I heard Bill Maher used his first day back to dump on Biden

[SouthernDem4ever]

and suggest we should keep trump. When will Bill Maher move to Fux Nooze. That's where he belongs.

1. FFS!!! n/t

2. Maher didn't suggest to "keep trump."

He suggested that candidate Biden would lose to trump, and, while acknowledging the wonderful job Joe has done in four years, that a younger candidate would reenergize Democrats in a way Biden would not.

8. Thanks for the correction

I said "I heard" so you have every right to correct me, even though your correction doesn't make me feel any better about Maher. It hasn't been just lately either.

3. Predictable

I’m glad he’s showing his true colors

4. keep trump where?

[SouthernDem4ever]

7. Somewhere where Maher can use him to prop up ratings

just like all the other media companies.

[BeyondGeography]

5. He wants to defeat Trump

You can dump on him for wanting a Democratic alternative to Biden in ‘24 but get your facts straight.

9. He was on trump's rear all night, including the "advice for trump in jail." And, the Biden thing

was much more nuanced than people seem to think. He did not suggest even once that we should keep trump. I'd love to see a clip of when he said that.

[beaglelover]

10. You heard wrong.

[SouthernDem4ever]

16. You're too late

I have already been chastised.

[beaglelover]

17. I wasn't trying to chastise you.

I apologize if you took it that way.

12. To me

Bill Maher is an irrelevant nobody. I can't understand how anyone can watch him.

[In It to Win It]

14. He wants to be beat Trump, but he was saying Joe Biden is not the person to do it...

That 2020 is not 2024 and Joe Biden is in a weaker position now than in 2020; he doesn't energize the Democratic base; that Joe Biden has done good things but it's time for Joe Biden to move on because Trump may very well beat Joe Biden this time.

15. During the show, he described himself as an "old-school" liberal.

He ain't woke. He hates variable pronouns.

But, he will support the Democrats.

On balance, the show was down the middle in politics, and reasonably funny.

18. ...

Bill has set the bar so low that regurgitating Republican talking point's while giving basic criticisms of Trump is seen as being good enough lol.
