Comedian Bill Maher asserted that his friendship with “Curb Your Enthusiasm” creator Larry David was over during an interview with The Free Press posted to YouTube on Monday.
Maher attended a dinner at the White House with President Donald Trump in March, prompting David to write a satirical New York Times op-ed in April, likening the comedian’s dinner to dining with Adolf Hitler. The Free Press’ Maya Sulkin asked Maher during the interview if he had lost friends due to his commentary.

“Fuck yeah,” Maher responded, adding, “Larry David certainly is not really my friend anymore.”
Sulkin asked if he had spoken to David since his NYT op-ed.
“No, I said my piece on my last show … I put him in my last editorial right before Thanksgiving, our last show,” Maher told her.
Maher ridiculed David on a Nov. 21 episode of HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher,” saying his former friend had rejected his annual invitations to appear on the show, citing his lack of political knowledge. “Yeah, I get that now,” Maher quipped.
