Letterman Comes Out Of Retirement For A Donald Trump Top 10 List

(CBS Detroit) Explaining that it was his first day in the world of entertainment, CBS' former venerable "Tonight Show" host David Letterman crashed a show in Texas by his friends Steve Martin and Martin Short.

He apparently heard Donald Trump was running for president and just couldn't resist sending up the millionaire developer and TV personality who stumbled into controversy -- again -- with views on immigration that some considered racist.

"I'm so happy to be out of the house," Letterman tells the audience, explaining he was happy and content until he heard Trump was running for president and realized this:

"I have made the biggest mistake of my life, ladies and gentlemen," he said.

A bearded and relaxed-looking Letterman went on to rattle off a top 10 list of "interesting facts" about Trump, including these gems:

  • "That  thing on his head was the gopher on 'Caddyshack.'"
  • "During sex he yells out his own name."
  • "He looks like the guy on the life boat with women and children."
  • "Trump would like all Americans to know that thing on his head is free range."
  • "That's not a hair 'do, it's a wind advisory."
