Liberal firebrand Bill Maher just did the unthinkable โ he praised Donald Trumpโs political instincts. The Real Time host, who has spent years roasting the former president, admitted Trump might be one of the most effective politicians alive today.
Maherโs Jaw-Dropping Admission About Trump
During a recent appearance on Chris Cuomoโs Club Random podcast, Maher dropped a bombshell:
โTrump is one of the most effective politicians,โ Maher said. โWhatever you think of the policy and him as a personโฆ just as a politician.โ
For a comedian who built his career mocking Trump, this was like hearing a vegan praise a steakhouse.
Two Trump Moments That Won Over Maher
Maher pointed to two specific instances where even he had to respect Trumpโs political theater:
- The Taliban Threat
When Trump showed Taliban leaders satellite images of their homes and warned: โIf one American is hurt, just know I know where you live.โ
Maherโs reaction? โI f**ing love that!โ* - Defending New York
Trump once snarled: โWhen you come after New York, you got to go through me.โ
Maher, a New Yorker himself, couldnโt help but smile: โHometown boy.โ
Maher Brutally Roasts Democrats
The comedian didnโt hold back on his own partyโs failures:
โThe Democrats have to find that guy,โ Maher said. โBut theyโve been searching for years and theyโre still coming up empty.โ
He mocked their obsession with messaging:
โThey always say, โThey didnโt hear our message.โ Yeah, they heard it โ and they hate it.โ
Trumpโs Secret Weapon? Heโs โDaddyโ
Maher argued Trumpโs appeal isnโt about policy โ itโs about raw, unfiltered dominance:
โThis guy just voices his interior monologue,โ Maher said. โAnd voters eat it up.โ
Then came the line that broke the internet:
โHe is daddy. People want a daddy. And Democrats keep putting up Tims.โ
Inside Maherโs Secret Trump Meeting
The real shocker? Maher recently met with Trump at the White House alongside Kid Rock. The trio reportedly bonded over โending wokeness and securing the border.โ
While Maher teased heโll reveal more details April 11, one thingโs clear: after years of mocking Trump, even this liberal icon canโt deny the manโs political genius.
โHe has that thing,โ Maher admitted. โAnd no one else has it.โ
The question now: Will Democrats finally listen?
