I’ve often said that Bill Maher is like a broken clock that’s right every few months. Now is one of those times. In his ‘New Rule’ monologue this weekend, he went after Democrats for not recognizing the fact that the insane, radical left is dragging them down.
His monologue is full of great lines.
Maher begins by noting that former Bush White House press secretary Dana Perino recently suggested on FOX News that Democrats should consider running Maher for president because he understands what their party needs.
Maher is making the point that he has not changed, but the left has and now some people on the right understand him better than they do. He does all of this to laughter and applause from his liberal audience.
Let’s get this straight. It’s not me who’s changed. It’s the left. Who is now made up of a small contingent who’ve gone mental and a large contingent who refuse to call them out for it. But I will. That’s why I’m a hero at FOX these days. Which shows just how much liberals have their head up their ass, because if they really thought about it, they would’ve made me a hero on their media. But that can’t happen in this ridiculous new era of mind-numbing partisanship, where if I keep it real about the nonsense in the Democratic party, it makes me an instant hero to Republicans.
Maher is not a fan of ‘woke’ politics. He makes it quite clear.
It’s not my fault that the party of FDR and JFK is turning into the party of LOL and WTF. Members of Congress tweeting things like cancel rent, cancel mortgage, and no more policing or incarceration. Declaring that capitalism is slavery, canceling Lincoln and Dr. Seuss. Teaching children they’re oppressors, and math is racist. Making Mr. Potato head gender-neutral, and now an emoji for pregnant men. Real. I’m not making it up. California just passed a law, requiring large retailers to have a non-gendered toy section. A non-gendered toy section? Isn’t Ken enough? We need a law for that? You have to inject yourselves into everything? From where you can throw a Frisbee to who can braid hair?
He then circles back to COVID and regulations based on virtue-signaling.
This is why so many people, by the way, were triggered by COVID policies. They were already sick of rules. Regulation should be a good issue for Democrats. It’s certainly one they’re associated with. And I think the average voter would agree that banks and chemical plants and drug companies need watching. Telling a company, you can’t dump the waste from your hog farm straight into the water supply. We’re mostly all for that. But Democrats have become a parody of themselves, just making rules to make rules because it makes you feel like you’re a better person. Making sure that everything bad, never happens again, which you can never fully do. It just makes everyone else’s life a drag.
While describing the ridiculous hoops he had to jump through to put solar power on his property, Maher spits fire with this line.
Democrats have to stop thinking that what the voters dream about is to be hassled.
There’s so much good stuff here. The video was posted to YouTube on Friday night and it already has 25,000 likes. Watch the whole thing below:
Maher is probably never going to identify as a conservative, but the far left is turning him against Democrats. You love to see it.
