Donald Trump/an orangutan.

He’s not monkeying around. Bill Maher is doubling down on one of the “new rules” he introduced during his HBO program “Real Time” last year in which he declared that Donald Trump is the spawn of a human and an orangutan. The comedian says he is now prepared to write a check for $5 million to the charity of Trump’s choice, if the billionaire real estate mogul can prove he’s not an ape.

“Look, I’m not looking for a feud with Donald Trump and I certainly only wish the best for the syphilitic monkey who does his Twitter feed,” Maher joked on “The Tonight Show” on Monday before offering to donate money to any charity Trump chose, be it the “Hair Club for Men, the Institute for Incorrigible Douchebaggery, whatever charity.”

Although a few months late in the game, Maher was obviously making fun of Trump’s ridiculous million-dollar offer to President Obama right before the election.
