Breitbart: HBO host Bill Maher scolded radical, left-wing actor Sean Penn for meeting with dictators but refusing to meet with President Donald Trump.

Penn visited with Maher on the latter’s Club Random podcast posted on Sunday, and as the show was winding down, Maher asked Penn if he still refuses to take a meeting with President Donald Trump. Penn admitted that he would still refuse and even said he wished Maher had said less about his own visit with the president. Maher was shocked that Penn would take meetings with multiple socialist dictators, yet wouldn’t meet with the democratically elected president of the United States.

“But you do, I hope, think I did the right thing to have dinner with him,” Maher asked Penn late in their discussion.

In reply, Penn rambled about how “smart” Maher is, but didn’t really answer the question. Although, he did seem to be upset that Trump was “successful” by even having Maher attend.

Maher disagreed that Trump was the one “successful,” though.

“Well, it was less successful, because I never stopped saying all the things I’ve always said about him. It would have been successful if he had somehow seduced me into supporting him,” Maher pointed out.
