From Fox News: HBO host Bill Maher urged Americans to “get over the fantasy” that they are people of “core convictions and deeply held beliefs” on an episode of “Real Time” Friday night.
Maher criticized Americans for flip-flopping on their beliefs, saying they base their values on what’s popular with their political party.
“They only care which side is saying something,” he said, citing electric vehicles (EVs) as an example. “This car used to be ‘fire.’ Now it’s on fire,” Maher said while showing footage of Teslas being burned at a dealership.
“Conversely, MAGA Nation used to hate EVs two years ago,” he added. “Seventy-one percent of Republicans said they would not consider buying an electric car. Trump said they were for, quote, ‘radical left fascists, Marxists and communists.’ Now he’s selling them on the White House lawn.”
Maher then called out Democrats over their flip-flopping on the issue of keeping kids in school.
Quoting a line from a book about the detrimental effects closing schools had on children during the COVID-19 pandemic, Maher said, “‘The Academy of Pediatrics were very strongly in favor of getting kids into schools, but as soon as Trump came out in favor of reopening, they completely reversed their position.'”
