Larry David compared President Trump to communist dictator Joseph Stalin during a wide-ranging
interview with the comedian and “Curb Your Enthusiasm” star published Saturday.
The creator of both “Curb” and fellow hit TV series “Seinfeld” slammed Mr. Trump while speaking to The New York Times about subjects including the president’s response to the ongoing global coronavirus pandemic and the Democrats seeking to unseat him.
“The man has not one redeeming quality,” Mr. David said Mr. Trump, The Times reported. “You could take some of the worst dictators in history and I’m sure that all of them, you could find one decent quality. Stalin could have had one decent quality, we don’t know!”.
Mr. David, 72, complained elsewhere in the interview about remarks Mr. Trump has made recently during the regular press briefings held by the White House Coronavirus Task Force.
“That’s the hardest thing about the day, watching what comes out of this guy’s mouth,” said Mr. David. “It turns you into a maniac because you’re yelling at the television. All of a sudden, you find yourself screaming like I used to do on the streets of New York, pre-‘Seinfeld,’ when I saw happy couples on the street.”
Mr. David also told The Times that he thinks Sen. Bernard Sanders, the Democratic presidential hopeful he has parodied repeatedly in comedy skits on “Saturday Night Live,” should end his White House campaign and let rival candidate Joseph R. Biden run unchallenged as the party’s presumptive nominee against Mr. Trump.
“I feel he should drop out,” Mr. David said about Mr. Sanders, Vermont independent, The Times reported. “Because he’s too far behind. He can’t get the nomination. And I think, you know, it’s no time to fool around here. Everybody’s got to support Biden.” (The Washington Times)
