Comedian Bill Maher warned Democrats this week that they have not hit the floor yet with how low the party can sink as it experiences record-low support from the American public.
Maher delivered the remarks on Friday during his HBO show “Real Time” while talking about how people are fleeing Democrat-controlled states for Republican states.
“I just saw this really bad news for Democrats,” Maher said. “2030 reapportionment, there’s a group called the American Redistricting Project, and in five years we will be redistricting.”
“California is projected to lose three seats, New York, two,” he said. “Also gonna lose a seat, Minnesota, Oregon, Rhode Island, Illinois. All blue states.”
“Who’s getting these?” he continued. “Texas, Florida, Idaho, and Utah. I mean, this looks like game over.”
He said that people are “voting with their feet” because of deeply unpopular views that Democrats have on key issues, including believing in high taxes and lots of government regulation.
“I’ve certainly been screaming about it forever,” he said. “I did three years with a sign here that said, ‘How long is it gonna take me to get my solar hooked up?’ Three years. Talking about it on television in this state, you couldn’t do it!”
He said that California alone has more than 400,000 regulations and that he experienced significant difficulty getting his roof replaced recently following the fires that ravaged the state earlier this year, saying that the state made him undergo multiple inspections.
“It’s my f***ing roof!” he exclaimed. “If it falls on me, that’s my problem. And we’re taxed more than any other state.”
“People are leaving these kinds of states for places where they don’t feel the heavy breadth of government on them,” he said. “It’s not that hard for Democrats to understand this, but they don’t, they seem to be incapable of doing anything about it.”
