01:59 On point. I give myself an A plus for choosing him. Macaroni. But me, Trump never lost his temper. I kind of, and he never yelled. He never interrupted me. I did. I could not have been treated better if I was Russian.
02:16 For most of the history of professional sports, there was a wall between the game and gambling. Then suddenly, it was everywhere. Ontario is all in on sports betting. Make every moment more with fandom. But that wasn't supposed to include the players themselves. For records for John Tate Porter is under NBA investigation
02:37 Athletes are the perfect gamblers Understood The Big Bet Available now on Spotify She is the former White House Snokesman and press secretary
02:55 Under the second Reverendistration Caroline Levitt I'm allowed to hit pause Even though it's live Guys I love this woman Lip gloss Levitt
03:04 Love it Let's do it. I knew she's going to wear black. I already. I already. I knew it. Don't we have a nice crowd here? I didn't know I had fans in Communist California, but it's good to see all of you.
03:20 So what do you think? Am I back in the dog house after that monologue? That was a tough monologue. Okay. But the president sends his regards. I'm sure he told him that was coming on the show and you said, tell him he loved that dinner and he knows it. And you admitted it. You liked it.
03:33 I do like it. It's better to tell him. talk and look let's talk about you first it's not always about him you're here let's talk about you for a minute so you talk a lot like him why no I'm kidding so what are you gonna do now well I'm on your show so that's a lot of fun okay so I start with Fox News on on November 1st so that's what you're doing so so I see now he wants to get rid of the press pool in the White House and make it into an actual swimming pool. Did you see that?
04:08 I have seen it. Yes. I have seen it. Look, it was a swimming pool at one time. In fact, if you go in the stairs underneath where the briefing room is, you can actually see the tile from where the pool used to be. So he just maybe wants to restore it to all of its glory. I don't know if he'll do it, but he's been flirting
04:24 with it. This is the one thing that people get mad at me. Here we go. Not one thing, they get mad of me in many things. At least you're honest. I don't give a shit about any of this. I like the ballroom. America does need a ballroom. that they we do yeah absolutely see united states i wouldn't you have a dinner in the grass it's a shame under a tent yeah under your feet you're wearing these expensive shoes i don't know about
04:46 those ones but maybe maybe we could come back you would screw it up anyway but i mean you were known to be very sarcastic i mean people who you know who weren't on on your team know by that time you said to somebody your mom did remember that If you met that reporter, you would be trying to insult him too. I mean, the guy sucks. But look. Oh, come on. That is awesome.
05:13 The guy sucks. There's nothing better than a conservative, sarcastic, good-looking gal. See what I mean? He gets it, and then he doesn't get it. Now, I'm an optimist. I prefer to think of the president as half sane. He's a lot more. Hey.
05:32 I can agree. He is far more sane than the last one, okay? We had a mental patient. He's far more energetic. Far more sane. That's true too, yes. I mean, okay, but then he says, like at the dinner table, it's amazing. We have a nice conversation.
05:49 He goes, you're my enemy. Pass the peas. But, I mean, he will say that. You're my enemy. And then a minute later, we're just talking normally. We don't act like enemies. And I worry that if this election goes as badly as it looks like it's going to go for him and the Republicans. We're going to have a guy who doesn't have as much power as he did,
06:12 and he's just, we know he likes vengeance. Do you worry about this last two years, what any president would call a lame duck time, even a successful presidency? What's he going to be like in that scenario? Are you a good predictor? You know what Kelsey lets you do? It lets you trade on real-world events, from who controls a Congress after midterms to major economic. decisions so you can put your predictions to the test. We all heard what's going on with Omar, right? People are saying that might not even be her real name. Trump just came out and said, hey, Congress, you need to get her out of there. On Kelsey, do you know what the markets say about her? She's got a 94% chance of winning. If you like those odds and you go against that, you bet 25 you
07:01 get 372 back. Five grand gives you over 70,000. Sometimes you look at this guys and you just Just know. You just know what's going to happen. And I look at this and I'm like, do you really think this is going to? Teller Rico, 64% chance. How about Al-Said? 68% chance. If you want to follow the midterms and see what people are predicting, check out Kelsey, using my link in the description and pin comment. Trade $25 and you'll receive $25. To get the 25, all you got to do is download the app and use code Jaws. I don't worry about it, actually. And I think, you know, We understand where history is with these midterm elections coming up, I think, in 11 days. The president does have a way of defying history. He was in the Oval Office not once but twice, and every poll said he wouldn't make it there.
