Maher is sort of an enigma. Some of his views are spot-on and contradict modern Leftist orthodoxy in an honest way, and there are certain topics where he calls bullshit well on Conservatives too. And then some of his other ideas make him sound loony. It's like there's no middle ground with him.

I honestly think part of him kind of likes what Trump represents if he was honest with himself, but his previous personal disputes won't allow him to think it. Trump sued him several years back.

This interview with Shapiro was different. Usually when he has a Conservative on, they suck each other off about how much they hate political correctness. Felt like he was purposely trying to be tough on Shapiro. He probably got shit after he basically dry humped Milo on live TV.

ya he's honest. he calls out the left. i saw a clip of his from last month where he made fun of the left how they win all the social media wars like a bunch of 12 year old girls but can't win things that matter : elections. It was a great commentary.

On the other side, there is nobody as honest imo. everyone is in w/ Trump right now on the right. The ones that aren't are leaving.

The myth of the Republican exodus combined with the stubborn refusal to acknowledge that people are walking away from the Democrats in droves is breeding a level of complacency on the left that is rapidly approaching October 2016 levels.

You really believe that? Seems to me the left is as motivated as ever. They just aren’t nearly as organized and cohesive as the right and they still have no clue how to appeal to the people who don’t live in big cities on the coasts. IOW they still have no idea how to win national elections.

"Two years ago, young white people favored Democrats over Republicans for Congress by a margin of 47 to 33 percent," reports Reuters, but "that gap vanished by this year, with 39 percent supporting each party."

They have basically been hoping millennials will turn out and overwhelm Trump's aging base, but polling suggests they are leaving the Democrats.

I think the Dems are waiting for Generation Z.

The future holds the possibility to be great or terrible, and since it has not yet occurred it remains simultaneously both.

Arguments should be emotional. People are emotional. This shit ain't debate club.

I'm a big dumb shitlib baby

They can be if they'll persuade people that way.

Maher is fine. He isn't nearly as edgy as he used to be. Which is why it's kinda weird he doesn't pull more mainstream guests. I know for a long time people we're afraid to go on his show but anymore it's pretty tame.

This past season, he started to do the 2 panelists that were just Dems. It just doesn't work. I loved where he had 3 guests and 2 of them were Republicans. I would play a game with my wife, find the crazy Republican.

definitely. i think its the political climate though. shit is so polarized those people dont even want to be seen on mahers show. sad really... i dont even think maher is mean to republicans, his stupid audience is way worse.

100% agree with this. I think Maher is ok with the opposite view, but the audience doesn't want to hear it. They wanna boo at it.

yeah its even weird when maher says really stupid things, they just blindly stay quiet and act like he didnt mean it. like that hope for recession, that was bad. and then the next show he doubled down on it, and they cheered. now, i understand why he doubled down, thats how you win an argument (trump), but the premise is still bad. he claimed we survive recessions... but that's the country. inside those recessions are millions of ruined families and higher suicide rates. i know the last one i lost everything, and i certainly would never wish for that again. there are other ways to deal with trump

Working at a small family owned business, we lost a lot of business from the crash in 07/08. Combine that with those $4 gas prices, it was killing us. I don't think Trump is the answer, but I am tired of the Democrat party. I am still a registered Democrat though.

Weird, I see Dolphin looking in my asshole

Jim Carrey wasn't completely obnoxious from what I saw.

Les Grobstein's huge hog is proof that God has a sense of humor, isn't it?

Good interview with Jonathon Haidt.

Would be better if Maher would stfu for a minute.
