I don't think this man realizes how much sense he makes to the moderates of both parties....which is A LOT of people.
He makes almost 100% sense to me. Id say I am left of center. Love him.
I think that's most people. problem is..as the old saying goes, The squeaky wheel gets the oil.
Bill is the George Orwell of our time...
I agree and the sad part is that Moderates of both parties get overshadowed by the Hard left and hard Right. People act like we don't exist. when we are the majority
Almost like the party system is illusory and we're all just people
Lifelong republican here. I’ve been watching this show for a decade and I have agreed with 80 percent of what he says. Just goes to show you that most of us want some common sense government with pathways for all to succeed.
The reason you agree with 80 percent of what he says is because 80 percent of the show is dedicated to Bill's conservative beliefs, and the other 20 percent is him vaguely acknowledging that the republican party is a little too far right for him.
@@Keritsu1121 It is more Bill is dedicated to his classical liberal beliefs, but his own party has moved so far left he looks conservative now.
@@criticalhorizon Yeah, Bill has never been a classical liberal. Not sure which of his beliefs outside of climate change (which is only a divisive issue in America) would count as liberal.
He needs to drop the Never Trump crap....it's just boring now
Lifelong Republican? Great, then you get to take responsibility for this shit:
States with the most welfare recipients per capita: Republican.
States with the most teen and single mothers: Republican.
States with the lowest average life expectancy: Republican.
States with the highest rates of infant, child, and maternal mortality: almost exclusively Republican.
States that rely on the most assistance from the Federal Government: almost all Republican.
States with the highest gun violence and homicides per capita: almost all Republican.
Majority of debtor states: Republican.
States with the least job opportunities and prospects: Republican.
States with the worst prevailing wages: Republican.
States with the highest levels of poverty: mostly Republican.
Rape capital of the US: Republican (Alaska).
States with the most registered sex offenders per capita BY FAR: Republican.
States with the weakest laws against rapists and pedophiles: Republican.
States with the lowest overall academic performances: majority Republican.
Worst public school systems in the nation: nearly all Republican.
States with the worst racism: overwhelmingly Republican.
Texas is the GOP’s top economic performer, yet the energy grid is a mess, gun violence is out of control, the state’s citizens are the least insured in the nation, and its homeless population is continually growing.
You guys can’t get your shit together AT ALL.
"Gender is fluid, language is fluid... Yes, and Latino voters are fluid." - Nailed It lol
Second that
Indeed
So fluid I'm not even on the spectrum
alright alright alright
EVERYONE is fluid these days....
This is one of the hardest hitting brutally honest commentaries he has ever done. People are tired of being shit on by both parties. We have no lawyers. No one represents us. This has to change.
Paying group of lawyers in civil cases in order to build up enought momentum to convince the lawmakers?
Just to throw a suggestion here.
Broken 2 party system. The dem's dont do enuff 4us and the repub's dont do anything at all 4us. Sad state of affairs. 💩😖🤢
"Total destruction is the only solution" B.M. We need to blow the system up from the core and rebuild it to serve you and me. Blow it all the way back to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights and start new. To long they have entrapped us in slavery of mind and body. Everything you learn from you first day of school on is a lie based on lies, PERIOD.
80% of the time, I feel like most Republicans are representing me. DeSantis is pretty much a conservative God down in Florida!
That’s bc as individuals we don’t bring enough votes. Only organizations and special interest groups can secure enough votes to matter.
I don't always agree with Maher but he is intellectually honest which is more than can be said for most TV personalities.
Indeed. And if we all agreed about everything this world would be completely full of Stepford wives which I imagine would get boring very quickly.
Which is a sad thing to have to say but also isn't exactly true.
I agreed with most of what he was saying EXCEPT for the student loan forgiveness part. Um is Bill aware that its the liberals want to make college free for everyone as well?! which means all the poor kids would get to go to college! debt forgiveness is just a stepping stone to achieve that ULTIMATE goal cause otherwise people who are in debt currently wouldn't support it cause they would think its unfair to them!
@@zeusonolympus123 When have you heard him lie? I'll wait.
No he's not
One thing is certain. You can always count on modern Democrats to choose the wrong hill to die on.
yea the Republicans are just doing dandy. Texas wants to succeed, the majority of Republicans believe the big lie, and Trump is your leader. yea Republicans are on top now.
Thing is, they just won't die.
@@theinnerlight8016 Pelosi and Hillary just need a stake or direct sunlight. Joe just needs another 20 minutes
Many of them, yes
@@theinnerlight8016 lol
I’m a hardcore democrat but it’s sad that my party abandoned the plight of the working class for identity politics, corruption to Wall Street and political correctness
Time to stop being a "hardcore" anything when it relates to political parties.
@@mysticaltyger2009 I know, I’m like a chocoholic except with booze.
Oh no, Democrats defend minorities instead of calling them terrorists, rapists, and groomers. So hard to choose a party
Me too and it costs us on Election day
Oh, yeah, because Republicans have such a stellar record on caring about the working class🙄😏
You hit the nail on the head here Bill. As a Latino from Mexico, we absolutely hate the term LatinX. The only Latinos who use this stupid term are indoctrinated college students.
