Trump articulates a nuanced position about Bill Maher.
"Bill Maher’s ratings are so low that it is hard to believe his show can continue. In many ways it’s SAD because, in actuality, I like him. Republicans should stop using him as a sounding board, however. It makes them look sooo weak and foolish!"Link to Truth Social.I think he's reacting to the Republican enthusiasm for this recent Maher outburst:Or is it this:

The good Bill Maher.
When he's good- he's good.
The Better Bill Maher
Say what you will about George Santos, his line about being "Jew-ish" was worthy of Larry David.
Maher spent his entire career pushing the leftist agenda. Now he realizes he, and they are full of crap.
He's still a typical leftist apparatchik. Most of what he is doing now is clickbait, trying to be seen.
Maher’s been saddled with a face only a blind mother could love.
As for Maher's "low ratings":
Current Viewership: Bill Maher's live audience metrics for Real Time with Bill Maher have held steady, hovering near the 490,000 mark for live linear broadcasts, alongside additional viewership on streaming and delayed viewing.
…there are incredibly mediocre YouTube videos that garner a million views in a matter of hours. He’s in because they believes he serves some purpose. Maybe the bosses don’t watch and assume he’’s still preaching leftie propaganda…
Reminds of the "failing New York Times that the MAGAS eat up when espoused whenever they say something about the trump fella. Facts are, Trump began regularly appending "failing" to The New York Times name on social media during his 2016 presidential campaign and throughout his first term, a habit he has maintained for more than ten years.: He frequently revives the label whenever the outlet publishes critical reporting, opinion pieces, or investigative articles regarding his administration, health, legal battles, or political standing. The Reality of the Publication's Finances: while print subscriptions have faced standard industry declines, The New York Times Company has experienced massive overall growth over that same ten-year span, adding millions of digital subscribers and remaining profitable, directly contradicting the "failing" descriptor. You know ART OF THE STEAL keep saying it over and over and the minions will sing it out. Pretty easy to fact check instead of just parroting what the fella says. When you elect a court adjudicated felon with obsessive and compulsive behavior this is what you get and what you sign on to.
Ma6be he's fucking somebody to keep the show on?
Today's version of Dinky Dau will be played by Joy Behar.

"760,000 ObamaCare enrollees had no Social Security or immigration numbers, paid no premiums and filed no medical claims. Yet taxpayers were footing their bills. ObamaCare has a fraud problem, not a coverage problem. Glad to see the Trump administration cleaning up the mess."
Oh but Trump is so icky!
WE want more fraud!
This will give Mahar some cover and help cement his position as a moderate. And Trump knows that. It might even help boost Bill's ratings.
Well, it’s complicated. A Washington Examiner opinion piece notes the quick release leaves room for 13 more days of detention if more evidence turns up, and names Iran as the primary suspect. It also raises the possibility the explosives were neutralized at some point by counterterrorism police. With all that in mind, I don’t think the woman mistook 5 men for 10. Maybe some got away, or maybe the others were undercover operatives.
Are British security forces losing control? Maybe not, but they look stretched. Either MI5 was watching and the local police got there first, or nobody was watching and a farmer saved the day. Neither is reassuring. Meanwhile the BBC says it wasn’t intelligence-led, and Trump says “we had them under view for a long time.” And if the men who ran are never mentioned again, that won’t be reassuring either. It’ll look like a cover-up.
What’s clear is that nothing is clear. Great fodder for conspiracy theories, and I suppose all part of the Great Game.
Sorry, posted to the wrong thread.
Even when Maher is right it's not always for the right reason.
