It should be a criminal offense to lie to the public to get into public office.
But how do you do that with current jurisprudence about the first amendment? Political speech is protected under the U.S. constitution.
Then half the people elected would be gone! YES!!
The UK prime minister told the truth what EXACTLY she would do when she got into office. She followed through on that and they got rid of her after only a month and her own party politicians actually said... we didn't think she was serious. I didn't like her policies but I did admire she didn't lie
Well, it's not. Welcome to politics. It's up to voters to get information through personal research or through real journalists. Republicans are becoming more and more ridiculous based on their representatives.
America's assbackwards White supremacy criminal and political justice system will always remain assbackwards.
He's like an AI generated politician.
Best comment tonight!
You are so smart.
You are so right! We better keep this in mind, a new AI called Chat GBT is being used by college kids to research & write papers, politicians are probably at it too, especially the younger ones!
Could also be designed by aliens... 🙈
In this case AI stands for Abrasive Idiot
"If you're hazy on the details of his life, don't worry, so is he" got me 🤣
George Santos, or whatever his real name is 🤔 is not hazy, this was premeditated Lies and he should be thrown out on his ass, along with whoever closed their eyes 🫣 on his reference background check. Including those who financed him.
Lies again? NRIC Card

I corrected it for ya:

You know, he kind of looks like George Costanza... If George Costanza was a half black gay catholic holocaust survivor with a brain tumor.
"Don't believe all the quotes from the internet" Mahatma Gandhi
Funny, Santos reminds me of George Costanza.
As a Brazilian, allow me to be the first to apologize to everyone in USA for this guy.
But on the bright side, now he's not our problem anymore.
Good luck, thanks for taking this nutcase off our hands.
And in my defense, we didn't vote for him here, you did there.
I actually believe Bolsonaro is behind this “George Santos” person, or rather, the same Russian oligarchs who backed Trump and Bolsonaro, are behind him
😂
Did he run for office down there?
@@tkat6442 No but he apparently commited crimes like fraud that must have been severe enough for national authorities to re-open the case after he got elected in the US.
That’s true. And congrats on giving Bolsonaro the boot, too!
Honestly. This dude is a legend.
Jokes aside, this case perfectly highlights the problem with our society, perfectly.
And Bill nails it. People care about image and good feelings more than facts and substance.
For real. Electing Chewbacca to the senate is one thing, but a con artist where we don’t even know his real name to congress is legendary without a freaking doubt!
Proves the point that a liar and bullshitter can easily get elected. To do that on this day and age... that's almost reckless behaviour. And appealing to pretty much everybody, that's next level trolling. And a good example of just not giving two sh!ts about anything. Sounds like a shady character straight out of "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia".
Some people
@@mejsjalv right
The more ridiculous, the better.
All people thought in 2016, nobody can top Trump and his wall.
This guy: hold my Beer 🍺
Anyone can run for republicans.
Real definition of freedom.
Otherwise that party wouldn't exists anymore if it wasn't for principals, because they are all half brain dead.
Excellent takedown of Santos. Nobody could do it better than Maher.

"I just said something and put it in quotations so it must be insightful." - Me
How does Santos come off as sincere?
@@biff5856 It's a mystery to me how he ever did, but apparently a majority of people are stupid.
@@Shinku_no_sanbun "..apparently a majority of people are stupid." are you just now figuring that out? Thats not what changed. As Maher pointed out and warned us about, the majority of people are now (mostly stupid and) ISOLATED, insulated from any variety of ideas. Thats a frightening combination.
Its the combination that bred most (if not all) of the world's greatest catastrophies.
@@jv-lk7bc Great comment.
Lying to get what you want is not only normalized, but encouraged.
Yes, it's called "democracy."
Fake it till you make it. That's todays motto. Sadly 😔
Rewarded
As long as the American populace can't tell the difference between performative accomplishments and actual accomplishments this is the culture that we deserve.
Think about this the next time you deal with a superior at your job who's clearly dumber than you or have your job resume collecting dust in ATS hell.
Republicans rule being followed by the book.
You just gotta love Bill Maher's humor.
The one liners were great in this, they just kept rolling with wit.
@@iminumst7827 Case in point: "...I doubt if he's part black. No black guy would wear a blazer with a fleece vest..." !!
It scares me that he gets to keep his job.
But Republicans need his vote, though unworthy of serving in high office.
