Bill Maher Gushes Over Jim Carrey's Anti-Trump Painting 'Wicked Witch of the West Wing'

While Carrey described the painting that Maher claimed to have bought at a gallery showing a “picture of baby Dumb Dumb,” Maher swooned: “You’re so political with your painting...I love that I bought this and it’s going to get me a lot of money someday.” Carrey talked about some of the paintings that he “can’t put out there,” which supposedly include a painting of “the Lincoln monument with a shotgun shooting himself.”

To Maher's dismay, he pondered what Carrey would do if Trump ended up losing and instead of answering, Carrey melted down over the “megalomaniacal lunatic traitor” Trump before claiming without any shred of evidence or sanity: “We’re in actual mortal danger.” He added: “I sit back and I look at Trump and I go, ‘for God’s sakes, can’t we see this for what it is? It’s a heist.”

With Maher giggling, Carrey continued: “His entire life is focused towards creating chaos...That’s an agenda set by someone else, by a foreign power. And he’s doing quite well with that agenda.” When Maher declared that “a lot of what he does looks like performance art,” Carrey explained that he disagreed.

The comedian opined that the "wounded, wounded being" wasn't “smart enough to do performance art.” At this point, even Maher appeared to have had enough of Carrey’s relentless Trump-bashing, urging his guest to talk about his new book instead: “Let’s not let Donald Trump hijack all of your time here when it’s really about your book.”
