The former late-night host, who’s still sporting that impressively bushy retirement beard, had a lot to say. “I can’t stop talking.”Letterman and the president have some history, given that Trump was on Letterman’s show a number of times, and the late-night host loved to needle the businessman. During one interview in 2012, Letterman put Trump in the hot seat by pointing out that a lot of Trump brand clothing is made in China — a country Trump had just been complaining about, saying it would inevitably surpass the United States as the world economic leader. In the New York interview, Letterman talked about how he shied away from politics during his early years. “I don’t want to criticize Jimmy Fallon, but I can only tell you what I would have done in that situation: I would have gone to work on Trump,” Letterman said.
