Bill Maher Unloads on Trump: ‘Frankenstein Monster’ Created by Tea Party

Bill Maher got out two weeks worth of barbs directed at Donald Trump tonight, calling him “the Frankenstein monster that was created with the tea party” who isn’t going away any time soon.

Kristen Soltis Anderson and Mary Katherine Ham doubted Trump has any staying power within the GOP, but Maher argued he actually might, because of how strongly he appeals to the angry GOP base.

“He never apologizes,” Maher said, “he’s never wrong, no matter what crazy thing he says. He’s the white Kanye.”

Maher called Trump the “id” of the GOP. Michael Eric Dyson said adding the letters “-iot” after it would be a more accurate descriptor.
