US TV producer Chuck Lorre insults President Trump and First Lady at Los Angeles charity event

At a charity gala in Los Angeles, CBS producer Chuck Lorre, creator of 'The Big Bang Theory,' used his acceptance speech to insult President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump. He called the President a 'bloated orange piece of shit' and the First Lady a 'Yugoslavian escort.' The White House responded by saying Lorre should seek psychiatric help. This is not the first time Lorre has attacked Trump; he has made similar comments in the past. The First Lady has previously faced and fought similar defamatory claims.
