President Donald Trump launched into a near 500-word spiel Saturday to voice his regret over having hosted comedian Bill Maher at the White House, calling the television host a “jerk” who displayed “zero confidence” during their recent time together.

Writing on his social media platform Truth Social, Trump said that Maher came to the White House recently for dinner at the request of a mutual friend, and that Maher’s behavior was “much different” than what he expected.

“He was extremely nervous, had ZERO confidence in himself and, to soothe his nerves, immediately, within seconds, asked for a ‘Vodka Tonic,’” Trump wrote.

“He said to me, ‘I’ve never felt like this before, I’m actually scared.’ In one respect, it was somewhat endearing! Anyway, we had a great dinner, it was quick, easy, and he seemed to be a nice guy and, for his first show after our dinner, he was very respectful about our meeting.”

However, watching the most recent episode of Maher’s show, “Real Time With Bill Maher,” Trump apparently wasn’t amused.

“In any event, it was a total waste of time for me to have this jerk at the White House and last night,” Trump wrote.

“Fortunately, his Television Ratings are so low that nobody will learn about his various Fake News statements about me. He is no different than Kimmel, Fallon, or Colbert but, I must admit, slightly more talented!”
