Hardcore troubadour 12,631 Posted September 11, 2019 Maher has had Michael Moore on his show numerous times. Along with others like Anna Navarro and I never heard him say anything to them about their weight. So it's ok for him to point his finger at those beneath him, but not his elitist pals. Phony Fock. I mean , Michael Moore for gods sake. Is there a more physically disgusting person around? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GobbleDog 816 Posted September 11, 2019 Not really ground breaking - Americans have been disproportionately overweight for decades. Bill Maher's rant was just a really long fat joke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trumpurethra 42 Posted September 11, 2019 Bill Maher is a misogynistic, pretentious, arrogant, insufferable azzhole. I agree with most of his politics and find him funny in small doses but definitely the kind of dude I would want to punch in the face if I was around him more than 5 mins.

MDC 5,890 Posted September 11, 2019 Mayer isn’t entirely wrong but he’s overstating his case for effect and I think he’s one of those guys who gives his hot takes entirely to be controversial or shocking. I agree with his politics a lot and still think he’s a doosh. That thing with the circus fat man appeared on Andrew Sullivan’s blog 10 years ago FWIW.

Funny how you guys can feel that way about someone... but not really willing to accept that a lot of Trump supporters feel the exact same way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're happy he's there, and want him there for 4 more years, but we will be happy when he's gone too... as long as we keep things moving in the right direction.

Or they think Trump is a doosh but like his politics? I think Maher at least has mostly rational positions, while I may disagree with him on some things, at least he brings rationality to the table. Same for Trump, there are elements of him with which i disagree, but his political positions are spot-on for the most part. I suspect I would likely not care for either one of them, and want to urgently punch both in the face if I spent any time with them.....but you need not agree with everything about everyone.....especially if they are being effective.....

I totally accept that Trump supporters feel that way. I think you’re wrong and he’s ultimately just another country club Republican only with a side of fake populism. But I get that you feel that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was a Democrat for decades! Then he gained common sense and logic and became a Republican. Still is a jackazz though. Always was. That part of him never changed.

Yeah, cause a guy telling jokes on television and the commander in chief of the armed services, the enforcer of the nation's law, should totally have the same standard. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well looking at his policies we’ve got a POTUS who likes tax cuts, deregulation and deficit spending like every other Republican, so ... I get why Republicans like Republican policies. Personally I don’t see much difference between Trump and say Jeb except the former cheats on his wife and behaves like an ass hole on Twitter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is truth to much of this, except comparing Trump to the Bush's limp country club attitudes toward social policy. H.W. was the last one with balls. Cheney ran the country's social policies.

He doesn’t know what he's talking about, and it’s not gonna help anybody,” said Roker. I feel this is offensive to back doors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
