Bill Maher, who is a Harvard alum, shaded the institution in a Friday, May 30, episode of Real Time With Bill Maher.
"Trump has declared full-scale war on Harvard, and like so many things he does, there's a kernel of a good idea there," Maher said, referring to how the Trump administration is fighting to take away the university's ability to educate international students.
"I've been s****** on Harvard long before he was," Maher added.

Donald Trump accused Harvard of fueling antisemitism on campus despite the president's anti-DEI efforts.
"It's because Harvard is an a**hole factory in a lot of ways that produces smirking f*** faces," Bill Maher declared.

While complaining about Harvard, CNN anchor Jake Tapper, who was also in the episode, noted that panelist Congressman Seth Moulton was also a graduate of Harvard.
"He has three degrees from Harvard," Tapper pointed out. "He's a f*** face times three."

Bill Maher previously met with Donald Trump for dinner and claimed the president was "different" than how he has been depicted by left-leaning media.
"The guy I met is not the person who, the night before, s*** tweeted a bunch of nasty c*** about how he thought this dinner was a bad idea, and what a deranged a**hole I was," Maher revealed.
