Comic and political pundit Bill Maher scolded former Vice President Al Gore for comparing President Donald Trump to Nazis just days after he lashed out at comedian Larry David for comparing Trump to Hitler.
David cut deeply at Maher with a satirical op-ed mocking the Real Time hosts account of a White House visit by equating it to a humanizing dinner with Hitler. Entitled, My Dinner With Adolf, Davids piece mimicked Mahers post-Trump explications.
Gore, meanwhile, drew attention this week when he told the San Francisco Climate Week conference that the scale and scope of the ongoing attacks on liberty are literally unprecedented, and went on to draw parallels to the Nazis by quoting philosopher Theodor Adorno.
On Friday nights edition of HBOs Real Time with Bill Maher, the interview guest was Al Gore, former vice president under Bill Clinton, environmentalist, and co-founder of The Climate Reality Project

No one but a white supremacist Nazi would allow a Nazi-saluting asshole like elon musk to remain in his admin...not to mention the rest of his clown car cabinet.

(6,487 posts)Everything is all about him. As Gore said several times, he did not call them Nazis. He listed parallels with Trump Administration and Nazi policies as noted by a German philosopher.
We quit watching Real Time as Maher has entered his Lenny Bruce period with his anti-woke shtick, but we watched this one episode because Gore and Schiff were guests.

(2,472 posts)His worries extend to Trumps Cabinet picks. Al Gore is deeply concerned about Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Trumps nominee to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, especially about his opposition to vaccines.

The con is behaving like a fascist and the fact that Maher can't see that is a poor look for him.