07:48 So I think he's working really hard out on the road to turn Republicans out to vote. So let's wait and see before jumping to conclusions on the midterms. And I don't worry about the president. Look, he loves our country very much, and he wants to make it right. And he has said, you've heard him say this, I will work with Democrats to do what's best. You look at what he's done in D.C. with Mayor Bowser, who's a Democrat mayor, cleaned up the homelessness, cleaned up the crime. What do you say to that, Billy? Beautiful. I've lived there the past two years and saw the transportation.
08:14 All for that. Yeah. Maybe your governor should call. Maybe your mayor here should call in L.A. and California would look a lot better. If more Democrats will actually want to work with the president, he is always the type of guy who is willing to do that. And I think you've seen that yourself in the White House. To the point of me going to the White House and talking to him, I this week could not help but think a lot about Lindsay Graham. Graham. No. And the hookers? He does listen when he's in that White House.
08:45 He looks you in the eye. He never interrupts. He never gets mad. He listens. Yes. Yeah. And he surveys the room. I mean, as something that I find, you know, Admiral Bell about him is he'll look around
08:57 the room and he'll ask the opinions of everyone in it, whether it's a low-level staff or his chief of staff. I used to do that as a watch. He genuinely wants to know how people feel what they think. He takes their counsel and advice. counsel and advice and then I think he makes the best decision that he believes is best for the country in that moment. So is there anything that could make you, because a lot of Republicans now say we've had enough, make you not be loyal to whatever he was doing? Is there a principle?
09:23 Is it more important than person or is the person always more important? Well, look, you know, my relationship with the president, obviously he was my boss, but to me he's also a friend and he gave me the opportunity of a lifetime. I mean, I don't think I'd be sitting on your show. show right now if not for him giving me that chance so I'm grateful for that always will be and I've also seen him behind the scenes as you have and I know it's hard and I know he loves this country he wants to do what's right and that's who he's always been to me he's been nothing but kind uplifting encouraging he did name me the youngest press secretary ever and a lot of people told him the best shouldn't he shouldn't he told me that he said honey lots of people said you were too young
10:00 and I told them I was building buildings in Manhattan when I was your age and you can do it And I am indebted to him for that, and I am very grateful for the opportunity. Any advice for the one who didn't last quite as long as you? Look, it's a tough job. It's a very tough job. I know. People say it's one of the hardest jobs in Washington. And when you step to that podium, I give anyone who steps up to that podium credit,
10:32 because only 37 people in United States history have been the White House Press Secretary. That pressure in that room is enormous. The press are vicious. And, you know, I give her credit for standing up there. And as the president said, it wasn't a good fit, and that's okay. I wish her well. And we're on to the next, and he has a lot of options. I mean, it's a great job.
10:52 It's a fun job. And there's a lot of qualified people who want it. But one day, I mean, you know, sometimes you give up a home run at the first inning. They don't usually go to the bullpen that quick. Well, look, I mean, the president did have a hit show called the Apprentian. where he's known for, you know, moving on from people. So hey, it's in his nature to do that type of thing, I guess. Oh, well, I just hope I'm not next because a few more things I want to say.
11:18 You might be nice. I know, I appreciate you coming on here. I always do. Thank you so much. It's an honor. That's so good. All right. What do you think about that?
11:28 I thought it was awesome. She gave it to you, dude. So if there were peaceful protests on Saturday for the military parade, President Trump would allow that. Of course the president supports peaceful protest. What a stupid question. Rickal. I have now been asked and answered this question four times. Behavior of Democrats last night was completely disgraceful. That's a question you should ask the Biden. Is there any evidence on that? That he wasn't aware of it? You're a reporter. You should find out. Sean. Sorry, I'm my follow up on what you would just say. Go ahead, Philip.
11:58 I'm not taking your follow up. I have a follow up. I have a follow on something you just said, Caroline. That's Caitlin. I'm not taking your follow up. Philip, go ahead. And when it comes to the topic of hockey, it did come up. However, we're more interested in securing a peace deal than scheduling hockey games right now, Sean. And they are working on that effort every day. Reagan. Reagan. Thanks, Caroline.
12:20 And I think some of the comments that you refer to are nothing more than a failed attempt from the media and from Democrats to try to sow division in this White House. We saw them do it in the first term. We're not going to let them do it in the second term. This is a unified team who is working at the pleasure of the president to do its right for the American. I think it's insulting that you're trying to test my knowledge of economics. I'm now regret giving a question to the Associated Press.
