President Donald Trump called Kid Rock ‘Bob’ during a meeting at the White House. In a headline-grabbing moment, Kid Rock opened up about a recent private dinner he arranged between former President Donald Trump and comedian Bill Maher. Appearing on Fox News’ “Hannity,” the musician shared behind-the-scenes details of the unlikely meeting, which also included UFC CEO Dana White.
Kid Rock described the evening as surprisingly cordial, with all parties choosing to focus on common ground rather than political differences. “We basically stuck to things we agreed on,” he said. Despite Maher’s long history of criticizing Trump, the mood was respectful and intellectually charged. Kid Rock noted that both men have “extremely deep knowledge of American history” and were more alike than different in some surprising ways.
A notable moment came when Maher voiced concern over Trump potentially seeking a third term—an idea that Maher reportedly finds deeply troubling. Kid Rock acknowledged the topic came up but kept some details private out of respect for the participants.
The group also enjoyed a rare tour of the White House residence, including a stop in the Lincoln Bedroom. Kid Rock ended the segment by encouraging Americans to find common ground, saying, “If they can do it, maybe we all can.”
