Maher vs Bannon

Bill Maher is a vile POS. But he is entertaining. I will watch this interview just out of curiosity.

Absolutely no depth to that interview. Maher comes off as an arrogant confused tool.

Maher is an establishment shill.

I used to like Maher when he pretended to be a libertarian. Now days, he's just a fellating minion of the DNC. As for Bannon, like him or loathe him, his a patriot.

Because he exposes your alt-right bullshit for what it is. As the saying goes, the truth hurts.

Yeah, just like Rush Limbaugh exposed alt-left bullshit.

He is a white nationalist like some terbites.

So the consensus seems to be he is an Alt Right, white nationalist Democrat.........

Maher is logical and measured. An excellent debater, always keeps himself under control.

Limbaugh is a loudmouth blowhard who rants and raves. He just likes to rile people up with his bombast and falls for conspiracy theories.

I'm not sure that you are correct. Maher and Limbaugh are polemicists. Limbaugh has been at it much longer and his audience and reach dwarfs that of Maher's. I discovered Rush at the end of the eighties while living down South. He may be loud, but he certainly is not a conspiracy theorist of any kind and he's political instincts are right on the money- that comes from constant interactions from the ordinary Americans- even if that's only over the airwaves. Rush has been and is on first name basis with who is who in the American conservatism(and not only) including the current President and has spin free access to pretty much anyone he wants. That makes his opinions extremely valuable and informed. Maher is a comedian who's trying to be a political commentator who likes to rely on hyperbole and half of the narrative. He plays to his audience far more than Rush plays to his. And, of course, Maher is completely disconnected from most of America. He's a bubble dweller.

Also irrelevant. I am sure that you have heard the comment that "The average person is not very bright, and half the population is dumber than that.

As if the bombastic, loud Rush never overstates anything.

Everybody with a regular show has to do this. They need to maintain their ratings. The biggest player to their audience is trump to his base.

Maybe in terms of square miles. Keep in mind that more people voted for Hillary, so it seems the general population is more left leaning, as he is.

And who gives a fuck that Hillary won the popular vote on the strength of California and NY??? Only unserious and uninformed poseurs. Maher's audience?

Bill is an entertainer first and will say things to get a rise out of his audience. There are many, many examples of Bill losing control.
