Bill Maher Jokes About Hinckley Assassinating Trump Since Polls Are Tight

2016-09-13

[NEWSBUSTERS.ORG] Politico touted as "HOT AUDIO" HBO star Bill Maher making jokes about Donald Trump being assassinated. Well, it was sort of a joke. It had that Maher edge ‐ as in, "seriously, shouldn’t we shoot Trump before he gets elected?" Judging from the giddy reaction from Maher-loving liberals, could we call it "bloodlust"?

Maher was doing a standup comedy set at DAR Constitution Hall in Washington, DC, and he admitted, "I’m nervous. And I saw the headline today -- "Race tightening. Trump ahead in Ohio and Florida." If this race is even the week before the election, somebody is going to have to go out there..."

He paused for effect, then said in a low, growly voice: "Why do you think they let Hinckley out?"

#10 I have seen his stand up routine. He is awful. He is a very small man with very large hair, poor delivery, and bathroom stall cleverness.

#7 When you're the ones without the 300 million (+) guns, you might not want to joke about something along the lines of the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand. That didn't turn out so well for most of the 20th Century for the inhabitants of Europe.

#6 This isn't a joke. It is a trial balloon.

#5 Mentioning Maher and comedy in the same sentence, much less the same paragraph, seems to be a bit strained. As in not friggin' likely, just saying.

#4 Anyone who runs against a Clinton is in danger for his or her life. Just ask the 53. Or is it 54?

#2 Assassination ? Where does it stop? Once it begins then its a game anyone and everybody can play.

Everybody has a List. And there are professionals available.