It should scare everyone that he is allowed to keep his job. This should be an illegal and fraudulent campaign win, based on mis-representation, a fictitious candidate was elected.
VOTE SANTOS OUT, VOTE BLUE!
@@user-kn6vy5zj3zokay I'll tell the people who voted him out of Congress 4 months ago to vote him out of Congress

Most famous George Santos quote
"I'm not the hypocrite I claim to be."
Joe Biden’s America is looking more like Cuba every day so sad 😢
Save Detroit MAGA ❤🎉
& "to tell you the Truth, I Lie all the time"
"the sentence I am saying right now is a lie."
This is hysterical.
Great points. Santos is a reflection of where we are. The fact he won should be a warning to us, that we have to do better. Sadly I don't think people will change.
trump showed us the way. you can lie lie lie and still get to the top. santos is just learning from his master.
Yes. It's because of people like him Orwell's 1984 will become a reality. Orwell was wrong only about the year...
@@ianw0ng Santos lies almost as much as Biden
Trump opened the flood gates for these grifters. This country is heading towards an oligarchy/Autocracy by electing these corrupt ghouls into office.
70 million people voted for a traitor and criminal. Democracy is doomed because people are gullible and stupid. There is a reason democracy has never worked in the history of mankind. We are going through it right now. Stupid people voting is allowed, so what you see is what you get.
I am definitely headed to Congress as I am a Jewish Puerto Rican with a disability who graduated from Hunter College and worked at Scudder Stevens and Clark before running a laboratory at Columbia Presbyterian and doing research on Alzheimers disease as a citizen scientist.
Brilliant, brilliant, commentary! Bill, you are spot on with the George Santos story. You’re on fire lately, sir!
My favorite Santos moment is definitely the Jewish thing. Bill left out the best part, when he was called out for not being Jewish he said no I meant I was “Jew -ish” as in “ish” like kind of sort of 😂😂
Yea, cause the ish part is such a part of nomenclature today. I personally am a fan of the drag part of his backstory
" it depends on what your definition of what ' is ' is.....I did not have sex with those women , whether in the Oval office,governor mansion, or on the 3rd hour of ABC GMA 3....🤪😜👹🥒🍆
And if called out, he'll say that he meant to say that he is Black-ish.
Mom died 9/11 but GO FUND ME $ to get homeless Vet's dogs tumor removed yet kept the $. That was the worst, not that ppl were scammed out of $ but Vet lost his dog! Putin probably has him on State tv telling Russians how stupid USA is!
Ffs, I might have voted for him based on that joke. You have to admit, the guy's a professional.
It's like having a clown at your kids birthday party, but he doesn't leave.
Not a clown.. a drag queen-ish..
And he is drunk 🥴
Wearing your clothes 😂
EXCELLENT 👍👍😀
Brilliant monologue, just brilliant. You can be smart, funny, deep and hilarious, all at once.
Brilliant.👏👏👏👏👏👏
I do find it amazing how select politicians can lie constantly and not be challenged and yet they go after others… very selective
Come on, give this guy a break. Being the 1st man on Mars he has my respect. Also single handily capturing Bigfoot was amazing too.
I thought it was Jupiter? Ah, he probably visited both. Such a great dude
The fact he is the most honoured Academy Award winner in cinematic history, and holds the record for most Everest summits achieved, he gets my respect for.
@@tioswift3676 It's Uranus.
Also the first King of Andals!
Heard he has a pet chupacabra too
I'm surprised Santos hasn't lied about being a Navy SEAL.
I heard he has over 300 confirmed kills and that he's trained in gorilla warfare.
His seal would have been popped in the navy
@@Slug99 those high heels 👠 can be deadly weapons
Give him time.
But that's because he really IS a Navy seal and they aren't allowed to blow their cover.
Who Santos is (no pun intended) and how he got elected all rolled into one great analyzation…thanks Bill you summed it up perfectly.
I want a movie of this man's life where they show all the timelines of his achievements and weird events.
Which "this man" are you referring to, genius ?
Thier is it called catch me if you can, watch it and tell us what you think
Nope, because he would reap that harvest. But I do think the movie is coming. I figure it will be about the time he’s in an orange jumpsuit
This is like Catch Me If You Can, but he gets caught everytime! 😂
Gets caught every time, yet somehow gets away with it and keeps going O.o
You chase him and catch him, but then don’t know what to do with him
But sits in Congress anyway....
