Showing Original Post only (View all)Bill Maher Rails Against Woke Left 'Crazies' Within the Democratic Party [View all]

Bill Maher at The Improv in Hollywood in the early 1980’s.(From Bill Maher)
Bill Maher made it clear how he feels about the “crazies” within the Democratic Party in an interview with the Wall Street Journal on Saturday.
When asked why he mocks the left more than he used to, he responded, “You’re damn right I do, because you give me more material. I’m a comedian. I’m going to go where the gold is."
In Maher’s final statement of the interview, as if he were addressing Vice President Kamala Harris herself, he stated, “You lost a crazy contest to an actual crazy person. Congratulations.”

This Ivy League elitist had more breaks than 90% of the US population. Maher's HBO salary is $10 million per year and his net worth is reputed at $140 million. Our pains are his gains. Of course Maher said in the interview that the country doesn't need a revolution, but a "colonic."
That 'colonic' should start with him, Joe Rogan, and other TV and Podcast pill-pushing elitists who keep Americans distracted and divided, keeping the status quo and their fortunes safe and secure for their families. If Bill Maher has children, bet on it they will enjoy an Ivy League education without being burdened by massive school loans.

Thank you, Paladin. I don't watch TV, but I recognize bad intentions when I read about it.

Bill Maher has entered the Lenny Bruce period of his life and beginning to sound more like Ron DeSantis

Hi PlanetBev: I didn't realize his TV show was still on. This was an interview he gave to the WSJ.

And this TV elitist continues to make a fortune off the masses while laughing at us on his way to the bank.

I guess he doesn't like us minority groups acting as if we have the same right to demand equal justice as

This is probably the first time I ever wrote an OP on this "person" and hopefully the last.

Hi Blue Tires: The esteemed Wall Street Journal interviewed him as if he doesn't get enough air time.

Concur. I never understood his appeal and ignored him until today. But he has an audience, like Joe Rogan.

Happy New Year FakeNoose. I can't believe he gets liberals or Democrats on his HBO show.
