Bill Maher blasted the Democratic Party and its younger supporters on Friday’s episode of Real Time, warning that the party risks alienating mainstream voters by embracing radical ideas.
During his “New Rule” monologue, Maher argued that Democrats have shifted from promoting progressive ideals to tolerating what he called extremist rhetoric and a complete embrace of Hamas.
Maher said the Democratic Party’s issues after the 2024 election are that its base of young voters increasingly supports ideologies that are hostile to American values.
“Their young people, their key constituency, not only don’t like their own civilization, they like the wrong one,” Maher said. “They actually think Hamas is a liberation movement.”

He is right. They probably won’t listen to him though.
The inmates are running the asylum. Serves them right.
Maher concluded that young Democrats were “like the girl in White Lotus who was going to live in a Buddhist monastery and then lasted one night.”
He’s not wrong.
Onward!
“Bill Maher Torches Dems for Listening to Young Voters”
Young Voter are ALWAYS followers. Maher is a TOTAL IDIOT if he thinks differently.
If they can just dig a little deeper . . . .
David Hogg was his first guest. Pretty articulate for a 25 year old.
All made possible by years of leftist sophistry from Bill Maher and his ilk.
Apparently he has a great plan to primary some older congressional members to make room for younger fresher ideas.
He’s right but they won’t listen to him the dem party is the pro Hamas party they will never change
A short hop, unsurprisingly.
Ronald Reagan's two terms removed 2 generations of voters from the Democrat farm...with no social media and just 3 news networks.
Good for him.
Don’t you agree with the older Dems being losing their seniority by being challenged and replaced with younger Dems?
DNC’s Hamas wing hardest hit.
I think he definitely realizes it.
Ronald Reagan's two terms removed 2 generations of voters from the Democrat farm...with no social media and just 3 news networks.
The absence of social media and the paucity of news sources actually facilitated Reagan's triumph.

Democrats are now “Those that Have Lost Their Minds.”
Trump used social media to help him win in 2024.
Undoubtedly!
I merely observed that the media landscape of the 1980s made it easier for Reagan to communicate his simple, heart-felt message directly to the American people without the disruptive influence of foreign-based actors and without the deafening chatter of social media.
The younger generation has been so corrupted by their pernicious influence and their thinking so muddled that they have become largely unsusceptible to the elegant prose offered by Reagan.
Regards,
It is conceptually easier to remember, factually, how Reagan succeeded in communicating his message than it is to imagine how much more successful - and Reagan was already fantastically successful! - he might have been had he had recourse to social media.
Trump deftly utilized modern social media, and was thus able to score a few points, in spite of massive opposition. I don't deny that. But it would be preferable, with regards to the modern political landscape in America, if social media had never become prevalent.