He reached his destination
It's more like he's Trumpltilskin's apprentice: He lies so much, no one can keep up.
George's mantra:"If Don the Con went to the WH, I can start by going to the Congress"
Exactly!
He is following in the footsteps of tiny hands. Why has it taken so long for trump to finally getting a small portion of what he deserves. I wonder if the late scrutiny and calls for him to resign bothers him at all?
The laughter you can hear from Sydney, Australia is me. Spectacular writers, perfect delivery.
What a brilliant sumamary. He held up the mirror to the illusions and hypocrisies of both sides of the isle and they saw what they wanted to see. He's not a political symptom, he's the embodiment of the diagnosis.
I still just find it nuts that the competition didn't look into his past AT ALL. I thought when somebody runs for public office, suddenly their whole life gets scrutinized? I can't imagine fumbling that badly as a campaign manager.
bubble burst moment, wonder why they call it bubble?
Except they did though. Zimmerman call Santos out for his lies and there were newspaper articles and local news outlets saying his claims were unsubstantiated. Who told you that nobody knew about him being a liar?
I think this was done on purpose because the scandal is bigger if he is an elected member of congress
Positive that the competition is the second largest grifter after Donald Trump. All those lies and nothing to hang your hat on. Should get lessons from John Fetterman how to deal with these types.
His competition did look into his past and talk about it. The allegations just didn't get anyone's attention until after he won the election.
The truly amazing thing is that this is not illegal and that this conman will actually get to stay and make the laws that will affect our lives. Truly our system is broken beyond repair. 😪
We told you so in 2020, but nooooo, evil Orange Man (another myth) was more important
Wow! Your comment is profound! Very, very well said! 👏 thank you! We agree with you!
@spark24091 well said! Thank you.
Liz Warren made a full career of her lies AND got a FREE education! You go girl!
@@louisyeostros4978 We all said so after 2000 but Republicans love the broken system and cheating. Trump won by cheating and only got to keep his job by a corrupt system. Orange man is evil and the worst President ever.
Bill is a good thinker. He is spot on how Santos hoodwinked everyone because we are all in our own bubbles, or silos, and that we are all lost in our isolated universes, with no objective point of observation.
Bill has 15. writers doing his thinking
Hey, speak for yourself, Blake 😤!
... Or at least for Santos's voters. Only about 1/435th of the USA.
I may be in my own bubble, but not in politics. --J
Jokes are on yall. I spend half of my political time in extremely racist discords, and the other half pretending to be a transman on twitter and retweeting every Democrat supporter. It's easy to break the bubble.
@@iminumst7827 (I'm in, um... St. 7828. We're neighbors! 😁)

and then the New York Times exposes him and nobody cares - - - and worse, republicans attack the media for being nosy and daring to ask questions about truth.
"Blow them after a couple of beers..." lmfao
not only was Georgie a Volleyball Champ, but he also went over the Niagra Falls in a canoe and climbed Mount Everest in high heels. very impressive.
And he invented the Internet!
You forgot that he only climbed Mount Everest in high heels after experiencing the transformative fun, tears, ABBA reenactments, and self-actualization that took place aboard a pink tour bus named Priscilla.
@Dixie 06. Thot that's how hilllary got her name, Sir Edmond climbing in high heels
I heard he was also first man on the moon AND first man on Mars!
😂
George Santos’s biography will be a choose-your-own-adventure book. I think he is the greatest performance artist to ever live. It’s like Borat but he’s actually an elected official.
He might be Andy Kaufman's greatest prank...play dead and get the GOAT liar elected to Congress...chef's kiss 💋
Lol good one !
He won't win a second term
Ever heard of Donald trump?
@@antennawilde unless he runs as someone else
Bill, old conservative here if you aren't careful I'm going to end up liking you, great show !!
Lincoln's quote was unfinished...you can't fool all the people, all the time; you simply have to fool _enough_ of the people, _all_ the time.
There's a simple way to explain George Santos: He read the art of the deal.
I don't believe he can read
Hopefully while he is in the lockup, he will read the sequel "The Art of the Squeal, First person to the DA gets the Deal".
That puts him one up on Trump.
Unfortunately Giuliani got it wrong.
He read the Fart of the Steal.
You mean "reading" right?
Yesterday: Explain Herschel Walker.
Today: Explain George Santos.
