Bill Maher knocks Rep. Jasmine Crockett, questions her status as 'big
leader' in Democratic Party
Fox Nooze:
"Real Time" host Bill Maher took a swipe at Rep. Jasmine Crockett,
D-Tx., widely seen as a rising star in the Democratic Party, for talking
like a "podcaster" instead of a political leader.
Crockett went viral this week for comments she made bashing President
Trump's address to Congress.
"This is not America. This is a terrible nightmare. Somebody slap me and
wake me the f--- up because I'm ready to get on with it," Crockett said.
Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Tx., is widely seen as a rising star in the
Democratic Party.
Those comments didn't sit well with Maher.
"And here's Jasmine Crockett, who is, I thought, a big leader in the
Democratic Party. Her quote is, 'This is a terrible nightmare. Somebody
slapped me and wake me the f--- up because I'm ready to get on with it.'
On with what, would be my first question," Maher reacted.
"And also, this is the way a leader- this is how a podcaster talks or
some s---. ‘F--- it, man.’ Can you imagine, I don't know, Obama saying,
‘Oh, man, dude. This s--- is whack. F--- it. Slap me. I’m f---ing over
it.' C'mon man," he continued.
Maher agreed with the sentiment of Sen. John Fetterman, D-Penn., over
his condemnation of his party during Trump's address, which he called a
"sad cavalcade of self owns and unhinged petulance."
Maher took shots at Rep. Al Green, D-Tx., who he referred to as "the
cane dude," as well as the Democratic lawmakers wearing the "p---y hat
uniform" and holding paddles looking like they were at "an auction."
He later pleaded Democrats to "be a viable alternative" to Trump.
"You can't do anything because you lost the election, you lost all three
branches of government, okay?" Maher said. "The only thing you can do is
be somebody- a party who when the independent voter looks at the scene
says, 'Oh, you know what? I don't like what Trump is doing, but these
people are crazier'."
The liberal comedian went on to blast The New York Times for a report
suggesting Democrats were "divided" between resisting Trump "or"
courting the center of the electorate.
"It's not an ‘or,'" Maher exclaimed. "That is how you stand up to Trump!
You court the center! You go to the place where people are going to vote
for you!"...
