Bill Maher: ‘Democrats Suck,’ ‘They’re Horrible’

Bill Maher broke down this week’s midterm elections by venting some of his frustrations with the Democratic Party, saying rather bluntly that “Democrats suck” and “they’re horrible” if they can’t even beat the current crop of Republicans. That being said, he still had some issues with Republicans, like how, Maher claimed, the entire GOP victory was all about a continuing resentment of the “first black president.”

Maher said their entire strategy was “screw Obama, we hate Obama,” and was amazed that it actually worked. Senator Bernie Sanders said it’s very easy to beat up on Obama instead of talking about big issues that affect the country. Maher pointed out how few Democratic candidates said anything positive about Obama and said they just suck.

He argued they didn’t have that hard of a record to run on, and when actual Democratic policies were on the ballot, voters approved them. Maher said the Democrats were just horrible and “treated Obama like a teenager treats his mother.”