Same here! Totally agree.
It's used every day and everywhere here in Santiago campuses, from the public U de Chile to the private and expensive UC, and on every street protest in between. I'm so used to it now!
* Indoctrinated gringo college students or culturally alienated LatAm upper middle class people
@@jenplinguist That's quite stupid then, isn't it? It's obvious by the choice of "x" that it's an English-language imposition and not a Spanish-speaker's creation. I don't think US Latinos would hate the word (or some other formulation) so much if it wasn't coming from outside their culture.
Facts! Born and raised in san Antonio, half my family is Mexican. You better not call them Latinx. They'll tell you straight up I'm Mexican! Latinx strips them of their nationality. They're are so many different countries and nationalities it's ridiculous to lump them all together.
It’s fun to see the guest laughing nervously in the cut aways every week. They are always like “should I be laughing at what Bill is saying? Will this age well?” Hahahaha
Will I get canceled for laughing?
The delayed reaction of the audience on this show is always funny to me. Way funnier than any alleged comedy.
They have no idea how to react because they have no moral compass.. This is LA.. I live there part time. The typical person lives in the bubble.
@@sadiepeterson9796 that’s more like it
It’s actually refreshing from all the other times there’s a break for applause every time somebody breathes.
Latinos actually love Speedy Gonzalez. None of them get offended by that character, They love him,
If something is perfect the way it is, that's all the more reason not to reboot it, right?
Only white progressives get offended by it , I’m first generation immigrant and latina never met anyone against
I still like Speedy!
The audience’s awkward silences are always hilariously telling. That’s when Bill has stepped on another set of leftist toes. Keep it up, Billy.
Imagine believing that the obvious laugh track is a real audience 😆
@@synapse913 Sorry dude, that's the dumbest thing I've read all week. Unbelievably dumb.
There are no leftist toes in power to step on, only corporcrat toes and there're not leftist.
@@norsktoolmaker88 I'll take another toke of whatever you're smokin'.
@@norsktoolmaker88 Ha ha ha!
Bill Maher has been killing it with his New Rules segments. He is a brave man.
I am so sick of how our system forces us to choose a person with a specific identity instead of being able to vote on individual policies. It's asinine. When I go out and find a job I have to show I have the skills and then do what my employer tells me to do and how they tell me to do it. But when a politician gets a job they go and do what they want to do and force it down our f****** throats. Who's the boss here? It should be the people not the politician.
Actually, just like you, the politicians are beholden to the ones who give them their money.
@@gregorycerven3484 true but the big money in their pocket isn’t from us it’s from big corporations with their own agenda. We’re just minority stock holders in this country. Hardly enough to have voting stock
Problem is, their REAL employers are their party and party donators. Until we limit how much money they can have to run a campaign, they are beholden to them. This is a major corruption in our system.
That is why Trump did so well...despite all the plethora of lies slung his way...he was a business man...NOT a politican't.
The cause of this is our "first past the post [finish line]" electoral system that guarantees that there can only be two parties, thus drastically reducing, if not eliminating, accountability by our elected representatives.
This could be solved by instituting an instant runoff / ranked choice voting system where people can vote for their preferred candidate without having to worry about "throwing their vote away".
When voters feel free to actually vote for the best candidate, rather than just the one who seems most electable, that gives the best candidate a chance to actually *_win._*
Part of the reason Maher has such a good grasp on these issues and why the Democrats are screwing it up so badly is that he is willing to talk with people on the other side of the aisle. Even if he doesn't agree with them, he is able to understand where they are coming from, and that really shows in this bit.
Somehow, democrats seem to have gotten this advice of "do not interact with conservatives because they're all fascists."
Not only does that backfire but it's the kind of thinking Stalin or Mao would have promoted.
Also, he doesn't gaslight himself about reality so much.
Eh sometimes he's very dismissive
@@destroyermaker maybe somethings are so rediculous they should be dismissed offhand.
A "good grasp on these issues"? The same thing is said about Joe Rogan by so called 'liberals'. Both pander to the bigotry of whites and both agree with the RWWS racial extremists they invite on.
I love how uncomfortable Bills audience appears when he’s speaking truth 💯
Their terrified about being court on camera and being harassed by the hard left nutters who bombard employers with complaints.
Anger the nutty left and you can lose your job and home over nothing!
Put trump in jail for long times
I absolutely love Bill Maher. He is spot on.
He's right about "birthing person." Somewhere out there, there's a pregnant man, and I'm pretty sure they are intelligent enough to know that they are trans and not get offended when someone uses the term "women." They know they are in a tiny, tiny minority of people and are an exception to the rule. We don't need to base our language around rare exceptions.
The thing is that this particular issue is a scaled representation of the entire Democrat problem.
ie catering to hyper vocal micro minorities that scream for attention while the actual majority of their voters first go unnoticed in elections, and then begin to feel themselves made into unheard minorities because of it - leading them no recourse but to try the other team regardless of how disgusting they have made their position before, at that point all it takes is for GOP candidates to make bare minimum token gestures on the campaign trail and they can grab these disaffected voters for a song.
