In this clip from Late Night with Seth Myers, comedian Maria Bamford talks about how she tried to take out a restraining order against “the unregistered sex offender in the White House.” She said she felt unsafe having such a person in the Oval Office.
She says she “went down to the local courthouse. Saw a judge within a half hour. He denied me. Ultimately a useless gesture that didn’t further the conversation in any way and wasted the time of caring professionals.”
There are some other funny and heartwarming moments during the interview. Like, Maria picks people on Twitter and then meets up with them at Dunkin’ Donuts to workshop her comedy. She also talks about the comedy special she did in front of an audience of two: her parents. And she talks about her show “What’s Your Ailment?,” where she talks, mainly to celebrities and fellow comedians, about dealing with mental health issues, something that Maria has very openly and courageously struggled with.
