Maher is 'hoping for' economic collapse so he can 'get rid of Trump': 'Sorry if that hurts people'
The Washington Examiner ^ | June 8, 2018 | Christian Datoc

HBO host Bill Maher said Friday that he is "hoping for" an economic collapse because that is the only way the president's opponents can "get rid of Trump."

Maher first asked guest Shermichael Singleton to asses the current economy under President Trump.

"It is going well," Singleton answered. "For now."

"Thank you, that’s my question,” Maher added. “I feel like the bottom has to fall out at some point, and by the way, I’m hoping for it."

"I think one way you get rid of Trump is a crashing economy. So please, bring on the recession. Sorry if that hurts people, but it’s either root for a recession or you lose your democracy.”

The economy appears to be improving under President Trump despite his ongoing trade war with both China and U.S. allies.

Earler in June, the unemployment rate fell to 3.8 percent, a 50-year low.

We have been losing our democracy AND our economy under Democrats for years. I am flabbergasted at his remark and the underlying falsehood of same.

Did Maher miss the memo that if there IS an economic collapse, the civil war that follows will concentrate on exterminating ALL the Left, down to the least aunt, uncle and cousin, pet, house and apartment, and any paper that might record their names, of the ultimate communist evil?

You have no idea to what degree I agree with that statement.

FFS, I can’t WAIT to lose our ‘democracy’

THEN, maybe, we can finally return to our Constitutional Republic.

I was always hoping for the economy to crater before the elections under Obama but would never say it publicly. Lol.

BM has an estimated net worth of $100 million, so he’ll be okay. I didn’t realize that being a professional worthless scumbag paid so well.

You’re such a noble, compassionate guy, Bill.
Is there any other way the people of the world can suffer to increase your personal satisfaction?

We are not a democracy, not supposed to be.

He needs a helping of his own personal financial crisis. He needs to be unemployed, wondering where his next meal might come from.
