During a recent episode of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, Kid Rock entertained viewers with a light-hearted story involving President Donald Trump. The discussion quickly turned to Kid Rock’s experiences with the president, especially his memorable golf outing.
Maher prompted Kid Rock, asking, “What’s something about him that people would be surprised to learn?” He referred specifically to the entertaining anecdote about a call with French President Emmanuel Macron.
Kid Rock recalled the golf outing: “Oh yeah, that was funny. The guy’s taking calls all day. He works while golfing, which is impressive. He hardly gets any sleep.”
He then detailed how the interaction unfolded on the golf course. “Macron calls, and he’s like, ‘Hey, you’re with the great Kid Rock!’ So, Trump hands me the phone.”
To the amusement of everyone, Kid Rock asserted himself saying, “Hello, Mr. President. I’m from the Paris of the Midwest, Détroit.” And then, he humorously noted that Trump just drove off!
As Kid Rock delivered the punchline, Maher erupted in laughter, echoing the joy shared by the audience. The humorous exchange brought hearty laughs from everyone present.
