Tonight on Larry David's new show on HBO Max, Larry David bashed Trump on George Washington's farewell address.

Rob Reiner as George Washington gave his farewell address where he declined to run for a third term.

Then Larry David as a citizen listed a bunch of What ifs .

Jimmy Kimmel also made a cameo.

There was a dedication to Rob Reiner at the end of the show.

“Well, what if there’s some asshole in office, some narcissistic prick who doesn’t follow the Constitution?” asks Larry David, dressed in 1700s colonial attire. And the sketch turns into a long bashing session of you-know-who.

Reiner’s Washington stresses the importance of the peaceful transfer of power, and Larry says any hypothetical future president who can’t admit he lost an election is a “sociopath” and “insecure, lying asshole who would even cheat at golf.”

“He could use the presidency to enrich himself and his family. He could send troops into American cities to terrorize and even kill American citizens, all to distract from the fact that he’s friends with a pedophile!” Larry says.

1. Sounds good. Been meaning to check in on Larry's newest.

I really hope that he has left Cheryl Hines behind after Curb Your Enthusiasm - don't want to see her pop up in this new series.
