Bill Maher rails against 'toxic' Democrats: 'You've become the party of no common sense'
Fox News
"Real Time" host Bill Maher appeared on "Cuomo Prime Time" and offered CNN viewers something they rarely see on the network: criticism of Democrats.
"Woke- I don't remember the day the term was born, although I hear AOC says ‘Only old people use it now.’ Well, you gave it to us. Like five years ago. So sorry we didn't get the memo," Maher told CNN anchor Chris Cuomo on Wednesday. "In its best sense, if we're talking about being aware of things we should have always been aware of more, reckonings that we've had… but there's a reason why the term ‘woke’ has come to signify going too far. And doing things that don't make sense."
"I keep saying this to the Democratic Party. The reason why you're so toxic is because you've become the party of no common sense. And people see this on their newsfeeds," Maher said. "They see things on their phone or on their Facebook page, people pass things around and it's a constant drip, drip, drip of ‘Oh, these people are nuts' in a way- they're not oblivious to the fact that Trump is nuts. When he ran, one of his big selling points was ‘You’ve got no choice.' He was saying, ‘Yes, I know I’m nuts. You know I'm nuts. But they're nuts in a very different way that's closer to home to you.'"
