“I think the problem that people have with Bill, I have the same son of leading legitimacy and credit to this,” said Carville, saying that Maher is normalizing Trump, who said “s-” in the constitution of the United States.
Maher, a pulmonary time critic or Trump, had dinner with Trump at the White House earlier this month. While finally recapitated the meeting of his HBO show last week, the host married how “kind and measured” that the president was about Doens.
“I never felt that I had to walk on egg shells around it,” Maher told his audience “in real time.” “And honestly, I voted for Clinton and Obama, but I would never feel comfortable talking to them in the way I could talk to Donald Trump. This is how it was put.
Duration an appearance in podcast later that week, Maher responded to the reaction It has from the left for the meeting.
“I had the opportunity to go to the White House and talk to the president and not give up my principles. It seems that nobody noticed that,” said Maher. “I did not go to Maga. I had the opportunity to talk to Donald Trump and tell him things that maybe he never listens, literally to tell power. Shouldn’t I take that opportunity?”
In his program, Hunt told Carville that he thought that Maher had “had” tried to find Trump charming.
“I think Bill Maher was. It was there and he talked about what Trump was pleasant.
“But, you know, Bill is only the last of a complete series of people who obtained personal charm, if you wish, or some really bad people,” Hunt continued.
Carville intervened, stating that while He considers that Maher is a “friend” He believes he was also deceived.
“Believe [Maher’s] An extremely naive man, “said the strategist, braking his audience with which the comedian with” someone who is in the Constitution. “
“That is exactly what it does: it has been caught by lying 36,411 times or whatever that number … someone convicted of 34 serious crimes in a competent jurisdiction court, said a person who establishes each branch you can imagine.
Hunt replied: “I agree with you in naivety. When you lie with dogs, you get fleas.”