Tomorrow: The bar keeps dropping so low I cannot imagine the joker to explain for tomorrow. 🤷🏻♂️😂
You said it beautifully.
How about a venus fly trap?
probably the Joker (from Batman), nominated supreme court justice.
If there's a bigger, fatter, lier than Santos or whatever the hell his name; It's only a matter of time before he/she pops up!
Try Traitor Trump running again. That low enough for you??
Any real job you get, as soon as they find out you lied on our resume, would let you go .... oh... this is not a real job so I guess it doesn't matter!
"This guy literally lied about chopping off a cat's nuts. And that takes a lot of balls!!"
Best line of this whole goldmine of a segment
😂😂😂😂 ..., im dead now.
This is the funniest Santos monologue I've seen. A lot of the night shows have hired someone to play him, but those still don't compare to this. Spot on!
You clearly haven't been on live chat. Have a go. Why not pretend to be Santos. See how that goes.😂
Definitely one of the better take downs. I couldn't stop laughing either. I think George secretly wants to go to prison so he can be raped daily in the showers. Such a busy tush!
Santos has a cactus plant growing out of his brain. A real prick.
@@whocares2087.1 agreed, I was pleasantly surprised. Hope it becomes a regular bit like Conan’s trump Obama call skits.
I think most people will still miss the point unfortunately....And that is that no tick box or t-shirt, or slogan should make you want to vote for someone, or be interested in them... It's funny... I just wear a maga hat rural areas and a blm hoodie in Brooklyn...And of course I care about neither 😂
Jon Stewart said it best when he described Santos as dreadfully mediocre.
Oh God no! He'd have to come a million miles to arrive at mediocrity.
A mediocre comment on Santos.
And these are the kind of Americans that think China is the enemy. No, China isn't. They are the guys who make all the products you use. China is a country that has achieved things on the global arena.
Deal with your internal hate-mongers first. Then, other nations' identities become clearer to you.
Stewart’s usually a lot smarter than that. Mediocre really is one of the last words I’d use to describe Santos. He’s a completely unprincipled pathological liar, right at home in the republican party. He’s a hardcore maga election denier. His opponent knew he was lying about everything, wanted to get it out there, but the media is so afraid of being called liberal/biased that they wouldn’t run the story.
Jon Stewart is mediocre. An intellectual paper tiger.
Santos should be jailed or sued by every group he claimed to be part off.
Plato said " Democracy is the worst form of government". Because it devolves into uninformed people voting about and for things they know nothing about. The democracy of the U. S. has finally run it's course. Santos is a prime example of this.
what would you suggest
A functional democracy requires a thinking population.
We don't have one anymore. It is quite literally an Idiocracy
If you are hazy on the details of Santos' life don't worry, so is he - what a statement 😀
tRUMP is also hazy about his life - he said his father "was born in a small town in Germany" and *I* know that his father was born in The Bronx, NY.
I'm 99% sure Santos is an unknown child of tRUMP's.
Like Biden?
@@cynicalsayonara7169 There you go mentioning Biden! This is about George Santos. Try to keep up.
@Kevin Strother I don't care about Santos, Biden or Trump in any realistic sense. I find MSNBC's partisanship funny just as I do Fox new's. Keep picking sides goober. Nothing will change for plebeians like you and me.
MSNBC is clearly covering for this geriatric old doter, and that seems to be A-okay with you. You're love for Biden, or any party of our dichotomus system, will get you nowhere.
@@cynicalsayonara7169 I am not sure what you are refering to. Has Biden lied about literally everything in his life? Is anything Santos has said true? From what I have heard he even lied about his name. It is beyond me how somebody who lied about everything - from his name, his education, parents to even his hobbies/activities can get elected to Congress.
That was the best analysis I have yet heard of how Santos got elected.
It’s wrong though, santos got lucky from redistricting that favorited him right before the election
I don’t watch much of Bills show, but this segment was hilarious, he cracked me up with the:
Oh and he’s gay!!!
🤣🤣🤣 I was like: Of course!!! Why not!!! He’s lied about everything, why not say that he’s gay too.🤣🤣
Man I was about dying the entire time... But that closing quip about the proud boys... Oh that's just the icing on the cake I'm dead
Santos was also the First Lady in 1776, invented the microchip BEFORE he invented electricity, he stormed the beaches of Normandy in 1944 and he broke the sound barrier in a rocket powered aircraft. He also won five gold medals in six consecutive Olympics, and he holds the world's record for free diving and can shoot an arrow across the United States in one shot.
