Watched that entire clip. Bill Maher is deranged. How do you see something like this and nod and agree?

Come on, guys. Please at least think differently. Y'all are becoming so fricking predictable. Every single thread "Trump is a God. Obama was a moron." Stop regurgitating what conservative talking heads say and think about WHY you feel that way.

"Penis pump that runs on coal" was pretty funny.

But Maher, as usual, has no facts, just emotion. He knows NOTHING about anything going on with the FBI. He assumes the FBI is infallible, Obama was the most honest president ever, and Hillary was some exquisite candidate that was robbed.

But Maher is right about one thing - the president IS above the law to some extent. But this didn't start with Trump and for him to pretend it did is laughable. The DoJ's official opinion and policy since the 70's has been that a president cannot be indicted.

Now why is the president given this deference? Because if he wasn't, every president would be constantly witch hunted, investigated and arrested. Do you not think that would happen? The founders didn't want some guy in Vermont to be able to prosecute a president. No, they wanted Congress to act, which is how it SHOULD be. Only elected officials should be able to prosecute another elected official, especially the president.

I started to type a similar response and I said to myself “Frick it! Either this dude is a seasoned troll or just stupid.”

Maher is right, in a particular sense. I posted many times way back that the Reactionary Right is so pissed that they would elect an 'Adolph Hitler' if He'd promise to get rid of Obama/HRC/Progressive hegemony. Trump is keeping His promises to do so; and that is why we will continue support...especially in regard to the manufactured 'crimes' that the Progs employ.

The rigged Justice to give Hillary a pass and elect Her, and then used the "insurance policy" to take Trump out after She still lost. And yet hypocrites like Maher and people offering critiques like this goober of a Post imagine that Trump SHOULD be abandoned...because He won't take the dive into a Perjury Trap set by a Prog Deep State Operative (Meuller) who is Himself dirty/corrupt to the core (U-1) and trying to coverup REAL crimes.

Prediction. This one will go the way of most before...lasting not much longer than a snoball in hell. This Board is not the place to offer bs; and not because such will be censored...but more so aptly rebutted, condemned, and laughed off the stage.

I watched the video and was less than impressed.

Maher showed at least his bias (if not outright ignorance) in comparing the Bill Clinton subpoena and a possible Trump subpoena. Clinton was subpoenaed as part of an investigation into a crime he was charged with committing prior to becoming President.

Trump has not only not been charged with anything but Mueller's boss Rod Rosenstien has flat-out stated he isn't even under investigation.

The contextual differences between the two are mind-numbingly simple to understand and help create a definitive framework for when a sitting President can and cannot be subpoena'd to testify. Anyone using this as an example of how they believe Trump (or any sitting President) is "above the law" is either purposely lying or doesn't understand the law.

I always said the ADVERTISERS would want our money BACK, they miss our income.

This is the only reason anti-Trump people in the media and Entertainment Industry will change.
