Surprise: Bill Maher Mocks Mueller's Press Conference

On Friday’s edition of Real Time, host Bill Maher took shots at Special Counsel Robert Mueller, who gave a press conference earlier in the week declaring that “If we had confidence that the President clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said that.” While many in the media have taken that statement as an invitation for Congress to impeach President Trump, Maher took a page out of Trevor Noah’s playbook and made light of Mueller’s remarks.

Maher began his opening monologue by announcing that “Mueller finally came down from his cloud and spoketh. You know, everybody’s been waiting for him to speak and to testify, and he finally spoke, and what he said was, word for word, ‘The report is my testimony. I shall not want.’” Maher added that what Mueller basically said was “So get off my lawn and stop asking me to testify and do anything. Make do with my cryptic pronouncements.”

Maher then proceeded to address Mueller’s controversial statement that effectively turns the sacrosanct concept of innocent until proven guilty on its head. Maher sarcastically asked, “What was his wedding like? ‘Do you, Robert, take this woman?’” Maher argued that based on his press conference, Mueller might have answered “I don’t not take her.”

Maher’s opening monologue contained a few more statements aimed at liberals. When he brought up pro-impeachment Republican Congressman Justin Amash, he admitted that “liberals love any Republican who comes out against Trump. We’re like...a gay guy on Grindr who only gets excited by straight guys.”

Maher also admitted that the only reason liberals are upset about President Trump’s proposed tariffs with Mexico is because they’re worried they might “f*** with the price of avocado toast.” Just weeks earlier, MSNBC had gone up in arms at the prospect of an avocado shortage if President Trump went ahead with his threat to close border.

Yeah.

The only thing I liked about Jon Stewart is that he occasionally called the dems on their crap... and in a hilarious way.

Jim Clyburn was a fool then, and he’s a fool now.

That analogy is somewhat difficult, at least for me.

I hate avocados. Go ahead and tariff the crap out of Mexico unless and until they start cooperating on stopping the flood of illegals.

Lefties just have their knickers in a twist over the fact that Mueller did not declare Trump guilty.

I agree. I think many times scare tactics are the only way they know how to get their way.

No surprise here. Bill Maher may be a rabid lefty, but he’ll call his side out when well deserved.
