Bil Maher doubts Biden’s candidacy
In a recent episode of ‘The Rubin Report’ released on Tuesday, Maher expressed his doubts about Biden’s candidacy.
“It does not have to be a disaster. There is still time,” Maher stated. “It almost doesn’t matter who it is. Just someone new. The less we know about them the better.”
Maher believes that the Democrats should consider a new candidate who fits a specific profile.
“Just get everybody who is not 100 years old, got a ‘D’ by their name, and is sort of a centrist and you can win this election. Just give us that choice,” he urged Democrats.
Despite Biden’s firm stance on continuing his campaign, Maher is convinced that there is “no chance” the current president will be the Democratic nominee.
“Pressure will keep building,” Maher predicted. “I would put money on it that he’s just not going to be the candidate.”
Biden stands firm in his campaign
In response to questions about his campaign, President Joe Biden reaffirmed his determination to stay in the race during an interview with NBC’s Lester Holt on Monday.
“14 million people voted for me to be the nominee of the Democratic Party, okay?” Biden said. “I listen to them.”
On Rubin’s podcast, Maher also addressed the issue of Biden’s age, clarifying that while he believes Biden is too old for the presidency, he does not think Biden is senile.
“He’s terrible in public. He’s terrible when you put him under pressure with his stuttering and his age, yes,” Maher admitted, but he emphasized that Biden has “not lost his marbles.”
Maher argued that while the 81-year-old president might not be fit for the daily demands of the presidency, he is still mentally competent. “To think not is to just, again, be pointlessly, purposefully, stupidly extreme about it,” he told Rubin. “You just hate that side so you can’t come to the actual true place where this is.”
Maher also reassured that under Biden’s leadership, America would be stable in a crisis.
“Yes, trust me, he has his marbles, he could make the right decision. He’s not crazy, he just shouldn’t be president. It’s a day-to-day job,” Maher said. “But do I fear that in a crisis, crazy, out-of-his-mind is there? No,” he added in reference to Trump.
It’s worth noting that this podcast episode was recorded before the recent shooting at a Trump campaign rally on Saturday. The tragic event resulted in the death of rallygoer Corey Comperatore, critical injuries to David Dutch and James Copenhaver, and a minor injury to former President Trump himself. Shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks was shot dead by Secret Service snipers.
