I have a different take on the dinner. If you watch his full monologue on the dinner, what Bill was describing related to how the felon was at dinner vs how the felon acts as POTUS is striking.
Bill was telling us all is that the felon is a psychopath. Full stop.
The man is 'gracious' when you suck his dick, or give him money, otherwise he just copies the person in front of him, as he has no character of his own, just nastiness and revenge, hate and cruelty, and entitlement, and every bad thing, except killing ...that will come.
So done with Bill Maher. I was a fan during the Politically Incorrect & Religulous days, but it's over. Playing victim & complaining about liberals is all he has now. The bottom line is he just doesn't care about people. Certainly not the marginalized & least fortunate. He never grew. He never will.
You've shown yourself to be the fraud I've always suspected you to be, Bill Maher. You're insecure and pretty much a blow hard. Your dinner with the top Nazi is all the proof we need.
I think Bill forgot that Trump is a Sociopath and a con man. He knew you would report about this dinner on your show. He played the game, and played you, Bill! As soon as Bill left the Whitehouse, Trump was talking shit about him. Bill,u did exactly what he wanted you to. Don the Con!!
I) it’s not good for his ratings. 2) he once said that Trump is the spawn of an affair between Trumps mom and an orangutan. Trumped sued him for it. Now they are friends?
Trump love bombing Bill Maher just shows the cunning narcissist side of the con. Naive people fall for that stuff despite the evidence to the contrary.
Thank you for saying exactly what I was thinking as I watched him last night. I think I am done with Real Time since I’ve slowly been losing respect for the show and its host.
Bill Maher just joined the Joe Scarborough Club. Everything Trump touches turns to shit, including Bill Maher. His career will never recover and it will be well deserved.
You've only stuck him in your basket NOW?!?!?
👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀
I stopped watching his show when he said he wanted President Obama to go into international negotiations like that convicted thug Shug Knight, and that's YEARS before he called himself a "house n-word.'
Maher again looking for notoriety. Any publicity good, bad but never indifferent is what he’s known for. He’s also known for telling Boston to “just get over it” 3 days after a terrorist bombing took the lives, limbs and hearing of multiple innocent adults and children.
I have disagreed with Joe Walsh and I have agreed with Joe Walsh but the joe Walsh of 2025 is authentic and sensible and if ever there was a Joe Walsh post that was 110% spot on this it !!!!!
I've been following him for a while now; he's actually a patriot with a kind heart. Even when I disagree with him, he explains his views in detail and remains kind, even to those who say very cruel things to him. He respects people, but he's deeply disturbed rightfully about Trump.
Bill Maher got conned and played. And so easily. Psychopaths can be charming when it suits their purposes. That's part of what makes them a psychopath.
Bill doesn't understand narcissist behavior. They can be very charming to your face and still be a horrible person. This whole Bill Maher story just confirms for me how truly awful and dangerous narcissist Trump is for this country. Unpredictable and chaotic.
Bill Maher is a tiny little man with a hugely overblown opinion of himself and his influence. I stopped watching 5 years ago and it’s done wonders for my mental health. He’s beyond ridiculous.
Bill used to believe that climate change was an overriding issue. Now he sucks up to the "drill, baby.drill", "clean coal" President. What a bloody sell-out.
He’s been talking out of both sides of his mouth for a long time now. He’s run his course, the sooner HBO realizes it the better their programming will be. If you stand for nothing, it’s real easy to fall for bullshit. The state of this country is proof. I was going to say our country but it’s not.
It's like when certain black dudes that said trump was good to them back in the day, well, why wouldn't he if he were making money off of them, he's a business man, not very good but still. They were bamboozled and didn't even know.
Shame!!!! Let's face it - America is no longer immune to authoritarian tactics. Protesters, lawyers, educators—even librarians—face real retaliation. History shows: that 3.5% can spark change. #Resist #Authoritarianism #DissentMatters #SaveDemocracy #ActNow
I agree with you! I’ve been threatened by magas several times and I’m going to say whatever i want and yes, dissent matters!!! We need to speak up about injustice loudly and stand up to the people doing it too
Yes, Hitler served a nice strudel too.
What a dipshit. Maher is just another person normalizing a cruel, ignorant, incompetent, selfish, bigoted, fascist. This is how tyrants stay in power. You are complicit. Balance whatever phony charm you think you saw with the suffering he causes & apologize.
Ask how Gavin Newsom is doing with his ridiculous podcast. Or Gretchen Whittmer after visiting the WH. They are both sellouts. Worse they all try to justify it by gaslighting us. Sorry we aren’t stupid.
What exactly did Whitmer do? You understand magats plotted to kidnap her? So she went into the oval office? So fucking what? She's the gov of a state. She's already had her life threatened by his followers, what should she have done?