Just wait until he becomes president and is granted psychic powers by the illuminati!
Yeah, excuse me, but I don't believe the arrow thing. That's just unpossible.
@@lexprontera8325 It was a magical arrow, believing is all that is necessary.
Hi John Andrews! You forgot two things he actually won 6 gold medals but they were holding his sixth metal in case he didn't finish but he did finish and don't forget he also invented the lie dector machine and he said that's his greatest achievement of all time! And he said that's the truth 😅🤣😅🎆😸😂
@@lexprontera8325 not according to George Santos it's not
"The guy's as straight as a corkscrew." - The Dane from "Miller's Crossing"
Seriously, you guys need to stop criticizing Santos. He was the first gay man to land on the beach at Normandy in 1944 and he deserves our utmost respect and gratitude.
I was married to a pathetical liar for almost 18 years. Before dying of cancer in 2009, he hurt his family so very much. These are such sick individuals. He is unfit for public office and needs to be held accountable and removed from office.
Biden's outright lies:
Was almost thrown out of law school because of cheating.
Graduated in the top half of his class when in fact he graduated near the bottom
Said he had three degrees when he has only one
Attended a black church right after Mass on Sunday. Not true.
Had to withdraw from the 1988 presidential campaign because of plagiarism
Marched in the Civil Rights parade with Martin Luther King. Not true.
Was arrested with Nelson Mandela. Not true
Said his family was killed by a drunk driver. Not true. The driver was not drunk
Said his house nearly burned to the ground when it was only a little kitchen fire that was put out in minutes by the fire department
Said his son Beau died in Iraq when he actually died in the United States of brain cancer.
Pinned a purple heart on his Uncle Frank 10 years after Uncle Frank died. There's no record Uncle Frank won a purple heart.
Said he came from a coal mining family. He did not
Said you couldn't get covered if you got vaccinated.
Lied about forgiving student loan debt when he knew he did not have the authority to do so
Lied about border patrol agents whipping migrants
Claim he settled the railroad strike what you did not.
This is just a short list. There are lots more where these came from and they came from Biden.
Biden will say or do anything knowing that he will not be held accountable. And that's true
@@stevenjones1024 it is soooo stupid to bring up someone else when we are talking about Santos! What Biden did or did not do, does in NO way excuse little George.
@@Paula-sw2ttthat's childish reasoning. it's soooo stupid to treat one political party differently than another for the same crime.
@@Paula-sw2tt "It is soooo stupid to bring up someone else when we are talking about Santos!"? You literally just did that in your statement, being "married to pathetic liar" who was also not George Santos. Did you realize this?
Im divorcing my wife because just like you, she has reasoned in her mind that i'm a piece of shit and waiting on insurance money. I'll be damned if I die let her have it.
Why would you stay married to him for so long and shit on him publicly after his death?
Kinda messed up.
Thank you Bill!! Wish everyone listened to you! We would be better!
I've had to cut back on my listening. I can't stand the juvenile hooting and hollering from his audience. Its got to be the same damned idiot(s) week after week.
How're you doing? I Pray this year brings great Happiness, Joy, and Peace to you, and your Household. I pray may the Blessing of the Lord be with you, your words in this video are so amazing, I would love to talk to you. Is John Patrick from Nashville Tennessee, where are you from?
I'm a conservative, and I love Bill Maher!
That final slap at the proud boys was vicious 👋💥
"He lies like a goose shits. If he is not doing it at the very moment he's about to." That is George Santos, or whoever he really is, in a nutshell.
Loved that! And if you r going to lie why Volley Ball?
I believe he's one of the unknown tRUMP spawn. Drats! We just can't abort that family - except for Mary L. Trump who keeps telling us about her uncle and few choose to believe her.
No, this George Santos in a nutshell; “Hey, I’m George Santos, and I’m in an awfully big nutshell. Why am I in here? Oh…, fitting, I suppose”.
As someone who frequently has to clean goose shit off a dragon boat dock on the Delaware River, I know exactly what Bill means.
Hahaha that line about the Proud Boys in the end. Simply delicious.
"US Rep. George A. Santos-R also considered himself a phenomenal title winner in *America's Got Talent* show... All the way!"
The insane part is that Santos has been caught in all these lies and yet the GOP refuses to oust him from Congress. If they really think he's fit to serve our nation, I no longer have any hope for our country at all.
