Watch: David Letterman Comes Out Of Retirement To Mock Donald Trump With Hysterical New Top 10 List
David Letterman surprised a lot of fans when he showed up onstage with Steve Martin and Martin Short, to do what he does best!
A San Antonio, Texas audience enjoying Martin Short and Steve Martin’s “A Very Stupid Conversation” Friday night were shocked and delighted when David Letterman unexpectedly showed up on stage. The former “Late Show” host briefly came out of retirement to chat with Martin and Short and to lament retiring before the 2016 elections.

“I retired and… I had no regrets,” Letterman told howling fans. “None. I was happy. I’ll make actual friends. I was complacent, I was satisfied, I was content. And then a couple of days ago, Donald Trump said he was running for president,” Letterman quipped. “I have made the biggest mistake of my life, I tell you.”
Letterman pulled out an envelope from his jacket.
“Every suit I own comes with a Top Ten list,” Letterman told the crowd.
He then launched into his “Interesting Facts About Donald Trump.”
“Number 10: Send him to Texas!,” Letterman began, only to reject that one. “Number 10: That thing on his head was the gopher in Caddyshack.”
“Number 9: During sex, Donald Trump calls out his own name.”
Take a look – the actual Top 10 List starts at about the 3:30 mark:
