Bill Maher revealed why things are “not looking good” for Democrats as the presidential election approaches.
On his political talk show “Real Time” with Bill Maher HBO comedian Bill Maher reacted sharply to Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz's participation in a campaign event with black men scheduled for Friday evening.
“It's not a good sign when you have an African American candidate (Kamala Harris) and yet you need to increase support among black men,” Maher said in his monologue.
He added with a hint of sarcasm, “And who better to connect with young black men than Tim Walz?” Because apparently Michael Bublé was unavailable.
'Meanwhile, Kim Kardashian “hello?” he continued, referring to the media mogul's dating history with black men.
Bill Maher revealed why “things aren't looking good for Democrats” in the upcoming presidential election
“It's not a good sign when you have an African-American candidate (Kamala Harris) and yet you have to increase support among black men,” Maher said in his monologue
Maher noted that even former President Barack Obama chided young black men for not voting for Kamala Harris.
“But obviously for some young people, especially younger black men, it's a difficult choice. “Harris is African-American and Trump has a sneaker line,” he said.
Maher's jabs at the Harris-Walz campaign come shortly after the vice presidential candidate's recent tryout let's back up to his comments about the role of the Electoral College.
Asked about his recent comments suggesting that the Electoral College may no longer be useful — during a campaign in which he and running mate Kamala Harris are leading in national polls but could still lose to Donald Trump in key swing states — Walz clarified his position .
“What I'm trying to emphasize is that there are people who believe that every vote has to count in every state, but I think some people don't think that's the case,” Walz said in an interview on ABC's “Good Morning America, Michael Strahan.”
He then explained where he and Harris stand on the campaign.
He added with a hint of sarcasm, “And who better to connect with young black men than Tim Walz?” Because apparently Michael Bublé was unavailable.”
“We recognize that the campaign's position is clear, not their position. Their position and mine is to make sure everyone understands that their voice, no matter what state they are in, matters.”
“You said, 'I think we all know the Electoral College has to go,'” Strahan asked him at the beginning of the exchange. “But the campaign came out later that evening and they said that wasn't their position.”
“So this is something you and Vice President Harris disagree on,” Strahan asked Walz.
“I have said this in the past that she has been very clear on this and that the campaign and my position are the campaign's position,” Walz responded.
This came after Walz sharply criticized Donald Trump after the former president warned that the entire country could “end up like Detroit.”
While visiting Warren, Michigan, as part of his plant tour, Walz focused on Trump's remarks to the Detroit Economic Club the day before.
In that speech, Trump stated, “If she becomes your president, the whole country will be like Detroit.” You'll have a mess on your hands,” he told a bipartisan group of business leaders.
Walz responded sharply, saying: “Donald Trump and JD Vance have a completely different view of America. Yesterday, Trump said that the whole country would end up like Detroit, but we know that Detroit is going through a comeback, a renaissance.
He continued: “As a Minnesota Twins fan, I know Detroit beat us, but the city is growing, crime is down and factories are opening. But these guys? All they know about production is bull**** production,” drawing laughter from the crowd.
