Bill Maher ridiculed both “Dementia Don” and President Joe Biden on Friday, remarking that the 2024 election would be “very good news for people who build ramps on debate stages.”
Reacting on Real Time with Bill Maher to former President Donald Trump’s victory over Nikki Haley in the New Hampshire primary, Maher said, “His whole speech was about how furious he is that Nikki Haley is staying in the race! And I get it, it breaks a life-long precedent where he finishes first and the woman leaves.”
He continued, “It’s sad, the whole thing is over now, there’s not even a race to follow. That was always fun, and Trump is beating Biden, you know, now in the national polls pretty strongly and all my Democratic friends are saying, ‘Relax, it’s a long time before the election.’ Cause yeah, that’s what Biden’s hall card is, time.”
Maher conceded:
We gotta get used to it, this is it, this is the race. Biden and Trump, the race is over. This is bad news for the country, I think. Very good news for people who build ramps on debate stages. Did you know that Bill Clinton, has been out of office for 25 years, is still younger than both of them? I’m not kidding about that. That is a true fact. Their combined age is 158 years
old. The first debate is going to be at the Museum of Natural History.
“I don’t think there’s going to be a debate. I don’t think either one wants it. I don’t want it, you don’t want it, let’s just– because neither one of them is really up to it,” he went on. “You know what’s trending on Twitter? Dementia Don, because Trump was talking about Nancy Pelosi during January 6, but he kept calling her Nikki Haley.”
Maher concluded, “You know what else Dementia Don did this week? This is a direct quote, I don’t know what it means, no one does, he said word for word, ‘We are an institute in powerful death penalty. We will put this on.’ Even Biden was like, ‘What the fuck?'”
