Bill Maher is f***ing sick of Republicans and Democrats who reflexively villainize everyone with whom they disagree … and he’s got receipts of how stupid hard-core partisans have become.
For starters, the far right is trying to sell a story that Biden has destroyed America. Rep. Nancy Mace said since Joe Biden took office America has become a raging “s*** show.” Bill concedes he wouldn’t pick Joe as his “Squid Games” partner, but he says it’s actually Nancy who’s full of s*** when you look at the facts.
Fact is, the ‘Real Time’ host says Biden’s not perfect by any stretch, but he’s done a lot of good.

The funniest thing … he points to Rep. Lauren Boebert who grouses we are now dependent on Saudi oil. Not true, BM says, and warns her not to jerk him off!
On the other side, people who don’t like Ron DeSantis say he’s worse than Donald Trump. Bill shows that just not true, even if you strongly disagree with his views.
The real point … mindless partisanship. If you disagree with someone, then they’re the worst people who ever lived. There’s no good in them … just evil. And that’s why the largest voting block these days is independents, because they’re sick of the tribalism.
And the media plays right into this. Cable networks find no good in the people with whom they disagree, and no bad in the people they embrace. And cable networks aren’t alone.
