In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, the 41-year-old comedian talked about the Democratic National Convention and criticized the Republican presidential nominee and those Bernie Sanders supporters who are still refusing to back Hillary Clinton.

“Bernie supporters who are like, ‘We aren’t going to support Hillary,'” Handler said. “Well, really? Then you’re supporting Donald Trump.” (RELATED: Chelsea Handler: ‘Being Politically Correct Isn’t Working For America’)
“That’s not an option,” she added. “He’s not an option. He’s a child that is in love with himself and that is not anything that’s going to be representative to the international community or represented historically.”
Handler continued to critique “Bernie or Bust” supporters at the DNC convention.
“Why would they do this,” she said. “Knowing what’s at stake? I don’t know.”
“I understand that people are frustrated,” she continued. “There’s levels of frustration: the lower class, the middle class, the upper class. Everyone’s got their frustration.”
“I think the broader message is: If Bernie came together with Hillary, then that’s all his followers should be concerned about,” she said. “And vice-versa. I would have done the same if Bernie had won and Hillary had joined his party.”
“We’re all supposed to be on the same side here — to make something cohesive and make movement.”
