Bill Maher Slams Jussie Smollett As A Gift To Fox News (And A Lousy Actor)
Deadline ^ | Greg Evans

“Fox News will dine out on this,” Maher said during the panel discussion on tonight’s Real Time with Bill Maher. Earlier in the show, during the opening monologue, Maher said, “Of course Fox News loves this story because it proves their stupid theory that racism is a hoax.”

Smollett, Maher said, “wanted to be a victim without going through all the steps…”

But Real Time guest Donna Brazile wasn’t having it. The former Chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee and co-author of For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Politics had a more straightforward theory about Smollett’s alleged false police report.

“He wanted a raise, he wanted a raise, he wanted a raise,” a furious Brazile said. “No one wants to be a victim of hate crimes, no one wants to be victim of being attacked and brutalized because you’re gay or black or Jewish. That’s bullsh*t. He wanted a pay raise and he wanted to bring attention to himself. I’m angry with him. I’m upset with him. He owes not only the city of Chicago an apology, but there are real, live victims out there today, and I refuse to shut up because he played a terrible game, and it’s painful.”

Not to be outdone, Maher got the final word on Smollett: “I saw Jussie’s interview with Robin Roberts,” the host said, “and he’s not a good actor.”

Very fake news.

Juicy Fruit is a bigot and hardcore Trump hater.
Juicy was motivated by politically hurting Trump and smearing ALL Trump supporters.

So, what DID 0bama mean when 0bama blurted out “I mean, I do think at a certain point you’ve made enough money. “

that’s exactly what i thought too ... i thought: “he’s acting”, and if you can TELL that he’s acting, then he’s a bad actor ...
