'An impeachable offense': Bill Maher rips Trump for federal response to coronavirus

HBO comedian Bill Maher said Trump's handling of the coronavirus pandemic amounts to impeachment.

While interviewing Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, the Real Time with Bill Maher host said it was "galling" that the president, in his view, was prioritizing the plights of some states over others during the coronavirus pandemic, calling it impeachable.

"I find one of the most galling parts of this is that the president is favoring certain states over the others. Governors who are nice to him, as he calls it, get a lot of attention and all the equipment they want," Maher began.

"To me, this is even more of an impeachable offense than what he did with Ukraine or Russia. How do you stop a president who is blatantly not the president of every state equally?" Maher asked, claiming that the president has not prioritized states such as California.

Sanders then claimed Trump's response was "literally beyond comprehension," but suggested it could be to bolster his chances in key states during the 2020 election.

I’ll bet he didn’t say that with his red shoes on.

Bill Maher is not a comedian. One must be funny and generate laughter and joy to claim that title. He does neither and is nothing more that self-hating half Jew / half Catholic political hack. F* him and the boat his ancestors used to get into this nation.

The dude is a turd.

Government health agency official: Coronavirus 'isn't something the American public need to worry about'

The government official is Dr. Anthony Fauci and the date was January 26, 2020. So lets cut the crap about the President delaying action. He was taking advice then (and now also) from the good doctor. Enough "blame," if you want to call it that, to go around.

Really sad to see how Democrats/leftists/progressives would politicize a pandemic. Despicable. Retarded. No class at all.

The only things that are going to be impeached from this virus are reusable shopping bags, open borders, and enabling a Commie dictatorship to our own detriment

Not every state got the virus equally.

I am coming to the same conclusions. A civil war is looking to be unavoidable.

Playing politics with a national calamity such is this is grounds for becoming a light post decoration in my book.

It is a bunch of dems who are doing this thing for political gain.

When Trump has said ‘nice’ it means being patriotic and not a sick political opportunist, not stroking his ego. He has enough ego.

There is nothing opportunist about this for Trump politically except for for handling it in the best interest of America.

This has been one hell of a balancing act for President Trump...between avoiding massive death and destroying the economy.

He is taking it in all directions now.

I voted for him and I am going to support his calls.

He’s a damn comedian. Who cares what he thinks. Trump could develop the vaccine himself and, certain people, like this clown, would accuse him of racism for the first person picked to receive it.

Just keep your head down and vote all the vermin out of Washington in November. Give him something else to complain about.

Obviously, I wayyyyyy too much time on my hands.

Some not so “Deep Thoughts” for the times:

1. Half of us are going to come out of this quarantine as amazing cooks. The other half will come out with a drinking problem.

2. I used to spin the toilet paper like I was on Wheel of Fortune. Now I turn it like I’m cracking a safe.

3. I need to practice social distancing from . . . the refrigerator.

4. Still haven’t decided where to go for Easter . . . The Living Room or The Bedroom.

5. PSA: every few days, try your jeans on just to make sure they fit. Pajamas/sweats will have you believing all is well in the kingdom.

6. Homeschooling is going well. 2 students suspended for fighting and 1 teacher fired for drinking on the job!

7. I don’t think anyone expected that when we changed the clocks we’d go from Standard Time to Twilight Zone.

8. This morning I saw a neighbor talking to her cat. It was obvious she thought her cat understood her. I came into the house, told my dog . . . we laughed a lot.

9. So, after this quarantine, will the producers of My 600 Pound life just find me or do I find them?

10. Quarantine Day 5: Went to this restaurant called THE KITCHEN. You have to gather all the ingredients and make your own meal. I have no clue how this place is still in business!

11. My body has absorbed so much soap and disinfectant lately that when I pee it cleans the toilet.

12. Day 5 of Homeschooling: One of these little monsters called in a bomb threat.

13. I’m so excited . . . it’s time to take out the garbage. What to wear, what to wear?

14. I hope the weather is good tomorrow for my trip to Puerto Backyardia. I’m getting tired of Los Livingroomia.
15. Classified Ad: Single man with toilet paper seeks women with hand sanitizer for good clean fun.
16. Day 6 of Homeschooling: My child just said “I hope I don’t have the same teacher next year.” I’m offended.
