Bill Maher opened his new episode of “Real Time” Friday night by addressing Trump’s 1,300-word social media tirade against him following their White House dinner earlier this month, with the comic comparing the president to Taylor Swift.

Following a sit-down interview with Republican Senator Ted Cruz, who was busy hawking his new book on Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, Maher welcomed his panel — Jim VandeHei, the co-founder and CEO of Axios, and Kid Rock, a singer who once rapped, “Young ladies, young ladies, I like ‘em underage, see / Some say that’s statutory — but I say it’s mandatory.”
