Chuck Lorre's remarks about President Donald Trump at a Los Angeles charity gala have drawn a White House response. The creator of The Big Bang Theory and Two and a Half Men called Trump a "bloated orange piece of s--- in the White House" during Project Angel Food's Sept. 26 Angel Awards, according to Entertainment Weekly.
White House spokesperson Davis Ingle told Fox News Digital that Lorre should "seek psychiatric help," accusing him of "Trump Derangement Syndrome." TheWrap reported the reply on Oct. 3.
The gala took place at The Chuck Lorre Family Foundation Kitchen & Campus. Project Angel Food's meal program serves seriously ill people across Los Angeles County at no cost to clients, with dietitians and chefs developing menus around their medical needs.
Director Nikki Lorre presented her father with the Founders Angel Award, the organization's highest honor. The nonprofit says it has bestowed the award only once before, on founder Marianne Williamson and her co-founders.
In the political portion of his speech, Lorre said he wanted a government that prioritized citizens' health and welfare. He also made jokes about Trump's health and directed personal insults at first lady Melania Trump, according to TheWrap's account.
