Letterman skewers Trump with Top 10 in surprise Texas appearance

Friday night, a bearded David Letterman made an unannounced cameo at Steve Martin and Martin Short's show at the Majestic Theater in San Antonio to read a Top 10 list about Donald Trump. "I am so happy to be out of the house," he said to cheers. Why is he at a Martin/Short show? "Back in Hollywood we met at a Scientology mixer," he explained.

He said his retirement from television has been going well.

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

Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a sheet of paper and explained, "Every suit I own comes with a Top 10 list."
