Shorter Maher: I think now I will get a gig at profitable FOX.

I figured Maher would take some credit for this but, I have to admit, he does lay out a compelling case!

“And by the end of the weekend, by dinnertime Monday, he’s dropped as a speaker at CPAC. Then he’s dropped by Breitbart, and his book deal falls through. As I say, sunlight is the best disinfectant. You’re welcome.”

Now if we could just get him off his Islamophobia campaign…

this little, impish, British fag? You fucking schoolgirls.

Pay cable…no thanks.
(I wanted to get a comment in before the thread is shut down…:wink: )

Ha! Maher he thinks he exposed Milo. What actually happened was Milo exposed him.

Meh. Maher can be so utterly abrasive, smug, trite and annoying sometimes. Ultimately, he’s a political ally for us on most things, but his delivery has gone way downhill. The older he gets, the more crotchety and mean-spirited he seems to get, and he’s certainly always been somewhat of a know-it-all type.

Yeah…I think that’s really hurt him in terms of people’s perception of him.

if Maher had actually shone a little sunlight on the aired version then yes, he could claim some credit.

Instead, he gave him more publicity, simpered like a schoolgirl, commiserated about free speech, avoided confrontation and ended up closer to gaslighting.

I think the credit for Milo’s downfall belongs to Milo.

I enjoy a good Bill Maher rant as much as the next person, and there have been some good ones.

But the idea that his interview with Yiannopoulos helped bring the guy down is nonsense. Yiannopoulos crashed and burned because of his pro-pedophilia comments, which had nothing to do with Maher’s interview.

Maher is a smug ass. His pompous, self-righteous attitude shows the worst of the Liberal elite.

I am a Democrat in a red state, BTW, and Maher really gets us out here in ‘flyover’ country wrong. Maher should do a month of shows from Missoula, MT or Boise, ID and get an idea of what happens between the coasts.

One more aside- Maher cannot in good conscience take credit for this media-hungry pedophile’s downfall without pinning some blame on himself for Ann Coulter.

Maher thought he was interviewing Ann Coulter.

Larry Wilmore delivered the sunshine.

“A little cuckoo?”

No Bill, he’s a pedophile, a racist, a misogynist, a homophobe and a white supremacist. We are not silly schoolgirls for rejecting him. We are cleansing our society of poison.

You’re 100% wrong, Maher. You deserve no credit. You sucked his ass so hard it left shit stains on your smirky mug.

Yeah and you’re as bad as Trump at taking credit for something you didn’t do anything to cause - you just had him on and you didn’t do it to make him look bad - Milo did that himself.

Jesus you’re arrogant, Bill.

Both Maher and Milo often seek attention by blurting gratuitous pee pee references. This is viewed by many as hip and edgy.

BTW, Mr. Y’s downfall was precipitated by the exposure of one of his old video / audio recordings supporting pedophilia. Maher’s connection or responsibility for that is not clear.

Do not ever call Pres Trump a narcissist without first checking yourself…

Maher is getting more sanctimonious and less funny.

I arose from my bed this morning and there was oxygen in the atmosphere. You don’t have to drop to your knees and kiss my ring to thank me. A simple bow from the waste will do.
