Comedian Larry David is blasting President Donald Trump’s celebration of the nation’s 250th anniversary with a White House UFC fight, adding that the event made him feel "embarrassed to be an American."
In an interview with Variety, David had harsh words for the president.
"It was a travesty," David told the outlet, referring to Trump’s UFC fight. "What else can you say about it?"
The 78-year-old comic went on to express how he is feeling unpatriotic in light of the event.