It's one thing to address such issues after elections where you can hold a small PR event for a local newspaper and crow about making a win for them by sliding a provision into a new bill - but FFS Dems leave it out of the election cycle, and leave it out of the national debates!
@@mnomadvfx The "actual majority of their voters" tend to be a hodgepodge of minorities. It was black people in South Carolina who voted for Biden because he was the first black President's VP who give Biden his first primary win and after that the party basically pressured everyone else to drop out.
No white person has "no recourse" but to vote GOP. The GOP is into voter repression, removing women's rights, attacking LGBT people, keeping the minimum wage down, kissing up to dictatorships, repealing Obamacare, almost no restrictions on guns, tax giveaways to the rich, doing nothing about climate change, etc. What on earth does a white voter need so desperately that they're willing to accept all of that in exchange? I ask as a white person who joined the Democratic party in 2008 from being an independent because being an independent implied there were at least two functioning parties to choose from and that no longer existed (and boy did I turn out to be right about that!).
The GOP is running this year with NO LEGISLATIVE AGENDA. Mitch McConnell apparently figured they'd do better with no formal policy positions at all than to say what they intended to do. He got mad at one Senate candidate who made his own list of pledges, including that "everyone has to pay some tax" (meaning a massive tax increase on the lowest income people, retired seniors living on Social Security, etc.), forcing kids to say the Pledge of Allegiance in school, and other crazy things. McConnell told him off but it makes clear what the priorities are. In 2020 the GOP didn't even pass a party platform at their convention! The party's agenda was apparently just "elect Trump". That was historically unprecedented. The only issues I hear Republican candidates running on are the same culture war issues, just the opposite end... they're obsessed with who uses what bathroom, women's sports, rolling back gay rights, holding hearings about right-wing conspiracy theories (pro, not con), making it harder to vote, and all sorts of other unimportant crap. It's not like they've renounced "free trade" and have a plan to build back American manufacturing, help the American cities with the worst crime or unemployment, or anything of actual substance. They just want to "own the libs". What Maher is complaining the Democrats are doing he knows full well the Republicans mastered a while ago (which helped give us Trump).
@@mnomadvfx It's not even the minorities who are hyper vocal. It's their "allies" who've taken up activism as a self-affirming hobby.
Bill's overly obsessed with the language of some liberals. I don't know ANY liberals who talk like OC. He needs to chill with the social media, change the channel and get new liberal friends.
Why does it hurt anyone to be inclusive and respectful of one's personal identity? 🤔
Can't tell you how good it feels to have someone with the reach of Bill Maher talking sense right now where everyone and their mom is a political activist, and everyone is just screeching "partisan truths". I really miss George Carlin right now. 🙏
Yea it does give me a good feeling.
Sad that this guy is one of the few leftys that's not completely insane.
George Carlin would not quite be on the same page as Maher. He would be more on the same page of Colbert and Jon Stewart.
@@johnandrewmayne You think Maher is a "lefty"? 🤣
@@MsThebeMoon he used to be. But the left has moved SO FAR left that’s basically a centerist now.
Bill is one of the few people that I would actually want to have dinner with.
*with whom you can have dinner. 🤦♂️
@@MisterMcKinneyNobody likes people like you
If you would have told me 5 years ago that I'd be DVR'ing Bill Maher & sending these youtube clips to my friends & family, I would have told you exactly how INSANE I thought you were.
Yet, here we are...... 🤯🤷♀️
Thank you, Bill, for being the voice of reason in this bizarre twilight zone that we all have found ourselves in. Keep it up!
People have accused Bill of changing his views but it's not his views that changed but what the Democratic party has become. The same could be said about the GOP. I grew up a Truman Democrat and a Reagan Republican and I can hardly recognize the two parties
This is one of those moments where we have to remember that idealists are good soldiers but pragmatists are good generals.
Your “soldiers” are why people hate the democrats.
Yes, lawd!
“It’s easy to be a naive idealist. It’s easy to be a cynical realist. It’s quite another thing to have no illusions and still hold the inner flame.”

lol, those things arent mutually exclusive
Have the DNC pragmatists accomplished anything?
I may not agree with everything Bill said, but the basic message is something our Dem reps need to hear: be our lawyers.
failed lawyer = politician ... or am i wrong?
I disagree that a Speedy Gonzales reboot would somehow be a bad thing
I just want the old democrats back, you know the ones that protected the American worker. Not this insane virtue signalling fruitcake party.
@@livll2
Bada bing
Bill is crushing the game in his editorials. I wish every single person that cares ever so slightly about politics to the person that can’t stop thinking about it would watch Bill’s mother effing editorials. I think he could literally help the country in a serious way. How do we get more people to watch bill? There’s been times throughout the years when I couldn’t watch bill because he Was so far away from on his politics, but I’m back and more people need to watch.He can bring people together. The Crazy left, the crazy right, and the in the middle need to start watching these videos.
