American comedian and TV host Bill Maher faces criticism from Democrats who say his rhetoric has changed. Maher denies this and attributes the shift to changes in the left, vowing to continue calling out what he perceives as problematic views.
Maher discussed criticism from Democrats over his recent statements on pro-Palestinian protests and highlighted left-wing support for Hamas as evidenced by protests on college campuses.
Maher criticized the American political left for changes in beliefs on gender, race, free speech, and other controversial topics, deeming these ideas as "stupid," while acknowledging transformations in both left and right.
Maher criticized both major American political parties, stating that each side sees the other as an existential threat, leading to a troubling state in the country, and pointed out instances of individuals on both sides supporting enemies of America rather than the opposing political party within the country.
The comedian and author named the last chapter of his new book "Civil War," expressing his belief that the US is in a situation where a civil war could occur, and warned about the possibility of Donald Trump not conceding the election, suggesting trouble regardless of the outcome in November.
