‘All The Brothers Found Him To Be Cool’: Bill Maher, Stephen A. Smith Dump Cold Water On Trump Being ‘Terrible Racist’
'he bucked the establishment, which we love'
On a recent episode of the “Club Random with Bill Maher” podcast, guest Larry Wilmore highlighted his own hypocrisy.
“I have a healthy outlook on this,” Wilmore told Maher. “I just view all white people as problematic. So, it doesn’t matter what party you’re in,” he laughed.
Maher then did what he does best and pointed out Wilmore's hypocrisy.
“I know that’s a joke, and you can make every joke in the world on it. I just want to point out that we do live in an era now where lots of stuff can’t happen in reverse. Like, I can’t make that joke about you,” Maher said.
“You could, you just can’t say it in public,” Wilmore responded.
“I believe everything is in public now, what in the f***ing world is not in public,” Maher said, laughing. “I mean, you can find a lot of TikToks of young black women, usually women, saying ‘I just can’t deal with white people today,’” Maher shot back.
“Can you imagine if a white person said that in reverse though?” he then asked.
Wilmore then continued to claim that white people just don’t put it online.
“But the fact that you make a TikTok out of it says a lot,” Maher continued, to which Wilmore agreed that black people have “cultural permission” to poke fun of white people.
“It’s so interesting, because Wilmore when he says that ‘I just view all white people as problematic’ and then he laughed,” Dave Rubin comments. “You, Larry Wilmore, I think you’re a TV star, you’re probably worth millions of dollars. There you are hanging out with elite Hollywood celebrities.”
“We’re allowed to make fun of you. I’m not making fun of you because you’re black, I’m making fun of you because your ideas are thin and stupid and you don’t get a force field because of the color of your skin,” he adds.

You never know what’s going to come out of the mouth of anti-woke liberal Bill Maher. Sometimes he speaks with wisdom, sometimes with stupidity. Some of his comments during his recent interview with GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy unfortunately fell into the latter category.
“That you are a person of color is an advantage,” Maher says. “I think it is the right moment, [and] I think it’s happening in the right party.”
“In the past, in the recent past, including sometimes the present, they are racist,” Maher says of members of the Republican Party.
“I think they’re better than they used to be, but there’s still a lot of racism in that party.”
Vivek’s response deserves a round of applause.
“I’ll give you a quote,” he begins. “The remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination. The remedy to present discrimination is future discrimination.”
“That’s racism too,” he tells Maher.
“I’ll use an analogy,” Vivek continues. “Based on you lighting that [cigar] and watching [it] taper out, ... it's like the last burning embers of racism. That's where we are, actually. ... What I don’t want to do is, right as that’s burning out, I don’t want to come in and throw kerosene on it by saying, ‘Don’t be racist.”’
“All right, I'll vote for you. You got me with that one,” says Maher.

Riley Gaines is known as something of a heroine, at least from the perspective of conservatives, for her courageous fight against male participation in female sports.
Gaines has been at war against trans swimmer Lia Thomas since 2022, when Thomas tied Gaines for fifth place in the women's 200-meter freestyle final at the NCAA championships and was given a trophy while Gaines went home empty-handed.
Gaines recently met with Bill Maher to discuss the situation, but let’s just say their conversation took an odd and rather uncomfortable turn.
“How big is her cock? You’ve seen her cock, right?” Bill asks.
Although Gaines attempts to make light of conversation by saying, “We all did,” Bill won’t let the subject go.
“What kind of a cock is it? Describe her cock,” Bill presses.
“First of all, this is a 6'4 man, right?” says Gaines, trying to keep the conversation respectful.
“Well, a trans woman,” interjects Bill, adding, “She does go through life as a woman, correct?”
“I'll be frank here — I don't use she/her pronouns when referring to Thomas, and I call it a male,” Gaines boldly states.
“I think even using the term 'trans woman' is giving Thomas some of our language as women, and ... I do not believe trans women are women,” she continues.
*Insert applause*
Our hat is off to Riley Gaines, who not only dodged an incredibly uncomfortable question but also simultaneously stood her ground.
Well played.

In a day of political tribalism, Bill Maher is a bit of a rarity. He claims he’s an anti-woke liberal, which is probably why Dave Rubin says he “kind of [makes] sense but also [doesn’t] make sense.”
“How liberals can be on the wrong side of this issue is the biggest mind boggler for me,” he told Sharon Osbourne on an episode of “Club Random with Bill Maher.”
What is this mind-boggling issue Maher speaks of?
It actually dates all the way back to September 11, 2001, when the United States suffered the worst terrorist attack in the country’s history.
Maher apparently criticized the part of traditional Muslim culture that discourages education for women and demands they cover every part of their bodies, including their faces.
“Somehow when I criticize traditional Muslim societies for the way they engage in what you have to call gender apartheid – putting f****** bags over women's heads … I'm the bad guy,” he says.
The early wokeists apparently called him “Islamophobic” – or “whatever bullsh** word you wanna call it,” he adds.
“That’s when I knew they had lost their way,” he admits.
