Bill Maher Calls Out Left’s Moral Superiority, Tells Lefties To Lay Off Trump Supporters

While the Democrats are trying to use the January 6 Capitol riot as a huge club to destroy the Trump movement and the former president’s Republican allies, one notorious Trump-hater is actually doing the opposite and insisting that the left tone down their hatred for Trumpers so we can all start living more peacefully.

Bill Maher, in a recent interview to AL.com about his Birmingham stand-up shows, actually called for peace between conservatives and liberals. 

Notably, he mentioned that the left needs to stop hating Trump supporters because they are “half the country.” He also blamed the left for being the main side that is acting as though it’s a “superior moral paragon” to the other side with their politics. 

Wow. Wow. This is amazing. One of Trump’s most ardent supporters and Trump/Russia conspiracists of the past few years could defend Trump supporters. This probably speaks less about Maher than it does about the insane American left.

Maher began by calling for a decrease in temperature from both sides. “This country is falling apart at the seams,” he said, adding, “Half the people are not going to self-deport.”

He mentioned how everyone’s talking tough about their political enemies, but when it really comes down to it, we are all just dumping on our neighbors who probably have no intention to move out of our country. “You see these tweets and memes about owning and destroying the other side. You need to get over this. You’re not owning or destroying anybody,” he said.

The star of HBO’s Real Time With Bill Maher offered a modest solution to the problem, saying that if people just started seeing the humanity in one another and dropping politics every once in a while, they might not be so at each other’s throats. “Because when you take the politics out of the discussion — and this is coming from a person who made his living talking politics — you find that people are just people, and you can’t hate them.”

He continued on with his surprise defense of Trump supporters. In effect, he admitted that Trump’s left is really ramping-up the rhetoric.

“I constantly say it, you can hate Trump. You can’t hate all the people who like him — it’s half the country,” Maher said. He then claimed, “And you can’t set yourself up as some sort of superior moral paragon, because this is your political belief, and somebody else has another one.”

Maher specified that it’s the left that really embraces this moral superiority, even calling it that side’s “Achilles’ heel.” “There are obviously areas where, yes, if somebody’s advocating cannibalism, I think you can claim the moral high ground if you’re anti. I feel like that’s the Achilles heel of the left right now.” 

Let’s just say one of them.
