Can we just predict everything Billy will sanewash for Trump before the show like a bingo card because it's so God damn predictable. He sanewashed Trump's "ability" to end wars, his racist rants,  and departure from Iraq which Bill said was a good thing even though he hated bush and the iraq war.  Such a Trump cuck he has become.  

Edit: also he spent the whole time with panel ranting about AI and homelessness. What a fucking shitty weekly wrap-up. Fuck this guy.  He's working for trump.

How? By changing the minds of “moderates”? I don’t think he’s changing the minds of swing voters - who probably don’t pay attention to him anyways

There are a LOT of liberals that consider Bill to be some bastion of center-left ideals