I have so much respect for Bill Maher. I used to think he was just alright. But I'll be honest, I'm onboard with 99.9% of everything he says. He is easily disliked, and not due to him being a horrible person. He is disliked because he speaks honestly about subjects, no matter who agrees or disagrees with him. Instead of persecuting comedians for their opinions on the important current issues, maybe we should see them as simply what they are... opinions.No one is making anyone come to his, or any other show. Logical thinking, once again, at its finest. Thanks Bill!
1:52 the hilarious thing is, a lot of the Mexican American community actually loves Speedy Gonzales, and a lot of them protested when the network pulled the old Speedy cartoons from the air and forced them to start airing them again 😂
So funny seeing the confused smiles on his guests faces and hearing the “Uhhh…do we clap now?” from the audience.
That was PRICELESS.... They clapped like hell over his comment(s) about Republicans and Trump and then had no clue for most of his monologue....
I thought it was HILARIOUS!
Yup. Wokeness has instilled fear in the left.
2:21 was my favorite. "Noo Republican bad...no can clap"
@@seanj6310 Or maybe the exact part you are referring to is not funny? You are aware they applaud the punchline?
@@janszlazak9495 this audience doesn't seem to know what a punchline is
Problem is that with a polarized two-party system, many people are hard pressed to find a candidate that they feel speaks for them.
Ranked choice voting would give people more flexibility in voting for any candidate, without fearing of hurting the "lesser evil."
Used to be Whigs vs. Federalists. Need a 3rd and 4th party to arise, give more choices to align with one's values.
Absolutely right. Unfortunately, the candidates on both sides need to pander to the extremists in order to get through the primaries.
@@Knightmessenger Right on!! 'Ranked choice' has been used here and there and works great... but the 2-ONLY party system works even better for the uni-party duopoly that runs our country, for the benefit of the oligarchs.
If only we humans in the USA could get off the 1-DIMENSIONAL political scale and think in 3-D, just as we do out in the real world. Two party crap is idiotic, with idiotic results. THIRD parties are a requirement for representation of REALITY of the human mind and actions.
Bill, I love you with all of my heart and wish you a good happy life if this insane world. God I love rationality and logic and those who speak it. Objective, fair thinking people.
Thanks for watching~~~ write ✍️ me immediately for more enlightenment
💙💙💙💙💙,,,
Blows my mind how much I agree with him now a days!! Accept the final statement. Lol
It says so much about the state of the country that I can't tell if this is laudable or hysterical...
I like that Maher’s citing facts on why the GOP flipped a seat in a mostly Latino Texas district and Asian voters are moving to the GOP in droves.
What isn't said about Asians, is they know who is attacking them on the streets and it isn't Republicans. Yet the dems try to sound outraged.
It was a low turnout special election and the district is being redrawn. Yes, there's a trend that can't be ignored but the seat may be won back.
@@ucdwags00 honestly shut it
Dummycrats pander to greedy unions, teachers, and freeloaders, socialists who want free stuff that others have to pay for. No wonder tons of people and jobs leave blue states to move to purple or red states. Voting with your feet.....🙄
@@ucdwags00 Unlikely. Once the Latin people realize how much more freedom they have, how much more of their money they can keep, and how much their religious believes are different from fetus-flushing Democrats, they will never go back. As for Asians... they are all high earners, none on dole. They finally realized Democrats just want to take their money and give it African un-wed mothers and illegal Latinos. Asians have discovered the truth. Only when Democrats really got power and started shoving through their tax-Asians and spend on Africans policies, Asians realized Republicans are the party for them.
As a Dutch guy who watches this from the side i gotta say, i love each and every New Rule segment..
You guys are lucky to have Bill, and that is a fact!🙏😎
You’re Dutch and your country is f. Lmao
I wouldn't say lucky. I respect him for his beliefs on free speech and comedy but not all of us agree with everything he says. Sometimes he exaggerates. He's not always right.
@@wombat5252 But then again who is?🙏
@@peterlubbers5947 I say "when you agree 100% with someone you are probably having a conversation with yourself"
You agree that debt slavery should remain in tact, and that poor kids can't go to college so they don't want others who did to be free of their debt? While the US government has plenty of money to send to Ukraine every week and $1 trillion for the defense budget. How much did you pay or college Pete?
Bill Maher is the best. He nails every issue right on the head, points out where the problems are, and doesn't worry about hurting someone's feelings in the process.
Because the truth hurts, and the world isn't about making everyone feel good. Sometimes things are going to hurt. That's life.
Thanks Bill! Keep going and never stop! We need more people like you speaking up!
Thanks for watching~~~ write ✍️ me immediately for more enlightenment
💙💙💙💙💙,,
This is the first video I watched of Bill Maher and I've been a fan ever since. I love how sensible all of his points are. I didn't realise how far left I'd leaned, all I knew was that it didn't sit right with me. He points out the logical gymnastics people have made and I laugh every time 😂
Exactly, if the party you support isn’t representing you, then you have every right to find someone who does. Screw party loyalty and screw the two-party system
TRUMP 2024...
