Larry David: My Dinner With Adolf

[appmanga]

15. Maher didn't get played...

...like a lot of other rich people with a platform, he's scared. As they say: "shit got real for him", and like the cowards in the Congress, and in Big Law, and some universities, and some corners of the media, he bent the knee. Maher is the idiot who felt young people shouldn't have been so concerned about COVID, and he's never been as smart of clever as he believes he is.

If he says anything, I'm sure it'll be about Trump not being Hitler, and how it's a hyperbolic disservice to make such a comparison, ignoring that Hitler wasn't even "Hitler", until he was. Maher will set aside Trump's insane pettiness, which caused him to snub Cheryl Hines, presumably because she played David's wife on TV, and Trumps' continuing cruelty toward anyone he can hurt. Maher has always been a smug, self-satisfied, weather vane, but, at one time, he was funny.

Ironically, I used to subscribe to HBO for two shows: "Real Time" and "Curb Your Enthusiasm". I gave up HBO more than five years ago.
