“Donald Trump Sues Bill Maher For $5 Million” is the headline that Donald Trump wants you to see, and wants to pass off as HUGE IMPORTANT BREAKING NEWS. Trump is claiming that Maher promised $5 million to the charity of Trump’s choice if Trump could provide certain information. Trump provided that information, and now Maher is not paying up. What Trump is less inclined to reveal, however, is WHAT the information he provided was. As you might guess, it’s a laffer.
Apparently, on The Tonight Show last month, Maher — who was making fun of Trump’s $5 million offer to President Obama to reveal his college records and passport — offered Trump $5 million if Trump could provide that a birth certificate proving that he’s not “spawn of his mother having sex with orangutan.” Maher’s argument was that the color of Trump’s hair and the color of an orangutan’s fur are the only two things in nature of that color, therefore, they must be related.
Clearly, it’s a joke, right? Not in Trump’s tiny little head.
“I don’t think he was joking. He said it with venom. That was venom. That wasn’t a joke. In fact, he was nervous when he said it. It was a pathetic delivery.”
Jesus Christ. You know what? I’d like to offer Donald Trump $5 million to a charity of his choice if he can prove that he’s not a lunatic racist, anti-intellectual sh*tbag.

I’m surprised Bill Maher hasn’t mentioned this on his show yet. I’m guessing that will change Friday night.
Maher and Trump should be shot into space. Maher gets very little criticism because he is such a flaming liberal but he is so bad
He lost a show because of criticism, I’d say he gets his fair share. That being said, I cannot fathom how you can compare these two. Sure they have their faults but the similarities end there.
They’re both talking heads of their political parties. And they both make me sick to my stomach.
Correction: They both THINK they are talking heads of their political parties.
I’m thinking neither party wants anything to do with either of these shitheads.
You are correct, David Bowies Nipple Antennae
Please let’s not turn this into a right vs left thing because I don’t want be lumped into the same group as Trump anymore than most liberals want to be lumped in with that wheezing bag of mysoginist gas.
They BOTH need to be shot into space…but they aren’t the only ones….Limbaugh, Olbermann, Beck, Ed Schultz..all need to be erased from the population
Love Maher. and Bowies Nipple, if your statement were true then Maher would never be able to book people all the high profile guests from both parties that he consistently does.
I would love to watch the court proceedings on TV. “Are you now or have you ever been a member of the orangutan family?”
It’s hard to argue against suing Bill Maher. As bad as you all think Trump is, Maher is infinitely worse.
Whatever you’re using the internet for, you’re doing it wrong.
[legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]
You have got to be kidding…. If Trump’s lawsuit is based on a claim of promissory estoppel, his lawyer should be disbarred, or at least sanctioned for bringing a frivolous lawsuit.
It’s obvious he’s doing it for publicity, as anyone who gets this suit will throw it out immediately. Probably while saying “Well obviously he was kidding, you fucking idiot”
Says there that the victim must have acted in good faith. I don’t think Donald Trump would know good faith if it donated $5,000,000 to a charity in his name.
Either way, this is going to be fun to watch if it drags on.
Doesn’t Falwell v. Flynt pretty much blow this out of the water?
I’m stunned the orangutangs didn’t sue for being compared to Trump.
Then again, they’re not the ones who spend all day throwing feces at people.
At least when orangutans do it, it’s considered a compliment.
Calling Teump an orangutan implies that he has taken a flea bath at least once…which we all know is not true.
*Trump.
Lock Trump and Maher in a room together and make them fight to the death. No matter the result, the world will be better off.
Agreed, Trump vs Maher is a race to the bottom.
This is not the first we’ve seen of the classic “venom defence”, the precedent coming from the controversial Cobra v. Mongoose trials.
Pretty much any of the left and right talking heads are in the same boat as these two jackasses.
Could the Tonight Show not find a picture of a proper orange haired orangutan? Or at least Dr. Zaius? Talk about going through the motions. Beyond lazy.
The orangutans are the true victims in this. Both should have to pay $5m to nature preserves and Trump will not be allowed to name it after himself.
You know what would make my day. If this went to court and the judge got so fed up with the literal shit-spewing coming from both sides that his judgement is to lock both of them in 2×3 airtight containers and ship em into space.
I’d give every dime I had to see that. All 7 dimes.
Second. I’ll add three dimes to make it an even dollar.
Where was Danger on this story? We need Lawyer Bros® interpretation.
I’ll give 5 million for charity if anybody shoots Trump in the head before my birthday (August 1)