Kick him in the balls?
I suspect our politics are the same but I’m not sure that it’s a betrayal to talk to others with who you don’t agree.
Bannon is scum to me but that is clearer when he has talk to a person that will check him.
HBO doesn't release ratings but you can get his content on @cnn.com with your basic cable package for free within 24 hrs so I doubt he's drawing large at HBO. After 20 years Bill and I broke up a few years ago and my life has been better . Bill hasn't aged well and suits the "get off my lawn crowd "
I’m with you. I quit watching him 3 years ago. Prior to that, he was actually funny, and seemed to be on the side of Democracy. But, he had become quite mean spirited and unfunny. Didn’t like the way he handled some of his guests. I don’t miss him at all. I miss George Carlin, though💙🇺🇸
💯 I think it was a mistake on Mango Mussolini's part to think having Maher carry water for him would be of benefit. Bill is just Roseanne Barr with a penis (not sure of that) - neither are funny any more or influential. Just get off my lawn energy 24/7.
He is gracious and quiet in private because there can be only so much hatred and greed by one person and he uses all of his quota when he is around other people.
Maher has been a joke for years. They keep trying to rewrite the story. I admire your passion for Justice in our country. Wish everyone felt the same way.
Another one to put on my FUCK YOU list 😡
Thank you, Joe, for informing those of us who don't normally watch this man but whom we THOUGHT was on the side of DEMOCRACY
Thank you, Joe. Honestly, Bill went around a corner and over a ledge a long time ago, IMO. No dictator wanna be should ever be normalized. Shame on him.
Bill Maher’s lying.
Trump is at Pizza Rat level
on the Outer Borough Hierarchy
of Gutter Scum.
Everyone in New York and
New Jersey knows about it.
Trump’s father used to conspire
with criminals to sell spoiled
meat to supermarkets in Queens.
Donald Trump is a FAR
more disgusting scumbag
than that.
He does think too highly of himself way do I, but we do hate him. He’s a piece of shit and has been long before this. He’s trending into the septic tank.
Trump is a modern day Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. It doesn’t matter that he showed Maher his Dr. Jekyll side, he shows us Mr. Hyde much more often enough to see through his game. Shame on you Maher, I don’t like you but I didn’t think you were naive.
You can’t underestimate the charm and charisma of a malignant narcissist. That’s how they suck people into their void. Many, if not most, people who have met T have said the same things. But does the charming, rational exterior get you to accept the atrocities? That’s the goal.
The man dated Ann Coulter. He’s going to do what he thinks is best for his ratings. He will be the equivalent of kid rock in his field of comedy/commentator.
Maher on flu vaccinations in 2009: "Why would you let them be the ones to stick a disease into your arm? I would never get a swine flu vaccine or any vaccine. I don’t trust the government, especially with my health."
In private, he's a sexual predator - admitted and adjudicated.
Where else in this society would an adjudicated rapist be the best choice available for hire?
Manager @ Taco Bell?
Fourth grade teacher?
Police Chief?
Security Guard?
Bathroom Attendant?
Gardener?
All Bill Maher is saying is that acting one way in public to those with less power and acting another way to other people with money in private is the definition of being "NOT FAKE"....how is that so hard to understand. Other politicians should learn from this.
It's bad for his ratings but it does show, me at least, that none of 47’s activity is born of senility or "no plan."
This is carefully planned, skillfully executed, and utterly malignant.
I understand both viewpoints. Bill is coming at it from the perspective that you're not changing anyone's mind by refusing to engage. But I certainly believe that Trump is the enemy and it's not right to normalize him. It's certainly a nuanced situation.
Maher appeared resigned to the fact that nothing he said to Trump would make a tangible difference to his platform or policies. His great revelation was that The Private Trump acted far more human and empathetic than The Public Trump.
Rather than expound on how if anything that made Trump seem like more of a calculating sociopath, Maher took a defensive posture, castigating liberals who would dare criticize him for saying anything complimentary about Trump at all.
Fk Bill he’s a loser like all of the other worshippers of the felon, he’s come a long way since he was sued by Trump….a little greedy man just like all the people surrounding the felon
Small update (lol?): Talk to mom about how he went to Trump and had dinner with him / having Steve Bannon on, and she seemed receptive to me telling her that he's capitulating.
I'd say he didn't ask the right questions. If I had an interview with trump, it would end with him ordering the Secret Service to take me out back and shoot me in the head.
Bill was also dazzled by Elon.. that is what a good con person does.. Bill went to an expensive college and his parents probably paid for it.. he has probably never missed a meal in his life.. he has survived a lot of years in the stand up business.. he tries to remain on the edge-that is his con
And given everything that the world sees on a daily basis, if he should act as a normal measured human being in private - MAKES HIM EVEN MORE PSYCHOTIC
Huh. So that's why that piece of shit is back in the news. Haven't bothered with him since before Obama's second term cause it was obvious then that he was absolute garbage.
