A podcast host interviewing Donald Trump openly mocked him in a recent sit-down, at one point breaking into an intense fit of giggles when the former president referred to himself as “basically a truthful person.”
Comedian Andrew Schulz and his co-host Akaash Singh spent the better part of a brutal 90 minutes roasting Trump on an episode of their podcast Flagrant.
At one point in the discussion, Trump launched a broadside against his Democratic opponent, saying that Vice President Kamala Harris’ ads against him were full of lies.

He insisted her team was twisting his views on in-vitro fertilization and his recent use of the word “bloodbath” while discussing the economy.
The former president opined that there should be a law against falsehoods in campaign ads. (The Federal Communications Commission does not require political candidates to tell the truth in their ads, leaving it up to the broadcasters who air them to fact-check their claims.)
Trump added that he wouldn’t match Harris’ attacks in kind because he’s “basically a truthful person.”
“I always refer back to the simplicity of McDonald’s. You lied about McDonald’s. You lied about many things, and she’s a liar,” Trump said of Harris.
“You—there should be some kind of a rule when they know it’s a lie, you can’t do a commercial on it. But this is a thing that’s going to end in 29 days so they can say what they want. I have a hard time doing it to them because I’m basically, you know, I’m basically a truthful person.”
Schulz then burst out laughing in Trump’s face as he tried to continue, with Schulz gasping out, “What does that mean? What does that mean?”
Trump responded: “She’s given me so much ammunition, I don’t have to. She’s a radical left lunatic who will destroy our nation.”