Let's go surfing now,
Elon Musk is learning how,
c'mon and ride the red wave with me...
@@relaxandsleep978 yeah, I’m pretty sure Trump doesn’t speak for me, so I’ll pass
Are you sure about that? Or do you just believe blindly the lies the MSM spews about him? Let me guess... you still believe the lies of "very fine people" and "all Mexicans are Rapists".
Now here's where most of you lefties go silent... name one Trump policy that you disagree with, just one - but you have to explain to me the reasons why you disagree with that policy. Never mind his personality - I'm talking policies here.
The thing I don't understand is, the left have been pining for decades for someone just like Trump to come along. Someone to be brave enough to clean up the DC swamp. To represent the American people and not American corporations. It was never going to happen with someone like a Ron Paul - even though I love that man. It had to be someone with his own wealth and fame. More importantly, someone who had the attitude and demeanor it would take to take on the swamp. You may think he's mean, but that is exactly what we need in these times.
Trump had his own television show on NBC... the very company that spews the most hateful lies about him. Think about that. He appeared in movies and rap videos. People loved him, or at the very least, the hatred of him was at a bare minimum. What changed? Those in power knew him and they knew when he decided to run for POTUS that he was a treat to their money printing machines that keep the common man down.
@@relaxandsleep978 the wall was a *terrible* idea. Not only did he massive underestimate the required cost, but even the idea that it would curb illegal immigration was flawed. Most illegals come into the country legally, they just overstay their visas because GOP politicians have been making progressively more difficult for them to obtain work visas. I’m not saying it’s a new thing. Old conservative immigrants have always hated new immigrants. But the wall that was built can’t keep anyone out. There are countless videos online of people climbing the wall (or a copy of it) even without any gear.
His claims of massive voter fraud are now serving to make it difficult for poor minorities to vote. The GOP has jumped on the bandwagon of “voter fraud” (which never happened even according to the same GOP politicians) in order to ensure their own continuous reelection.
Trump never drained any swamp. He made it deeper by putting a bunch of yes-men in his Cabinet, by failing to put his business into a blind trust, thus creating a conflict of interest, by putting his own relatives into positions of power, by wasting taxpayer money on constant golf trips, by forcing people to pay his own resort because Camp David isn’t up to his standards of opulence (never mind all the local businesses he killed around Mar a Lago because of the constant security lockdowns).
He pulled out of Paris Accords, even though it was a largely symbolic agreement to reduce carbon emissions so that future generations might have a habitable planet to live on.
He kept trying to lift sanctions on Russia, pathfinders I’ll admit to being biased, since I’m Ukrainian-American. Sure, he signed the bill in the end, but that’s only because the Congress had enough votes to overturn his veto, and it would’ve made him look bad.
Not to mention that what happened with the SCOTUS is on his head.
None of that is about his personality but about his actions as president
Let begin by saying, a very noble effort sir... but let's examine this, shall we?
*_the wall was a terrible idea. Not only did he massive underestimate the required cost, but even the idea that it would curb illegal immigration was flawed_*
Wrong - the costs that came in over budget for the wall was mostly due to that that the DEMs kept suing to stop it.
*_but even the idea that it would curb illegal immigration was flawed._*
Wrong - the number of illegal immigration crossing the southern US border under Trump's policies was at the lowest levels in decades. If the wall doesn't help, then why are the Dems so dead set against it?
*_Most illegals come into the country legally, they just overstay their visas_*
Correct
*_because GOP politicians have been making progressively more difficult for them to obtain work visas._*
Wrong Take - the GOP politicians just favor people who are already here. The Dems used to do this also... but now they just want to flood America with illegals because they tend to vote left for all the "free stuff".
*_But the wall that was built can’t keep anyone out. There are countless videos online of people climbing the wall (or a copy of it) even without any gear._*
Nobody said it was flawless... but it is a deterrent and it slows them down so that border security agents can get there to stop them. Nothing is 100% fullproof.
*_His claims of massive voter fraud are now serving to make it difficult for poor minorities to vote. The GOP has jumped on the bandwagon of “voter fraud” (which never happened even according to the same GOP politicians) in order to ensure their own continuous reelection._*
Remind me, who was claiming voter fraud from 2016 to 2020 even though there was no evidence of it? Oh yeah... literally EVERYONE on the left. Ever heard of Russiagate and how it was disproven many times? Watch "2000 Mules", then get back to me. Your eyes just might get opened.
*_Trump never drained any swamp. He made it deeper by putting a bunch of yes-men in his Cabinet_*
Wrong take - Any person in that situation wants his cabinet to back their policies. Ever POTUS has done that - from both parties. To suggest that is only a Trump phenomenon is just naive and foolish. Also, Do you not remember the revolving door for Whitehouse staffers in Trumps first 2 years? He was literally draining the swamp, specifically, the people in the WH. He even replaced his own replacements upon learning they were either not up to the task or too swampy for his liking.