Maher’s take would have been much more interesting had he flipped his argument & pointed out what a phony Trump is in public. How his brand is fraud. Instead he chose to pat himself on the back for being open-minded. That makes 2 frauds.
Yup. Maher completely missed the point that for Trump, EVERY situation involving communication is, from his personal viewpoint, public. Whether the audience is the world or an individual, he will instinctively behave in whatever way gets him most immediate reward from that particular audience.
"Hey guys, Trump isn't such a bad guy after all. He gave me knowing looks, didn't yell at me, laughed at my jokes. . . Hey! He's not such a bad guy after all." FUCK YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK BILL (dipshit) MAHER.
What is so hard about grasping that Trump says/does whatever helps Trump? And how has hiding, purity & refusing interviews/podcasts/engaging with “the other side” worked out for Dems?
I am sorry. Bill, but how someone treats you (a presenting straight, white, male) in private means little. I also believe the people who have cozied up to trump since the election are, if not exploring, feeling free to express the part of their selves that they have kept hidden
Preach it Joe! Bill Maher has lost his fucking mind if he ever really had one to begin with. Trump is just practicing alternating pain and pleasure on Maher to keep him in line. Or, maybe Bill is taking a course from Trump on how it’s done. Enjoy your Stockholm Syndrome Bill Maher.
If you ever followed Maher, he nvr claimed to be a Dem. But he used to be angrily vocal abt things like Presidents lying us into wars & other such evils.
He really flipped during Covid when public health policies made it impossible for him to make💰
Maybe remind him that started with his new pal?
Maher jumped the shark during Covid.I was barely hanging on until the episode filmed at his house & he called his dogs dumb/stupid.He was ranting about baseball not being attended (he's part owner of a team) so yeah, $ was his concern.Also, constantly blaming "unhealthy" people for dying from Covid.
Bill Maher has always considered himself edgy for trying to maintain objectivity with the most despised people. He just ends up looking like a duplicitous narcissist.
What I took away from what @realbillmaher.bsky.social said about Trump is that Trump isn’t clueless, as many think. Bill is comforted that Trump was … nicer … & “self-aware” in person. I thought, oh, he isn’t incompetent. He knows exactly what he’s doing. I did not find comfort there.
Hitler turned on the charm too.
All the questions people asked about how Hitler was able to gain power so quickly is being answered in real time by watching people like Maher, Rogan …
That's true but it should also be noted that he never had more than 50% of the vote. Most of his country hated him, the idea that everyone swooned for him everywhere he went is a myth that has snowballed over time since the war's end.
Like the defense lawyers and Universities giving in to Trump racist anti-DEI rhetoric, Bill’s shallow ass is saving his own hide. He’s turned into Joe Manchin.
Comments
Bill was telling us all is that the felon is a psychopath. Full stop.
You only care about yourself.
Never ever defend Orange Satan. You're a traitor and a disgrace. Fuck off and die!

He's been trash for a long while.
I LOVE that film.
There's a huge difference between being indifferent and being dead to me.
Which is to say, the parts written by other people.

I used to enjoy the discourse on his show, but am refusing to watch it now.
He’s dumb
Can’t be trusted Except for his love for animals…..
I guess that includes the Con
He needs to be shunned nonstop as we work to remove him.
Thank you, Joe, for informing those of us who don't normally watch this man but whom we THOUGHT was on the side of DEMOCRACY

Oh, and he is not funny at all, never was!
This is because monsters are often cowardly beasts

I just like... ugh. I don't have the energy to explain to her why Bill Maher is so shitty lol. She's just like, "Well I think he's funny, so..."
Great. But he's a piece of shit, Mom, lol.
kind of way
And smarmy as fuck for no reason. God I hate that guy.
It's a start. Hopefully she stops watching him.
It's just frustrating I suppose, but hey, she's a big girl, she can make her own decisions.
but you could have fooled me...
The gold might have blinded him
I used to really enjoy Bill Maher. Not any longer.
He interviewed Steve Bannon last night too. Steve Bannon!
I've seen enough.
Maher is not a Democrat.
He really flipped during Covid when public health policies made it impossible for him to make💰
Maybe remind him that started with his new pal?
We’ve heard for years what a ladies man he is… I could never see it, even when I thought he was funny.
Full disclosure: I own two of his “New Rules” books 🤷♀️
All the questions people asked about how Hitler was able to gain power so quickly is being answered in real time by watching people like Maher, Rogan …
Sooner or later their true colors show through.
Plz RESHARE on all social media
Hopefully #Anonymous will see this
