We need to ask what the average age was at that Third Way retreat. They are living in the past and must have been drinking during our last convention. The younger Dems got it together there, and it sure as hell did not look like any corporation was running that show.

Go no further than Bill Maher for a Democrat that is too smart and rich to know better. He was invited to have dinner with Trump, and he is going!

Trump is a psychopath. Maher has tangled with him before---he won in court. Now he's back for more because he wants to what? Understand something about the right? There is nothing to understand when it comes to crazy. The only thing to understand about psychos is to STAY AWAY FROM THEM.

This cult of Trump has lost it's mind and lost it's way. They F'd Around and they are Finding Out. Democrats still have a moral compass.

In the meantime, just look at the people holding the signs. We are not finished with the work we started in the 60's. That included arguing with the "old guard" THEN. Thom and Bernie know; they were there.

Each one teach one, people.

Ah Bill Maher, a mixed bag, personal friends with Kid Rock, calls him by his name Bob, has him stay over at his house, Liked RFK Jrs, because he is opposed to masking and COVID, whine about cancel culture when it affected him, but doesn't care about book banning and right wing cancel culture, because it doesn't affect him (said so on TV)

He is anti Trump but not wholly anti Trumpism, as he posits himself a libertarian of sorts.

The one bone he gnaws at is transwomen, almost every show he has a comment or rant against trans, could it be because his girl friend, Ann Coulter, has an Adams apple.

If one of his guests wants Bill on his side during the show, all he or she has to do is say something about men in womens sports or bathrooms or mention the word trans.

Although he did rake Trump over the coals on his comment about transgender mice, when they were transgenic.

And I admit that his New Rules segment is worth watching.

The reason that Maher is so anti masking, and anti medical science, is because COVID cost him money, no live audiences because of masking, thus no laughter, and that cost him the precious attention his pathetic poorly formed narcissistic personality (and pocketbook) needs.

He shares a lot of Trump, both are narcissist that need attention and affirmation, and get easily wounded by rejection.

Good take on Maher. I used to like him, I wonder these days what in the hell happened to him.

Nothing happened to him, he is just a self centered narcissist, only COVID and some social changes brought out who he is. As Maya D'Angelou said, when a person shows you who they are, believe them.
