Comedian Andrew Schulz has admitted to feeling disillusioned with President Donald Trump, saying he’s doing “the exact opposite of everything I voted for.”
On Thursday’s episode of his Flagrant podcast, the 41-year-old stand-up comic aired his frustrations with the current administration.
“Everything he campaigned on I believe he wanted to do, and now he’s doing the exact opposite thing of every single f***ing thing,” Schulz said.
“There’ll be people that they’ll DM me like, ‘You see what your boy’s doing? You voted for this.’ I’m like, ‘I voted for none of this,’” he continued.
“He’s doing the exact opposite of everything I voted for. I want him to stop the wars — he’s funding them. I want him to shrink spending, reduce the budget — he’s increasing it. It’s like everything that he said he’s going to do — except sending immigrants back, and now he’s even flip-flopped on that, which I kind of like.”
While Schulz insisted that he’s not naive to the fact that most politicians don’t “do most of the s*** they say,” he said: “I don’t want to be too cynical, but now I’m getting to the point where it’s like, ‘Can they do anything?’”
The Republican politician previously appeared on Schulz’s podcast in October amid his 2024 campaign. During the episode, the host questioned Trump on his stance on abortion and access to IVF.
Schulz came under fire for welcoming Trump as a guest; however, in March, he denied that having him on the podcast was any sort of endorsement.
“I don’t believe in endorsing candidates. I’m a comedian. And I didn’t want to go to the inauguration either. They were very kind to invite me, but it wasn’t for me,” he told The Daily Beast.

“What I’ve realized is, you’ve gotta have empathy for how people see you based on the way that we consume information,” Schulz said. “You can’t be angry that people didn’t do an eight-hour deep dive and find out exactly how nuanced you are and like what your thought process is.”
Insisting that he isn’t a “MAGA lunatic,” like some fans accuse him of being, he said: “I grew up in a f***ing dance family and an arts family in New York City. Do you really think I’ve been right-wing my entire life? No, I’ve been a Democrat my entire life.”
He added that he didn’t think his interview impacted the outcome of the election.
“I think that America had made their mind up, and I think that a lot of people assumed that the vote for Trump was because he’s this populist superstar that everybody loves and they’re obsessed with,” Schulz explained.
“And I think what they’re not calculating is, there are a lot of people that were unhappy with the status quo and they were voting to reject the current administration, which seemingly was saying that they weren’t going to make any changes.”
