''My point is, that Donald Trump, even if you like him, is powerful enough as a past president, a likely future president and to be perfectly frank, a cult leader,' Maher said. 'America doesn't need a Demi-God.'Steven Cheung, communications director for Trump's campaign, told Newsweek via email on Saturday afternoon that 'Bill Maher is a vile s*** stain on society.'Meanwhile, Trump said that if not for God, the bullet would not have missed him.
