In reply to the discussion: Bill Maher bashes people who bash Trump [View all]walkingman
(10,934 posts)58. Maher learned a long time ago that if you say something snarky or divisive
it would get a lot of attention....that is amplified on social media. This is the world we live in today, and it leads to constant bickering, usually over simplistic BS, while the real problems go on without notice.
It does lead to an avenue to vent so I guess it does have some merit - but very little in my opinion.

Of course he's different Bill. That's the way rapists do when they're trying to charm their prey.

I'll never understand why people pay any attention to what Bill Maher has to say.
