They don’t disagree, bill has a facade to uphold. He is far more right leaning because hes old and not with the times anymore. American politics looked respectful before trump because trump isn’t a politician he’s plant used to divide America to slow them down. Americans especially in the Midwest and lower southern areas are apart of the lowest IQ demographic in the modern world and also the poorest in history since the early 20th century and they’re voting for a corrupt millionaire who had his supporters start an insurrection. Most Americans who voted for trump don’t know what that word means that’s why he’s in charge again

If you’re mentioning perceived biases against Ben, I appreciate that you’re approaching this topic with an open mind. However, there’s an essential point to understand-this is who Ben genuinely is. He hasn’t altered his views or personality to fit the expectations of this show or its audience. The notable change, then, is not in him but in the fact that you have stepped outside of your own familiar perspectives to engage with his. It’s worth noting that this process of stepping beyond one's bubble is important on both sides of the political spectrum. I don't mean to imply that this is unique to one group, but it does seem that this type of openness is encouraged more frequently within conservative circles. The challenge and value of reaching across these divides cannot be overstated, especially as we all strive to understand others without sacrificing our own beliefs.

The part around the 25-28 minute mark just convinces me even more that proper homeschooling is THE way to go. I was lucky enough to be homeschooled by parents who socialized us well, so I’m not “weird”, and I can’t BELIEVE the kinds of stories I hear out of public school that are talked about as just NORMAL. Physical abuse, bullying so awful and so constant that a child would be under _that much stress_ and trauma every single day all the time… I can’t imagine it. It’s not natural! If you have any capacity at ALL to homeschool your kids, _why wouldn’t you??_ Especially if you want them to be smart and talented and interested in vocational activities, because then you _know for a fact_ they will be treated worse and have worse trauma, by the unsocialized, abused, low-IQ, angry bully kids. I mean, wtf is the public school system?? Why do most people just accept that their kid will probably be physically abused, not get a thorough education, be fed toxic synthetic “food”, and come away with memories like _these??_ Of being unsafe, abused, invisible, rejected?? I mean my goodness, even if it’s hard for you and takes away from what YOU would rather be doing, why _wouldn’t_ you save your child from that kind of childhood??

Kids get drunk on the weekend with friends but it rarely turns into drinking each morning and through out the day. With weed, it’s the opposite.

I like Bill and agree with him on a lot of broad things. He’s an atheist and old school libertarian similar to myself. But honestly, Bill my guy you need to see a doctor about your terminal stage 5 Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Gosh this Man Maher & the rants about Trumps and the same rhetoric he parrots. Just grow up. I was anti trump too however in his last year saw beyond and now thinks he is the option not that no good chameleon kamla. And I am an ethnic woman too. Just get over yourself bill. Enough you are exhausting. Can’t listen last past 13:49 . Hopefully someday he’ll learn to be a host and let his guest speak .

I’m with you. I’ve watched Bill for decades but the TDS makes him look stupid. He still falls for the CNN propaganda. I’m an Asian American female educated at NYU and UVM and I just voted for Trump. I hated Bill’s condescending reference to the Trump voters without college degrees. Also embarrassing I used to watch CNN and had voted for Gore Kerry and Obama in the past.

I think it's a question of perspective. Bill probably thinks of himself as being wealthy, and he is. But there are things he can't have because they're beyond him. He doesn't see what it's like to be a multi-billionaire.

These same people say Trump said he would dissolve the constitution. Then you read the quote because it was a post on truth. It says if America allows election interference, it is akin to canceling the constitution. So he never even out of context said he would cancel it, so instead of taking it out of context, they just completely changed his words. Even when Cenk was pushed on it, he said, "So what if he didn't say it? He said all of these other things." 😂 he is using it again.😂😂

Exactly. Bill doesn't understand many things about Trump, so he certainly wouldn't understand his motives for running for president.

It is funny that Bill says people fed up with wokeness talk about people moving to FL, Nashville, and Austin. Austin!?! I live near Austin, Austin is as obnoxiously woke (and crime laden) as LA or CA in general. Bill, have you spent more than a day in Austin? If people come to TX to get away from wokeness, they go anywhere BUT Austin.