*_by failing to put his business into a blind trust, thus creating a conflict of interest, by putting his own relatives into positions of power_*
Wrong - Again, to suggest that this is a Trump only phenomenon is naive and foolish. He had his family run his business while he was POTUS. Ask the "big guy" and his 10% from his son Hunter. Btw - it should be noted that Trump was the first President in decades who's personal wealth DECREASSED while in office while others (from both sides of the aisle) dramatically increased.
*_by wasting taxpayer money on constant golf trips, by forcing people to pay his own resort because Camp David isn’t up to his standards of opulence_*
Biased Take - Trump liked to golf, but not as much as Obama. According to Newsweek, Trump golfed, on average, 35 rounds per year (not including during the scamdemic - which would have lowered Trumps average significantly). Obama averaged 41 rounds per year - 6 more than Trump. But Obama was so much better, not - alas - that is a debate for another day. Biden's trips to Delaware is costing over $3 Million just for the Secret Service alone. And according to CNN, Biden has taken 35 personal trips and spent 108 of his first 276 days in office at one of his Delaware homes. By comparison, Trump spent all OR PART of 61 days at his properties in the same period of time. If you condemn one side, make sire you condemn the other side for even worse behavior.
*_(never mind all the local businesses he killed around Mar a Lago because of the constant security lockdowns)._*
Biased Take - Those businesses were mainly the ones directly linked to the Lantana airport. Not saying that they don't matter, but that has been blown way out of proportion.
*_He pulled out of Paris Accords, even though it was a largely symbolic agreement to reduce carbon emissions so that future generations might have a habitable planet to live on._*
Wrong - It's true that he pulled out of the Paris accord... but what the press doesn't tell you is that after doing so, America's carbon emissions under Trump were lower than what the Paris Accord's goals were, and they didn't have to waste taxpayer money on an organization that doesn't hold the world's largest polluters to account, like China, to name just one.
*_He kept trying to lift sanctions on Russia, pathfinders I’ll admit to being biased, since I’m Ukrainian-American. Sure, he signed the bill in the end, but that’s only because the Congress had enough votes to overturn his veto, and it would’ve made him look bad._*
Biased - Fact is, no other President since Reagan was harder on Russia than Trump. Russia didn't do sh!t when Trump was POTUS, same goes for China and North Korea too.
*_Not to mention that what happened with the SCOTUS is on his head._*
Tell me, what exactly and very specifically did Trump do with SCOTUS that any other president would not have done or tried to do in the past? Are you suggesting that the Dems would not have blocked any of the 3 Trump appointed SCOTUS justices if they had the numbers in the house? Wake up. Is it Trump's fault that RBG didn't retire when she should have, in Obama's first term, to allow him to select her replacement? I notice how you very conveniently failed to mention that if the DEMs had their way, they would've expanded the SCOTUS seats to flood it with far-left leaning justices to get the results they wanted. Also noticed how you very conveniently failed to mention how Barrack Obama tried, and failed, in his last year as POTUS to do the EXACT same thing when Scalia died and nominated Merrick Garland. Where was the calls to wait and let the new incoming President nominate the new SCOTUS justice.
*_None of that is about his personality but about his actions as president_*
...and every single point you made was either completely wrong or extremely biased, cherry picked points with no context given.
When I asked you *_Are you sure about that? Or do you just believe blindly the lies the MSM spews about him?_*, it looks like I have my answer. It is very clear you get your news from far-left sources that flat out lie and purposely leaves important facts and context out of their "reporting".

As long as vested interests are paying politicians, politicians will be the lawyers of the vested interests, not of the people.
lol exactly
if it wasn't so actually depressing, it would be HILARIOUS to me that people actually still think politicians and "elected officials" actually fight for their interests, and not those of corporate lobbyists etc. Politics aren't about helping / serving the people, it's about USING THE PEOPLE. It's all just a game to them, and at the end of the day not a single one of us fucking matter to them in the slightest.
people need to realize this
Which is why Trump was soooo good and they hate him. Because he is wealthy and don’t need the special interest money. Everyone was doing better under Trump, except politicians.
You can donate and lobby politicians too. "Vested Interests" really just means "people who actually care about what's going on". Example: the IRS had a rule where if you wager at a racetrack and you win a bet with a certain payoff - I don't remember, say 200-1 - you have to sign a form and they without the maximum possible taxes from the payout and you'll have to get the money back at refund time if you're below the maximum tax bracket. The big problem was that they didn't count losing wagers on the same bet. Odds that high generally result from exotic bets such as picking the winners of the following six races. Few people buy just one ticket on wagers like that, they might have bought 50, 60, 100 different tickets. Obviously only one could win. It only seemed fair that that 200-1 rule should only be if that payoff exists after you deduct all the losing tickets; the actual return, say, might only be 50-1. Horseplayers decided that trainers and jockeys and owners had their own groups and it was time for the customers to do the same and formed a Horseplayers' Association. In addition to dealing with issues at various tracks that affect players they hired a lobbyist who went to Washington and explained to lawmakers about the IRS rule and how it screws people over. Horseplayers contribute a lot through the significant taxes taken out of winning wagers and by withholding money on tickets that really weren't 200-1 it was making it much more difficult for people to have a winning season, discouraging play. Finally, after decades with this rule, the IRS announced a tentative change in the rule and invited comment at the behest of a lobbied politician. Horseplayers voiced their support, no one objected, and after this rule screwing horseplayers for decades it finally got changed thanks to lobbying efforts. In regards to "vested interests" I'd say "Don't beat them - join them!"

