David Letterman Talks Cosby, the Beard, and Why Amy Schumer Is the New Richard Pryor

snip//


Donald Trump was a frequent guest on your show. Have you had reason to regret that?
No, no reason to regret it. I'm disappointed that this man is representing me and my country. It makes me sick. But we always looked forward to having him on. He was a great guest. He was just a big, wealthy dope who'd come on and we would make fun of his hair. I would refer to him as a slumlord. But now, this goon... I don't know. He's demonstrated himself to be a man without a core, a man without a soul. Is there a guy in there?

Do you have a theory about what might have changed?
I don't know. That's why I would love to have 90 minutes with him in a TV studio, just to talk to the guy. I would just like to say,

"All right, Don: What the fuck happened?"
