Maher delivers final message to undecided voters: It may get worse under Trump
Bill Maher warned viewers that things may get worse if former President Trump gets a second term in The White House.
“So, dear Christmas Eve voter, I say to you: things aren’t that bad, but they may get a hell of a lot worse under the rule of a mad king,” Maher said on his show “Real Time” on Friday night, referring to Trump and addressing undecided voters he dubbed the “Christmas Eve shoppers of politics.”
“Do I love everything about Kamala? No. Who told you you get to love everything?” Maher added.
Earlier in the show, Maher, a long-time critic of Trump, spoke to “Christmas Eve” voters about Democratic messaging.
“Look, you obviously don’t like Trump or you’d be in that camp already, but you’re still torn and I’m the guy who keeps saying I get why. You wanted more reassurance that the Democrat isn’t going to go along with every aggressively anti-common sense idea that comes out of the woke mind virus, which yes, is a thing. And if she [Harris] loses, that would be mainly why,” Maher said.
He continued, saying that Democrats “should have been selling” the currently low poverty rates and unemployment rates, and high manufacturing rates and stock market to undecided voters.
“If Trump was president with this economy it would be 24/7 of, ‘We have the greatest economy ever in the history of the world, maybe the universe, many people are saying it,'” Maher said.
Maher went further and defended Biden’s response to inflation. Inflation levels have dropped to near pre-pandemic levels, according to the Associated Press.
“Yes, everything at the dollar stores is costs a dollar fifty now but Biden didn’t invent ‘food costs money,'” Maher said.
