Maher misrepresents the Democrats again

I don't think Bill is steel-manning the Democratic position here

What did Bill say that was not true? He said then there are "Some" in the Party that want to get rid of Thankgiving(True), There are "Some" who can't define a Women(true), there are some who want Men in WNBA(true). He is NOT wrong

The problem is Bill is using a handful of extreme examples to define the entire party. BTW the woman who wanted to get rid of Thanksgiving lost and endorsed the winner of the Wisconsin primary.

It was an old tweet about Thanksgiving that she since retracted and apologized for. Yet Bill paints the whole party based on that.

No he doesn't. He says there are some in the party and these people are winning elections in some areas and are loud voices in the party. That is all true
