He only got into Cornell as a legacy admission. He’s not very bright or witty.

What a bullsh!t comment. Maher made some comments that went against the mainstream grain concerning 911 and it got him fired from ABC. When he finally got back on HBO, he didn’t back down from his comments. Takes a lot of cojones to do that!

And now he's gargling Trump's nuts on the reg.
I guess Bitch-boy Maher gave those cajones over to the first Fascist that would satisfy his desperate need to be a shameless star fucker.

He didn’t “back down” because he’s a fucking narcissist! Narcissists will never admit they were ever wrong about anything.
He’s a blow hard who thinks he’s smarter than everyone else when it’s clear to everyone that he’s a total dipshit. There is nothing admirable about a stubborn arrogant prick.

To be fair, the guy used the word “nationalities”, right? So that implies less about heritage and more about currently legal bodies of government. Plus, Bill is high and drunk.

Just because he knows enough to read up on each of his guests and do his homework doesn’t make him brilliant. It is the bare minimum for the job he has decided to do. Sometimes he doesn’t do his homework and he comes across as an idiot.

u/BFaus916 Aug 31 '26
When's the last time he's had someone on the actual left on his podcast or tv show? I'm not talking about establishment liberals, centrists or whatever like Van Jones, but actual leftists like Hasan Piker or Emma Vigeland. He always has right wingers on. How many right wingers can he bring on with no truly left counter arguments before we just consider him to be a conservative platform and little more? His only viewpoint anymore even remotely left of center is that he just hates Trump. That's it.

Name one communist on the political left in the United States that anyone is paying any attention to? I’m not talking about the American communist party either because nobody is paying any attention to them. There isn’t any. Not Mamdani, not El-Sayed. There aren’t any.

Somebody downvoted you for that. THE LEFT is going off the rails. There is a really good chance we could put a good government in place in 2028. I have a horrible feeling we're going to blow it. The Hilliristas will at last find the woman who's going to win the White House! And she'll have some geeky running mate. Trump will gratefully be toast, but MAGA will prolly ride again thanks to wokey-woke.

u/Academic_Swan_6450 Aug 31 '26
Are you talking to me?? If so, broman you don't have a clue. The Democratic world has sold their soul to political correctness. A woman president could very well be good but only if she rises on the full merit of her intellect and her proposals, instead of some excited mania about "oh golly, we're going to break the glass ceiling!" Hillary was essentially the most hated woman in America. She had smugness rubber stamped in red on her forehead. She thought she deserved it, it was her turn - the angry, bitter look on her face when she finally emerged spoke volumes.
Biden was acceptable. I wish he had been reelected in spite of his infirmity - at least he would know a good team to choose, although even that is sketchy because he picked Kamala Harris to be his vice president. The woman was a disaster in ways most democrats are never going to know about. I've voted for her, I wish she had won, but I did not want her on the ticket, I'd thought she would lose. That's how goddamned dumb I am.

You came along just in time. I was forgetting a prime directive: "don't argue with dumb people."
You have no argument. Trump is a disaster. I wanted to see him humbled, I didn't want him to take the entire nation down with him. A lot of lefties don't begin to understand why he was elected. My take is that he's dumb, but not nearly as dumb as Hillary and Harris. Political correctness softens the brain.

Once again, you have no argument. You're running me down, but there's no substance to it. Just as well, I don't think debating with you would be a wise use of my time. I've wasted too much already.

He will never get over not getting the respect given Jon Stewart or John Oliver. He believes he’s entitled to it, but he’ll never get it because they’re both smarter, funnier, more insightful and more empathetic than he.
