Last night Bill Maher took aim at Donald Trump's enablers.

Courtesy of Raw Story: 

Singling out Vice President Mike Pence, press secretary Sean Spicer, and advisors Kellyanne Conway and Stephen Miller, the Real Time host called them out for going on TV and pretending, “Trump didn’t say what everybody just heard him say.” 

“New rule,” Maher began, “If you get up everyday and try and make Donald Trump’s ludicrous and dangerous pronouncements sound normal and sane, you are an enabler.” 

“Twenty years from now when your kids ask you, over a glass of Soylent Green, ‘What did you do during the Trump years, daddy?’ You don’t want your answer to be, ‘My job was to go on TV and say my job was to go on TV and pretend Trump didn’t say what everybody just heard him say,'” Maher continued. 

“Without these professional liars and deniers, there is no Trump,” Maher added. “It takes a village to help a man-child stay in power. And the excuse, ‘I am just doing my job’ is starting to sound a whole lot like I was just following orders.”

You know just last week I wondered what kind of person can go on TV and defend Donald Trump in the morning and then look at themselves in the mirror at night and not want to hold their head under the bathwater until the bubbles stop.

I still don't know, because I can tell you that if it were MY job to defend Donald Trump you would have found me face down in my tub on day two of my employment.

      My mother who goes to church in Austin didn't see Dakota OR Bristol today. That's because they don't go to church.

      Not being caught dead in a church is actually one thing that I commend the Palins for.

      10:15 WHY?
      They pretend they are Christian so they should walk the walk. They tell us how to act from their pulpits, but tey are fake. Sure, if they were honest and said there is no one religion nor one god, then cool. But they don't.
      That is the definition of hypocrisy.

      Maybe they go to the church of 7 mountains and the texas scientology brainwashing facility. Those folks are limited what they can do. It is part of the mental programming that they bow to.

      They're fueled by hatred and trying to use Gahd as cover. That Kellyanne Conjob has been around spreading Hate for a very long time. Don't be fooled by her ignorance, she's a specialist. She and Bannon are made for each other.

      Unfortunately, most of us are being fueled by hatred and dissatisfaction, by way of all the shit we allow into our lives via faux news, religion, and commercial ads. We welcome crap into our lives and then bitch about our misery. Unfortunately, it's a money maker for all those misery makers. Oh, and God bless America and fuck all the Mitch McConnells.

    Spicer certainly seems very testy. How do you constantly defend the utterances of a delusional pathological liar if you have a conscience?

      Spicer is a mess. Repeats the same lines constantly at the Press thingies! He is always testy and anger is always just below the surface of each press conference.

      He has absolutely ruined his reputation and I'm sure no one will touch him (for employment) after Trump is done!

      Hope Trump is paying him well - IF at all?!

    No shit!! What kind of Adult can be apart of this fraud? Even money would not be worth the guilt and cancer this pos of shit would cause. How could any person look at kids and say this is ok nothing to worry or think about. It still floors me that people will not change the freaken fox no news channel and call them what they are, nasty dirty lying enablers of don john the con artist and fraud. How could any decent human be apart of this outrageous crime against the world. Only evil hateful people could. Hear that granny?

      Loooooong ago were the days of "Religiosity". Maher's still got YOU convinced that he's a progressive.

    Old ugly trump lost another lawsuit yesterday besides the Trump U fraud school 25 million. He also lost his rally lawsuit. Yep trump incited violence by ordering his white supreme hate group to beat up 3 protestors. And now he will pay for this. He is such a loser, when will he get sick of losing? Only 500 more lawsuits to settle and bigly lose. And then we get to the resignation or impeachment hearings at his expense. Its only the beginning of the final end of the trump organization of liars and fraud.

      If he is impeached or he resigns, will we be stuck paying him a pension, and security guards? I think he should be sued to pay back the treasury for those $3 million trips to Florida, plus his "escort/wife's" security, plus the overseas trips his "kids" charged to the taxpayers. Maleria is the most expensive escort in history at this point. Does not look like she is worth it, does she?

      Once determined that he actually did not legally win and it was a fraud and scam he will lose all benefits and be charged the cost of his crime. His crime is different than Nixon. His crime was collusion with the enemy and fraud with intent to harm America and other countries. This is an international crime. He will not receive immunity.

    1. Plus, after Drumpf, they are unemployable. Their careers are ruined. There is no way their current salaries will support them for the rest of their lives. At least Kellyanne has her husband to support her. Sean Spicer is going to have a sad life after Drumpf is over.

      I doubt even the RNC would employ these enablers.
