Bill Maher offers Trump a check to leave office: 'You love money'

By Marty Johnson - 10/19/19
Liberal comedian and commentator Bill Maher offered President Trump $1 million to resign during his show Friday night.
"Just take my check for $1 million," Maher, a long-standing Trump critic, said on HBO's "Real Time."
"I bet I could get another 1,000 people just from here to the beach — including Malibu, of course — who would pay that much to see you resign," Maher added.
Maher concluded, "Mr. President, it is really very simple. You love money. We hate you."
The host has long called for Trump's impeachment, saying in January, "It’s pretty hard to convict — but if you don’t do it with him, where is the bar?"

"And what sort of damage is he going to do for the next two years that he is in this office?" he added at the time.
However, Maher warned at the end of September of the potential political ramifications of pursuing Trump's impeachment.
"If we do this, the country is going to be paralyzed," the host remarked at the time.
"I'm not saying don't. ... It's going to be paralyzed for a very long time, and all of the oxygen in the room will be taken by this," he added.
Those comments came after House Democrats formally launched an impeachment inquiry into Trump focused on his July 25 phone call with Ukraine's president.

That myth misses by a mile.

He identifies as a 'libertarian'.

 

[Origanalist]

He identifies as a 'libertarian'.

Bruce Jenner thinks he's a woman.

 

[acptulsa]

It would be more fun to see him self-identify as a professional linebacker.

 

[Anti Globalist]

Bill Maher should identify as a fucking idiot. He certainly wouldn't be wrong about that.

 

[oyarde]

Maher is just a typical east coast democrat that thinks weed should be legal because he likes it . He is more nazi than libertarian, he is your AOC type of dem. You know the type . Kind of like Satan but know less about economics .

I was thinking along similar lines. Since when is Bill Maher a libertarian?

 

[kpitcher]

I'll catch real time on occasion, some of his guests are interesting and new rules can be funny. I recall him giving time to Rand during the last election cycle and that was a decent interview. I don't think Maher still self identifies as a libertarian. Although he's had Penn Jillette on the show and he's a good example of a semi-famous libertarian.

No shit...Bill Maher is many things but libertarian he is not.

 

[Anti Federalist]

And say whatever you want about Trump, one thing that he is not in this for is the money.

LOL

My take from researching his life long business/political contributions/etc. record is that it is not during his presidency, but after. The dude loves him some eminent domain, among many other things. But, I am sure you know about these things already. Or don't you?

 

[euphemia]

He’s not a libertarian. He’s not a conservative, either, although they used to call him that, too.

Bill is every bit as much a libertarian as The Don is conservative.

 

[fisharmor]

He identifies as a 'libertarian'.

This is literally it... I've heard him do it in the past, claim to be libertarian.

Bill is every bit as much a libertarian as The Don is conservative.

This is also literally it... I'll add that Bill is every bit as much a libertarian as Bob Barr or Gary Johnson....
...I mean that's the public face of Libertarianism, the official party.
In that environment it's no wonder know-nothings like Bill Maher think they're libertarian.

You honestly think men like Trump or Bloomberg, multiple billionaires prior to entering politics, are in it for the money?

People still pay attention to Bill Maher? I stopped paying any attention to him when he suddenly became Obama's 2008 head cheerleader after building an entire career on bashing both parties.

(Funny how the same thing happened with Trump and anti-establishment commentators like AJ and Mark Dice and others.)

There are some libertarians who would have bashed Ron if he won just to make sure they remained "pure".

Yeah that would have been terrible if Ron has campaigned on how terrible the 2008 bubble was and ending the Fed then, once elected, called on the Fed to lower rates and start QE. Or campaigned on ending wars then sent even more military. He would have deserved every bit of bashing, in your entirely fictional example of something that never happened and have no way of proving.

If Libertarian = irrelevant, than I suppose Bill Maher could be one.
