In a recent interview, President Trump expressed his admiration for comedian Shane Gillis, indicating he appreciates those he believes share his views. Gillis is set to host "Saturday Night Live" for a second time, following prior controversy. They met briefly at the Super Bowl, where Gillis described the austere environment. Meanwhile, in a broader conversation about comedy, host Ben Domenech noted Trump's impact on cultural discourse, suggesting that comedians feel liberated to express themselves under Trump’s influence, as highlighted by an incident involving a racially charged joke during a prior event.
Trump expressed his support for Gillis, stating, "I like him, and I like everybody that's on my side. You know, I'm just old-fashioned in that way."
Gillis described his brief encounter with Trump at the Super Bowl saying, "I finally had the moment - quick handshake. I was pretty sure Trump has no idea who I am."