Merely spraying vitriol at right wing politicians and their voters is neither constructive nor likely to make any difference in the modern environment where people have become proudly tribal/cultish in nature about their chosen political party affiliation.
If you want to bring their voters back you need to give them concrete reasons that are not based on the constantly shifting sands of modern identity politics, but rather the everyday needs of a majority of Americans.
The Democrats have too long allowed themselves to be distracted by hyper vocal minority groups on the left that scream for attention all the time - not all of which need to be addressed in politics, let alone deserve any place in the campaign rhetoric of Democrat electoral candidates.
Democrats need to leave these minority issues to post election wins that they can crow about to those groups in person rather than on national TV where it draws undue attention to them over the needs of all.
Yeah, and 20 years ago ABC fired him. When I think of Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher, I really miss the 1990s, and the 20th century for that matter.
Probably the best commentary he’s ever done
watching the panel squirm as bill speaks is comedy in itself.
Opening panel interview segment was great.
The two on the panel tonight echoed how most gay men and lesbians feel (I being one of them). We are constantly silenced for being politically incorrect by the new additions of “QAA+” who always seem to be people in heteronormative relationships and cis gender bodies who adopt terms like “non binary”, “queer”, “asexual” “aro ace”, “gender fluid”, claim to be us, and tell everyone else how to speak. Gays and lesbians are silenced all the time in LGBTQ+ spaces for saying common sense things like the two on the panel said tonight. Idk how many times I’ve seen legit trans folks silenced by non binary and gender fluid people too. The neo-pronoun crowd needs to get their own club.
Andrew is right. Gays and lesbians have been the most pro-free speech folks out there and for generations it was all we had. The new QAA+ are hurting us in the mainstream sphere. Gays and lesbians and bisexual people are who are on the front lines. We get all of the hate lobbed at us for ideas that aren’t ours that largely belong to “college aged women with blue hair” as the panelists so aptly pointed out. Meanwhile they’re spared from the repercussions they create because they largely exist in heteronormative relationships and cisgender bodies.
You don’t even have to be a woman who is attracted to women in order to call yourself a lesbian anymore (not referring to transwomen here).
Spot on my experience in the LGBTQ+ community in the last five years or so. I’m extremely progressive and find myself being silenced constantly for just questioning things that don’t make sense and that undermine gay and trans existence.
I also couldn’t agree more with the over diagnosing of gender dysphoria. I heard all of the time when I was growing up that everything I liked was meant for boys and that I acted like a boy and that I was a boy in a girl’s body. I’ve told people so many times if I were growing up in today’s world I would have been diagnosed as a trans kid when in actuality I was just a lesbian who had gender confusion because I didn’t fit into the mould of what a female is supposed to be and every adult (and lots of kids) made a point to constantly tell me that I wasn’t being a girl the right way. Instead of telling me that I was a girl and girls can be all kinds of things/like all kinds of things and still be girls. I grew out of my gender confusion and am totally comfortable as a woman. But all through my childhood I thought I was in the wrong body. I wasn’t. Our society is just closed minded on the variance of experience one can have as a human female. Especially when I was a kid. Gays and lesbians are most susceptible to being misdiagnosed as trans when they’re just gay and lesbian kids.
In Reno the gay men and Lesbian Women don't even want to be in the same bar.
Hard to get your gay on when butch women are watching.
Thank you for sharing your story and agree fully! I would add that many relatively feminine hetero boy and masculine hetero girls are also affected. As a hetero cis man who grew up around many gay, lesbian and even one trans women who were my mom's friends, I am truly appalled at how the current climate is set not only to ruin the lives of many such young people, but is also now begining to seriously help empower the bigoted religious right as well, though now often with a "conservative libertarian" cover... With both extremes being increasingly empowered and co-leading this society even while fighting each other, may God help us! 😥
I worry about what all this is going to do to the rights we older gay and trans people fought so hard for. We are already all getting painted with the brush of the extremists. I have also noticed how many of these culture warriors are in straight relationships.
You're so right. The new additions are belligerent perverts.

As somebody who did go to college and makes more money (maybe, even that’s questionable) I would just like to say that between the time I graduated and my husband and graduated a few years later the amount of increase in tuition and interest rate offered by the government is insane. My loan was under 3% interest and I JUST almost finished paying it off. My husband’s loan will never be paid off. We may be making more money but we are in debt for the rest of our lives because of poor regulation, schools taking advantage with their charges and classes (advising to add classes that are not needed for instance for the required course to graduate) I don’t think that the government should be making money in interest on educating its people. They need to do something about the interest rates on loans so we can actually pay them off some day!!!
