Frasier star Kelsey Grammer gave an interview detailing a recent meeting with US president Donald Trump, describing the controversial Republican leader as “all the things you want a president to be”.
Grammer, who is often described as one of the highest-profile Republicans in Hollywood, was interviewed by TMZduring a recent trip to Washington, DC.
The 71-year-old sitcom star was in town for the release of his new film, Young Washington, in which he plays the historical figure Thomas Fairfax, a friend of Washington and British Loyalist.
Asked about his experience visiting the White House, Grammer responded that he and Trump “hang all the time”.
“There’s always a quality of respect for the fact that the office is as important as it is,” he said.
“And the man is affable, comfortable in the place he’s in at this time – but also entertaining, charming, and all the things you want a president to be. [It’s] good convo, good times.”
Grammer claimed that much of their discussion concerned the arrangement of portraits within the White House.

“You know, ‘Do you think Reagan should be over here, or Washington over there?’ Mostly, it's just agreed that Washington should be over the fireplace.”
The actor, who rose to fame playing erudite psychiatrist Frasier Crane on the hit sitcom Cheers (and its long-running spinoff) was also asked about speculated intentions to run for office, and whether he discussed that with the sitting president.
“I’m not sure where that was [said],” Grammer replied. “I know somebody said, ‘Did you ever think about it?’ I have thought about it in the past... [but] it’s not something I’m hatching as we speak.

“There’s some real benefits to [being an actor],” he continued, “but I’m still saddled with this idea that I’m supposed to serve my country in some way. It used to look like military service, but I didn’t end up doing it.”
Grammer’s support of Trump has been a contentious subject in the past.
In 2023, when the actor was doing interviews to promote the Frasier revival for Paramount+, the BBC claimed that Grammer had been prevented from answering about Trump by a PR.
While appearing on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme , Grammer was asked if he was still supporting Trump. In response, he said: “I am and I’ll let that be the end of it.”
According to BBC interviewer Justin Webb, Grammer was “perfectly happy” to continue the conversation, but interventions from the PR team at Paramount+ put an end to it.
