The ’Real Time’ host asked Donald Trump’s defenders how much more they can take up for the president after the latest round of indictments.
Robert Mueller’s latest indictment of 13 Russians and some businesses with connections to meddling in the 2016 election held to the headlines on Friday. It also gave Bill Maher a chance to celebrate in his monologue and pinpoint this as the moment where Donald Trump’s defenders have to start asking some real questions. The host calls Trump “plainly a traitor” while describing the type of activities these Russian “trolls” undertook to “sow discord” among Americans.
Maher also mentions how Trump broke another campaign promise by saying he wouldn’t cut Medicare, but then immediately did just that with the budget he just passed. The Real Time host speaks directly to the Trump supporters tuning in to hate-watch his show at this point, comparing them to Drew Barrymore’s character in 50 First Dates.
Later in the show, Maher was joined by former Mexican president and current Trump critic Vicente Fox to bash the president a little bit more, discuss the continued threat of “the wall” on the border with Mexico, and the general feeling towards the war on drugs. Fox came with a sign saying he “tunneled” his way to the interview and stood by his claim that Mexico would not pay for the “f*cken” wall.

So if the indictments had anti Trump rallies being organized by Russians, (which it does) does that make Clinton a traitor?
Are you just being pedantic? Or do you not understand that the whole Russian agenda was making America worse, by deepening the divide between it’s citizens? They organized rallies at the same place same time for both Muslims and Anti-Muslim Texans. Because they are only pro-Russia. They are not pro-Trump, but because Trump becoming president was in their best interest, they worked to make it happen. OF FUCKING COURSE Russia would want the unqualified, temperamental, unprofessional, irrational man-baby ruling the US instead of an actual politician. That doesn’t make them pro-Trump or anti-Hillary, it just makes them anti-USA. The fact that a country dumping vast resources into getting whichever candidate was worse for America elected chose Trump tells you all you need to know.
