Larry David’s satirical *New York Times* essay, “My Dinner With Adolf,” implicitly criticizes Bill Maher’s recent dinner with Donald Trump. David’s fictional encounter with Hitler parallels Maher’s experience, highlighting the dangers of seeking common ground with authoritarian figures. The essay satirizes the attempt to humanize a leader with a history of harmful actions, showcasing a naive belief in the possibility of finding shared values that overshadows grave moral concerns. Ultimately, David’s piece serves as a pointed rebuke of Maher’s actions, ending with a darkly humorous surrender to the manipulative charm of evil.

Bill Maher’s recent White House visit, which included a private tour with President Trump and Steve Bannon, led to Maher’s surprisingly positive assessment of the president. This sparked debate, with some interpreting Maher’s experience as evidence of Trump’s ability to present a facade of normalcy, while others dismissed it as delusion. The article further highlights Trump’s increasingly authoritarian actions, including defying court orders, silencing critical voices, and cozying up to authoritarian leaders like El Salvador’s President Bukele. These actions, coupled with the escalating political climate and economic downturn, paint a grim picture of the Trump administration. The author ultimately expresses deep concern over Trump’s behavior and its implications for American democracy.
