Bill Maher praised Donald Trump on his weekly HBO show Real Time for overcoming controversies on the campaign trail.
Maher said that even though he doesn’t agree with Trump a lot, he “gets him” in terms of how the Republican electorate wants someone to lead without “bending to anyone’s bullshit.”
This says so much about the electorate. Even the evangelicals want to be called on their sh*t. They are desperate to have somebody lead them. Somebody say, “You know what, I just don’t bend to your bullsh*t.” And Donald Trump, I gotta say, I don’t agree with him on a lot , but I kinda get him. We’ve kinda been doing the same thing.
