"What Were You Like At 17?": Maher Defends Kavanaugh In Fiery Exchange
With Liberal Guests
Sat, 09/21/2019 - 18:45
On his show Friday night, Bill Maher and his panel got into a heated
debate over the "new" allegations about Brett Kavanaugh - yes, the ones
even his accuser can't remember. Maher even turned on his liberal
comrades, adopting the position that rehashing events from when
Kavanaugh was 17 years old hurt the Democrats in 2018... and could hurt
them again.
Citing polling from 2018, Maher said that Democrats could have done
better in the midterm elections had it not been for the Kavanaugh
hearings: "People did not like going after a guy for what he did in high
school. It looked bad and now Democrats are talking about impeaching him
again?" Maher said.
Guest Andrew Sullivan seemed to agree. "He probably did some ****ty
things in high school drunk," he said.
And when liberal guest Heather McGhee tried to jump in, asking "May the
woman please speak about what this felt like?", Sullivan shot her down
immediately: "Please don't play that card. You're making my point."
When Kavanaugh's temperament was brought up, Sullivan responded: "You
try maintaining a good temperament when you're being accused of
something, you had no idea it was coming at you, came at the last
minute, and that happened years and years and years ago."
As McGhee tried to make the point that being a Supreme Court justice
isn't just a "normal job", Maher immediately fired back: "So you're
saying at 17 you have to have your fully formed character?"
He continued: "Live in reality, man! That's who they put up. We don't
have the votes, and now we lost seats! Are we gonna do it again? Ruth
Bader Ginsburg said glowing things about him What were you like at 17?"
