"And he went, ‘It’s the water. What do you want me to do, swim there?’ And I was like, exactly. F*ck right. You’re exactly right. It’s a stupid question. And you got just the answer you deserve."

Fuck them. I didn't hear a peep when Biden didn't show up in Palestine.

The left wing media like Peggy, I mean.

Joe Bar said...

Well, I LOLed.

Lawnerd said...

Maher sounding more reasonable by the day. Common sense is winning the day.

Jimmy said...

When Maher has had enough of the bs, maybe things can change. He has spent his entire TV time promoting, supporting, and shilling for the left. What exists now is partially his creation, or at least what he supported.

Peachy said...

The same people who would have cheered a successful Black rock AD punk - who was paid to kill Trump (virtually all MSNBC/NPR/PBS newz loyalists) would like Trump to drown.
If Trump doesn't agree to swim to the crash site- he's a racist.

They could've played the clip of Trump saying that, and it would've been much funnier. The reporter who asked the stupid question was just trying to play gotcha with Trump. And got Trump's response.

Is that Noonan in the clip? IRC, she refused to support trump against Harris, Hillary, or Biden. reason given? Trump's character. Too many tweets. Too vulgar, my dear. Some "Reagan Republican". LOL. She still defends Dan Rather and talks about Rather being a "Tough Marine" despite the fact that Rather got kicked out of boot camp.

William said...

Well, that's funny. Thanks for the post. New Yorkers are gonna be New Yorkers.

If Maher is going to position himself as the "man in the middle" looking down on partisans he'll have to defend his record of trashing Trump and supporting the D's for the last 9 years. He's implied Trump was a fascist and Neo-nazi.

But like many on the left, he's walking all that back. Wonder why.

A libertine lacks common sense.

Old and slow said...

Perhaps his opinions have evolved with the times. This is a good thing.

If Maher is going to fakely position himself as the "man in the middle" looking down on partisans...

FIFY

Maher will have lots of local competition for that role from Earnest Prole.

Paul Zrimsek said...

They want him to hop in Marine 1 and head down to the shoreline. If there's one thing that airspace needs, it's more helicopters.

NorthOfTheOneOhOne said...

Yeah, it's a gotcha and a stupid one. We all know Biden wouldn't have gone down there and you can bet Obama wouldn't have either.

Big Mike said...

@Paul Zrimsek, I would say instead that the last thing the divers and their support workers trying to recover bodies and the black (actually orange) boxes need is the interruption a Presidential visit entails.

Also Reagan National just reopened 48 hours ago. If Trump were to fly over in Marine 1 the airspace would have to be closed again. They don’t need that.

Wince said...

We all enjoyed Al Jaffee’s “Snappy Answers to Stupid Questions” in MAD Magazine?

Ice Nine said...

Yeah, Mahar is a liberal. He is also an iconoclast, has some common sense, and has been annoying liberals with that for many years.

Tank said...

And yet, in four years, Bill will vote for whoever the democrat nominee is.

Jay said...

Solid dyed in the wool democrats finally admitting the looney left is destroying the party is not evidence they have returned to sanity and the centre.

DINKY DAU 45 said...

Dufus! too fat to swim Im sure ,all you do is show up and meet with the people, cmon man!

wendybar said...

Exactly. He meets with the people. What a President SHOULD do. What Joe Biden refused to do. What was his excuse for not going to Palestine?? Too tired from his vacations??

RCOCEAN II said...

Its always pathetic to see how Rightwingers and those on the Center-Right will twist themselves in knots trying to persuade themselves that leftwing celebrity, comedian, actors, singer, whatever is *really* conservative. He's changed! He's Seen the light!

Look, he said blah, blah. Gosh, now I can watch him and like him. He's one of us! Any little crumb these leftist celebrities toss their way is snapped up.

Bill Maher started his show claiming to be a "libertarian" and "politically incorrect" but it soon became clear he was just a far-left Democrat who liked Israel, low taxes, and legal hookers & cocaine. He was at the forefront of sugggesting Trump was a "Nazi" and a "Threat to Democracy" in 2016.

This is just a tactical retreat on a minor issue. When Trump does something that really goes against the Party line, Maher will be trashing him with a vengance.
