Bill Maher Demolishes Trump's Manliness

[ancianita]

I want the Sanders/Maher ticket.

Bill's history lesson on put-downs of women is a classic setup for demolishing Trump's claims to manliness.

1. It's disappointing that Maher still relies on sexist language

for his humor.

The audience wasn't that enthusiastic about his schtick tonight.

2. Almost everything about Maher is disappointing, but especially that.

He could not be more different from Jon Stewart in this respect (and others). And yet there are often such comparisons.

7. Yes. But then it is very difficult to measure up to Jon Stewart, isn't it?

Jon Stewart just set a standard far too high.

I miss Jon Stewart's show. Don't you?

3. he is sexist

he recognizes sexism in others but not himself

[Feeling the Bern]

5. Let's spell it out: COMEDIAN!

George Carlin did an entire bit on how he thought rape was funny.

Chris Rock did an entire bit on shaking the shit out of his woman.

Honestly, the sensitivity police and word police need to go off duty. It's called COMEDY!!!

8. In this regard, I disagree

Trump needs to be outed lol

[underpants]

9. He's using the term in a sarcastic way towards Trump

It cuts right at Trump's whole MANLY MAN bullsh|+

4. I just see Maher flipping Trump's sexism back at him. The TV/broadway clips of women's

portrayals is the setup for making fun of a man who's bought past portrayals of women hook, line and sinker.

Maher puts Trump's and Clinton's strengths in perspective here.