How can Bill talk about this issue without bringing up the fact that our 'lawyers' are too busy prioritising corporate and donor interests to give us proper representation?
Isn't it amazing how Bill never talks about economic issues of workers?
That's definitely true to some extent, but there's no big corporate money behind pushing a word like Latinx, I don't think. That's just alienating voters for free.

Not because anyone actually complained.

Oh man, the crowd I used to hang around with online all scream "Maher is a racist! Maher is a sexist!" if you even brought up his name. They also denounce Michael Moore as "stupid", etc. These two were the rocks of liberal media commentary for 20 years, I mean "Rodger and Me" is a classic... but the youngsters were all obsessed with "free trade", and telling me that factory workers are all white racists who voted for Trump so they don't care what happens to their towns or their jobs and they just need to find another job or move. I decided to move myself out of the circle of people who think like that instead. I don't think it's just me getting older and getting all "you kids keep off my lawn"; the younger political activists today are self-important thanks to growing up with social media which at the same time insulates them in ideological bubbles more than ever possible before so they're perspectives are even narrower and ability to reason and deal with people with different ideas practically crippled.

Bill Maher is a worthless shill.
Have any of you ever heard of the 1942 USDA film, *Hemp for Victory?* In all of the years that Bill Maher has been on television, he has spoken numerous times about how much he loves to smoke weed, but never once bothered to educate his audience about the fact that "Marihuana" was legalized to save the world from fascism and genocide during World War II, and that doing the same thing now will stop climate change.
The 13-minute, 42-second 1942 US Department of Agriculture video *Hemp for Victory* is the key to reducing unemployment, reducing poverty, reducing hunger, reducing homelessness, reducing health care costs, reducing crime, reducing police brutality, reducing government spending, reducing political corruption, reducing pollution, replacing fossil fuels, ending deforestation and stopping climate change, all at the same time.
There is an official .gov link to the film from the US National Archives. It has been public since 1990.
There was a bill in Congress titled HR 3652, the *Hemp for Victory Act of 2019.*
The USDA reported in Bulletin 404 in 1916 that one acre of Cannabis can make as much paper as four acres of trees.
Ford made a plastic car body in 1941 with hemp, and the Diesel engine was designed to run on plant-based fuel.
This means that for at least the last 80 years, we could have made all of our paper from hemp, and cars and fuel for those cars from hemp, without cutting down forests or drilling or fracking or waging war for oil, and thereby averting climate change altogether.
It is because industrial hemp can replace trees for paper and construction, and replace petroleum and petrochemicals for transportation fuel and plastic, bankrupting the timber and oil industries, that Cannabis Sativa was labeled "Marijuana" and outlawed as a "dangerous" drug.
That was amazing. Thank you Bill. One thing we don't really need is more lawyers. Hey Bill, I think you are rooting for the wrong team.

Currently it's more like the "let's not do anything to really offend the other half" and the "let's do everything to make the other half hate our guts" halves.
@@666Tomato666 Indeed it is. Good point. And I am sure that was just the way it was intended. Only really rich people need apply when they are selfish enough to take bribes and lets pay them about triple the average salary for not showing up to work.
If you are reasonably well read, it is an enactment of Lord of the Flies with people in suits.
It's not that. They talk the talk but if you see what they actually do, red and blue are just two factions of the Big Business Party. Your job is to vote for them and then keep quiet.
@@rais1953 yes.
There's a problem with too many people waiting for a third party to come along that fits all of their positions while they continue to vote red or blue while holding their noses. People don't even consider candidates from the minor parties. They just keep voting blue and red, because they buy into the notion that no one else can win. Well, someone else can win. People just have to break from the false duality of red/blue.
I've had many conversations over the years with people who are dissatisfied, and I've always suggested they vote for an alternative party candidate (like I've been doing since I was first able to vote, back in 1985). I almost always get the same confused look and a response that's some variation of, "But they can't win." If a Unity Party were to come into being, it would garner a negligible number of votes, because people would say, "But they can't win." We have the power to change things now, but I sincerely doubt we ever will. We have alternative parties, and if everyone who's dissatisfied with the major two would vote for any of those other parties instead, we'd see change. They don't even need to win. All they have to do is make it to a double digit percentage of the total vote to shake things up in a big way, which would be an excellent start for real change.
People have to get out of the "lesser of two evils" mindset and adopt a mentality of voting for the most good of many (whatever that means to each individual).
One of the current minor parties might then organically rise up to be that "Unity Party" for which you long, but people have to vote anything other than Democrat or Republican for that to happen.
Agreed 👍 if you say Latin X in Laredo TX you just might get your ass kicked even though I am more aligned with the left they definitely do kringey and nonsensical things at times and lose focus about important things.
Bill Maher needs to create a PAC to promote candidates who will be "MY LAWYER!" regardless of the D or R letters.
🤔 didn't bill mess with super head!??....good show bill..,🤣
