Bill Maher Mocks Kamala Harris & Slams Democrats Over Patriotism
Martin Holmes
Real Time host Bill Maher tore into Democrats on Friday (June 19) for being scared to embrace patriotism amid Americas 250 birthday celebrations.
...
He then turned his attention to Democrats and former Vice President Kamala Harris, saying, Every election year, Democrats seem to remember patriotism for about an hour at their convention when theyre trying to win back swing voters. The whole message of Kamalas speech in 2024 was take back the flag. Thats why she talked about America like a pageant contestant.
After showing a clip from Harris speech at the convention, in which she said, the greatest privilege on Earth is the privilege and pride of being an American, Maher quipped, Hard to believe she lost, huh?
Well, you cant take back the flag in an hour if the rest of the time you treat patriotism as something vaguely embarrassing, he added. It shouldnt be!

OP
Like Rogain he's resorting to stand up 101. Play the room. It's all he's got left. He's not even funny anymore n/t

Fuck Bill Maher, and why does anyone think he should have a TV program to bloviate on?

I guess he hasn't heard of America's Block Party and feels all of America should be attending Trump's bullshit event.
