1. Fuck Bill Maher

[Nigrum Cattus]

17. Agreed

He just sounds like a scared old man now

[hlthe2b]

2. Maher believes everything that lying, corrupt-as-hell SOB Netanyahu says...

No surprise-- given his grifting, fawning subjugation to Trump and his idiocy as well.

[SocialDemocrat61]

3. Susan Lucci could school

Maher on Iran. He's an idiot.

[Beartracks]

4. Why Susan Lucci?

Just curious.

=============

[SocialDemocrat61]

6. Why not?

Is there another Susan you would recommend?

[LearnedHand]

26. Even [a soap opera star like] Susan Lucci could school him

[nuxvomica]

5. Maher is both extremely supercilious and naive

The former is often a sign of the latter.

[Kingofalldems]

8. Makes me even angrier his show is promoted here on DU.

Every Friday.

[SocialDemocrat61]

23. He still has fans here

[roscoeroscoe]

9. She could have gone into Netanyahu's real reasons, but he cut her off

Just like Trump, the war is a distraction from failures and corruption at home.

[Deuxcents]

16. He interjected a few times. If he'd stfu and listen to someone that was involved, he might just learn something

[drmeow]

32. He doesn't WANT to learn anything

because he doesn't care if he's right or not as long as his view prevails.

[Lars39]

10. He's arguing with someone who actually saw the intel, who actually saw Israel's validation of this intel.

He’s an idiot.

[twodogsbarking]

11. Like explaining the theory of relativity to my dog.

[Intractable]

21. Dogs intuitively understand relative motion and curved space.

That's how they catch the ball!

[twodogsbarking]

24. So they don't need no 'splainin.

[Jim__]

12. Based on that short excerpt, he didn't learn anything. No criticism of Susan Rice.

You can't teach someone who's determined not to learn.

[dem4decades]

13. He thinks he knows more than his guest, that's why he sucks ass.

He kept trying to cut in to undermine her argument because Bibi told him something.

Maher, you're a zit on the ass of a warthog, go away, just go away.

[Martin Eden]

14. In the 2020 presidential primary, Susan Rice was among my favored candidates

When Joe Biden announced he would select a woman of color for his running mate, I hoped it would be Susan Rice. She was likely the most qualified (regardless of race or gender) to step in as Commander-in-Chief if something happened to the president, who was 82 years old at the end of his term.

15. I can't get the video to play

What did she say?

[orleans]

18. i looked for the video on youtube for you & it's not there

i looked in the liberal youtubers forum and it's not there; rhiannon 12866 explains "I apologize that there are so few "official" videos available, this practice by HBO appears to have started last season. If any are uploaded in the meantime, I'll definitely add them. But I wanted to share what's available before the "bootleg" videos are gone. "

i can get the videos to play on twitter/x and also on bsky. maybe if you don't have an account on those it doesn't play? i don't know.

sorry. it's too much for me to try and make up a transcript of what she said.

[edhopper]

20. A short summary

Would be okay.

[orleans]

31. try this link. there's the video of her speaking and words on the screen

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DZPtDgvjGF9/

just close the box where it tells you to sign in or whatever, which is what i do, and the video is playing anyway.

[Intractable]

19. I watched the whole show. Maher is schizoid. There's pro-Trump Bill Maher and anti-Trump Bill Maher.

In terms of body language, facial expressions, and vocal tone, pro-Trump Bill seems disingenuous.

Anti-Trump Bill seems more natural.

[underpants]

27. Bill is a cheap date.

Trump had him over for dinner at the White House one time and Bill is still blowing him almost a year later.

I used to be a fan of his. My wife bought us tickets to a show of his in Roanoke. Great seats third row. Pretty good show but the sound kept cutting out.

[BootinUp]

22. The problem is not with the schooling it is with

The schooled.

[twodogsbarking]

25. Hammer head meet nail.

[JustAnotherGen]

28. Maher

Isn't fit to drink.her dirty bathwater.

[themaguffin]

29. Susan Rice is awesome

but the post is hyperbole.

[Bluepinky]

30. Can't watch Maher anymore; he's another privileged, out of touch multimillionaire.

Too much pot and too much money has addled his brain.

[Betty Boom]

33. Oh how I loathe that arrogant ass

I can’t believe I ever watched that show in the past. He’s such a smirking jerk and thinks he knows so much more than everybody else.

[fujiyamasan]

34. For a while I watched him fairly regularly

I wouldn’t agree with him all the time, but I found him pretty funny and he would get great digs in at republicans. I never found him brilliant. He always had a giant ego and was a complete narcissist, but it seems those sides of his personality overtook his humorous side and eventually he just became a scold for one side.

Basically he just became boring
