New York Post ^ | 1/25 | Joseph A. Wulfsohn

“Real Time” host Bill Maher appeared to be stunned by his admission that President Donald Trump is now considered “cool.”

“Here’s how bad the Democrats f—ed up: Trump is cool now,” Maher said during a panel discussion Friday night.“He’s not just the most powerful guy in the world and just made himself like the richest, he’s actually kind of [cool] at 78!”

“I mean, rappers like him, the athletes are doing-” Maher continued while gesturing Trump’s iconic rally dance.

Trump was cool with rappers before he ran for President. It was only when the media establishment went after him, when he declared for President as a Republican, that he became uncool for a while with some.

What’s the joke? Something like he’s rich, he’s got 41 felonies, and 3 baby-mommas, he’s an honorary bada** black dude!

You left out the newest and biggest street cred.

He’s been shot and got up like a Man and basically said “#### it. I’m good!”

3 baby mommas, 41 felonies, been shot...he’s more gangsta than most rappers :)

We know the felonies are garbage. the crime was charging him.

But whatever made more people turn out to the polls for him...I’ll take it.

30 percent of black men under 30 voted for him. That’s astounding. 55 percent of Hispanic men. Incredible.

trump!!

president Trump is such a unique and incredible individual he has endured and triumphed over his enemies and because the the intense media spot light on him and twitter/X the world has been witness to it in real time.

At certain point it just becomes obvious to most normal people - damn that is one tough dude yeah maybe he is a super genius. Maybe I should start listening to him.

There has never been a president similar to Donald Trump we are incredibly lucky

FTA: Because something that pertains when you talk about the transgender community, for example, you talk about the issues that pertain to less than 1% of the population, the Democratic Party came across as if that was a priority more so than the other issues.

It is not just that they are focused only on the "rights" of trannies, it is that they are elevating the "rights" of less than 1% of the population that are trannies over the actual rights of 50% of the populations that are women and girls.

Most people gravitate to strength. Some recoil from the strong.

When people are like, "How did Trump make it cool to be a Republican?" ponder that this is the current male energy of today's Democratic Party:

gotta love a Man that doesn’t engage in politispeak OR “newspeak” like our betters on the left do. we don’t need sugar mixed with poisonous rhetoric when our leaders can just SAY WHAT THEY MEAN and mean what they say. it WILL take some getting used to.

Trump gave Mike Tyson some respect.

There are church ladies on this forum who would probably take issue with that.

Tyson did the crime and he did the time.

He knew what he did was wrong.

He has always admitted to being a street thug and mugger and that was wrong.

Not saying Tyson is going to ever find Eternal favor with Our Creator.

But forgiveness is a Christian act.

But beyond that giving second chances is very much American.

Lot of black folk deservedly face incarceration.

And a few come out and are able to turn their life around.

Trump is an American who believes in second chances.

Black folk sense that.

That in part contributes to his growing popularity among blacks.

Bill Maher was smart enough to figure out WOKE/CancelCulture was being used as a totalitarian horse to ride. Then Maher decided to risk it all for basically ‘nothing’ - ‘nothing’ being ‘the deplorables’. And ‘all’ being his career, friends and reputation if it didn’t work. Unless Historians are smarter than I think, his risk and sacrifices will not be understood or appreciated.

The don’t give a flip about trannies. What they do care about is using trannies to finish what’s left of a traditional family.

It took Bill Maher 8 years to catch on that Trump is Cool duh.

Maher is just another one that swings with the trend aka a follower he earned his Sap badge.