Some have called for his resignation, but they can’t just oust him unless it’s proven he broke campaign finance laws. Every single Republican should put heat on him, and even if he resigns and is replaced by a Democrat in a special election, they still have the numbers. It’s shocking he’s not in jail for this, I can’t believe it’s not against the law
It’s cause they can’t oust him while lying to the public on a daily basis about policy.
As strange as this may sound, he is there for a purpose. Kinda Like AOC. I try and dissuade Republicans from giving money to her opponents. There is no one who is going to wreck the dems more than her! This guy is taking shots at the right people. He claimed to have worked with the head of Calpers in California. That woman is gonna go down because of him. This guy has a purpose, let it play out.
@@staticcouch135 No, it's much more basic than that. If Santos is forced to resign, there would be a special election to take his place. Since (as Bill noted) it's a pretty blue district, the seat would probably flip. They're already holding a very thin majority; they really don't want to lose one. They're keeping him because in their minds he's better than whatever Democrat would take his place.
Well we thought that about Biden, but when we realized you guys didn't give two shits, then we checked out. Who cares? What's he going to do, vote for something we like, vote for something we don't like? I mean... if ANYONE cared at all about honesty, then we'd have Trump back in office. Good luck guys! We're all in the same sinking boat. Hope you brought your life preserver!
Santos is pretty much like 'Yeah, I lied to get here, so what. I'm already here so I won, you can't do anything about it.' What a class act.
I guess he figures if everyone else can lie, so can he.
The man of all seasons/ The lady of substance.
Thank goodness for Bill Maher. A genuine thinker who will criticise both sides because he isn’t brainwashed in to thinking one is always right. A great segment and he is 100% correct.
He's like the candidate an AI chat bot would write if you exposed it to hours and hours of news media segments, Facebook comments, and political debates
Nice comment.
🤣🤣🤣
He reminds me of a Democrat: a liar and sexual deviant. LOL
Brilliant!👍This comment needs more likes!!
That´s so true 😏you nailed it
That Oscars joke was perfection.
Happy Birthday Bill
love your comedy and comments
I love how freaking honest you are❤
The fact that the GOP haven't kicked him out says all you need to know about the GOP
It’s tribe, no one gives a fuck 😂
That bit at the end about how the proud boys saw Santos was perfect.
As an international viewer, im shocked he made it so far lying his way to the top.
He was in the 1996 worldcup where he scored 10 goals
"If you're gonna lie, why volleyball?"😆🤣
As a brazilian, i must say i feel SO ashamed by this guy's lies...I swear, most brazilians are honest, hard working and loving people, this guy does not represent us.
Why should you have to applogize for someone just because they were born on the same chunk of earth as you?
Name an ethnic group that doesn't have its fair share of criminals
Or you're lying too.
No, but he does represent what America is now and maybe what it’s always been, just not quite as obvious.🤔
really ? i thought all brazillians were either off duty cops or moto robbers ? huh !
That happy ending was absolutely brutal 😂😂
This is one of the wittiest New rules segments in a while. This is Real Time Satire at it's best
"and the Proud Boys saw him as someone who would blow them after a couple of beers and not tell anyone". PURE GOLD! 🤣😂😆
This little jab was the perfect way to end the clip.
Ah yes, the I don't like them therefore they must be gay joke. That was not great writing there. That is Amy Schumer level quality to be honest.
The proud boys is "just an idea" you conspiracy theorist.
I agree Rigo! In addition, all politicians should have to pass an in depth mental health exam. If it was a criminal offense to lie to the public we would probably have 2 people serving in Congress. 😊
1:18 is just perfection 😂 "He lies like a goose shits!"

I figured ot out: Santos was your birthday present Bill Mahr, a you had to do is read his bio, press releases and you have 80% of your show! And he can't accuse you of plagiarism because..... you'll never know if /or what is true!
Happy belated birthday, Bill Maher!🎂🥂🌿🚬
I love Bill's elbow on table gangster lean, seen it many times!
It raises a lot of questions about the vetting process in our political system. It shows how gutted our investigative reporting capabilities are. Those are some big cracks he slipped through.
Agreed. Voter behavior seems a problem as well. Liars like Santos will get away with telling voters the buzzwords they want to hear since voters don't do their own research and/or they vote for the wrong choice just for the laughs.
