Comedian Bill Maher defended bashing late-night host Jimmy Kimmels wife for sending her family a pre-election ultimatum, warning relatives not to vote for President Donald Trump, and lamented that Kimmel being mad at him was proof of a liberal-woke schism in the Democratic Party.
Maher had mocked Kimmels wife, Molly McNearney, on HBOs Real Time on November 21 after she disclosed on a podcast that she had severed ties with members of her family over their support for the president. McNearney, who works as a co-head writer and executive producer of her husbands ABC show, also revealed that she had warned family members that a vote for Trump felt like a vote against her family.
At the time, Maher said he could list 100 reasons not to vote for Trump but would never present it as an ultimatum. Instead, he urged Democrats to examine why 77 million Americans didnt want to trust you with taking power.
Reflecting on the fallout on Sunday, Maher told pundit Ana Kasparian during a sit-down on his own Club Random Podcast that Kimmel and his wife were angry at him, for which he apologized before doubling down on his stance.

That's not an apology Maher.

Sorry that anyone in Molly's family would think of "voting" for the Neo Nazi trying to destroy America.
