      @@mixedmartialanarchist6469 oh this whole thing goes back much farther then Trump. This is the slow erosion that had been taking place for decades of government doing less for the ppl and more for itself. And I'm sure all that Chinese money that has been thrown around to buy off politicians and American company's and steal our manufacturing capability just pushed it that much faster. I didn't vote for Trump in 2016 (because I generally don't vote) and I kind of thought he was a clown but he was the first president to actually call out China and that was big for me cause every other president gave them a pass. And, even though he has a narcissistic blustery personality that, I will admit, isn't ideal for a world leader his economy did well. And at the end of the day I just want lower cost of living, cheaper gas and the ability to speak my mind. I was able to have all those things under Trump. Biden has definitely raised inflation in a hurry and like Bill pointed out in the video the Democtatic party seems to have lost its collective mind.

      Bill Maher hits *half* of the nail right on the head when summing up the political mess we’re in right now.
      While "It’s not me who’s changed, it’s the Left” is true, and some far left bandwagons are harmful and need to be reigned in, at the same time "It’s not me who’s changed, it’s the Right” is *far* more true.
      Traditional Reagan Republicans are being drummed out of the party by a cult of personality that openly feeds on and encourages violence, often in service of racism, even against our constitutional democracy itself. That isn't happening to the other party.
      There are no modern-day equivalents of the Black Panthers or Weather Underground.
      Whats happening now to the right is *much* more extreme than anything currently happening to the left.

His lifestyle choices aside, he has real integrity and doesn’t need to get affirmation from joining whatever the cool cause of the day so happens to be. He’s had the same general messages since his Politically Incorrect days but people who are coming of age now expect him to not hold those views just because their favorite party and approach to ideas is on the line now.

It was on one of those old style hand drying towel units hanging on the wall by the sink. It was the kind that has a long roll of cloth that you yank on to get a new clean section (while the previously used section gets rolled back up into the wall unit). The sticker read something pretty close to: "Warning: Do not insert your head into the cloth towel loop and attempt to hang from it." Well, duh! And you know why that sticker was there. Some kid probably did that, and then their parents sued the diner because the towel unit was "unsafe" because it didn't have that warning.

    I know Tim has been giving Bill a hard time for what essentially boils down to being "too little too late", but it is refreshing to see him start calling out some of the BS that isn't always addressed in the "mainstream".

      Really? Why would mainstream media address any of this? It’s petty, it’s insignificant it doesn’t affect anyone negatively. Bill Maher is the one losing it. He can’t find any good reason to go against the left besides why they want gender neutral toys? But the left lost it? Ok 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

    The Baby warning is a great idea. Don't knock it. The parent not habitually in charge can forget the baby. Drunks don't know they're drunk and the car shouldn't start if they are.

    As a right leaning Republican I can honestly say Bill Maher has my complete respect. Hes old school Democrat, not one of these new age Democrats who cry about being offended by literally anything.

    Love you Bill - nailed it on the head once again. I used to be a proud Democrat but the direction the party has gone in made it easy for me to register as "No Party Preference" in CA. Hopefully common sense returns to the left (and right).

      You will have to vote either Independent or Republican to send a message to the Democrats that you dont like the direction they are going. Once their job is in jeopardy, they will either change their way or lose their job.