There is plenty of investigative reporting, from the same places that have done it for years. What has changed is that many people stopped trusting the news media.
What has been gutted is the ability of many voters to think critically, to listen to information that doesn't fit their existing view of things, and to reconsider what they think when they get new information.
What vetting process? 😅😅😅
No what it raises is the voters responsibility to know these candidates before they cast their ballot. You exemplify what's wrong. Leave it up to someone else to tell us about these cons and charlatans.
@@Kentrc11 Reading articles online isn’t “research”. Do you say “literally” a lot as well? How about a dude that likes watching his wife get fucked? Do you think that’s a “cuck” as well?
Blame Santos, but also blame the voters who were eager to believe his lies. Somebody once said, “In a democracy the people always get the government they deserve.”
Conservative here. Santos should be fired immediately. The truth still matters to most us…Democrat or Republican. 🇺🇸
I used to live in George Santos' district. Although it does lean Democrat, there's still lots of rich Republican donors living there. Definitely in Great Neck and Whitestone.
“I would say,you can’t make this shit up,but he just made this shit up”🤣🤣🤣☠️
😕😏🫣🤔😂🤣🥲whew
Just like Bill made up this idea that dems voted for Santos, even though it’s demonstrably untrue?
@@leahstone9308 Lol.
Bill hit the nail on the head. Everyone (including the media) is too lazy to do due diligence on the candidates, they only hear what they want to hear. The voters got played perfectly. Santos is a (new very stable) genius and he will make president one day, mark my words.
Local newspapera covered some of his lies
Happy Birthday Billy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bill, you make me laugh uproariously and want to cry at the same time due to the stupidity of others.
Does anyone remember the film Zelig (1983)? It's about a man who's able to literally change physically to match up with whoever he's around. Brilliant and still relevant, clearly. It was written by, directed by and stars George Santos, though he happens to look a lot like Woody Allen most of the time.
I was going to post comment about Zelig. People got Santos confused with Woody Allen, because they both wear glasses. It was such an artistic masterpiece that George Santos won several Oscars for his star performance, screenplay and direction. He was the first Latino Black Gay Jew so honored by the Academy. In his speech, he warmly dedicated his awards to his beloved deceased mother, who died tragically on 9/11 or sometime thereafter.
@@zyrosqrd2552 Next up: the Nobel Peace Prize. I will gladly accept for him if he can't (understandably) pull himself away from the Israeli Olympic hockey team, or the Kenya one he also plays for...
Reminds me more of "The Distinguished Gentleman" starring Eddie Murphy as a man who conned his way into the Congress.
@@zyrosqrd2552 Hysterical! Best comment. You could write for Maher.
I just showed Zelig to my son. A perfect way to introduce Woody Allen to a teen.
This is why i like vote by mail because you get to sit down with your ballet and really check out every candidate and google what they're about
You should do that even if you're voting in person. But vote by mail is pretty nice.
You can do that before you officially vote at the polls. Sample ballots exist for a reason.
You make it sound as if it's impossible to get information on a candidate any other way.
lol, what a stupid statement.
You should know the candidates inside out well before it comes time to vote
I'm impressed you actually take the time to research candidates. Do you look who donates to their campaigns? Because that is the next step in a high information voter.
Spot on assessment.
You are the best in so many ways!
i really do wish there were more shows like Real Time. The importance of having people with opposing views debate one another, is very essential
Absolutely! The only other show with opposing views is Cuomo. Awesome show
Don't think Americans have opposing views anymore. They have opposing facts and we're at a boiling point right now
@@sean78745 Agreed!
What, the king of false equivalency? Maher's been dancing the same line of pleasing everybody for a long time now.
There are literally dozens. Ever heard of podcasts?
Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became household names, but let us never forget the third hero on that Mission, George Santos!
He made contact with the moon people he found after going miles down a moon cave. What a guy!
Michael Collins.
This made me laugh out loud 😁
Thank you for being objective and highlighting the absurdity of both parties!!
Santos is best described as a stand up comedic materials that will hit big stages.
Happy birthday bill. Thanks for the laughs and your great analyses of our times. Greetings from Germany
This is the best breakdown of George Santos that I've ever seen!
It’s just a lie that dems voted for him, or that he somehow appealed to them taking every opportunity to proclaim “liberals are out to destroy America!”. Straight up fiction.
He would make a good demorat
You are superb! 😂😂
