In it, he humorously recounted a chaotic visit to Atlantic City, describing the scene as resembling “The Wizard of Oz on acid,” before likening Trump to the wizard himself, saying, “Donald Trump is the Wizard of Oz. He plays Monopoly with real f**king buildings. This is a scary man.” At the time, Trump was best known for his business ventures and failed casino empire in Atlantic City, including Trump Plaza and the Trump Taj Mahal. Williams continued to poke fun at Trump’s pageant ownership, drawing a controversial comparison by saying, “Isn’t that a bit like Michael Vick owning a series of pet stores?”—a reference to Vick’s infamous dogfighting scandal. He also mocked Trump’s signature hairstyle, joking that the hair had a life of its own and that Trump’s body merely served as its maintenance system.
Perhaps most cutting was his remark on Trump’s unsettling comments about his daughter Ivanka, which Williams said were so inappropriate that “even people in Arkansas went, ‘That’s f**king wrong.’” Social media users have been quick to praise the clip, saying it shows just how insightful Williams was even before Trump’s political rise. Many expressed how much they miss the comedian’s voice, calling him not only a comedic genius but someone who had a deep understanding of human behavior. One commenter noted, “He was one of a kind,” while another added, “His absence is still deeply felt today.” The clip has sparked widespread reflection and admiration, reminding people once again of Robin Williams’ brilliance, timing, and enduring relevance.
