Bill Maher makes startling admission to JD Vance about the future of his Democratic support [View all]

Sorry for a post about Maher, but I thought this was newsworthy plus shows how pathetic Maher has become.

“Real Time” host Bill Maher, speaking with Vice President JD Vance Friday, maligned the recent election victories in New York by three democratic socialist candidates and said his vote may soon land with a different party.

“If this is where the Democratic Party is going, with the democratic socialists. This obsession with Israel, the Jew hating, with, they don’t believe in capitalism, no prisons. If this is where they’re going, my vote is in play,” Maher said.

“OK, I like to hear that,” Vance said.

Maher added that he has always considered both parties when casting his vote, but has previously always come down on the side of the Democrats.
