âReal Time with Bill Maherâ host Bill Maher is speaking with former counselor to the president Kellyanne ConwayaboutPresident Donald Trump and his legacy.
She was asked by Maher during Friday nightâs show, âHow do you look back, four years later, anything go wrong?â
Conway responded, âA lot went right, and he will be remembered for that.â
However, she also said that last weekâs riot at the U.S. Capitol was âvulgarâ and added, âThereâs no place for violence and vandalism, and I wish the president had spoken with the people earlier to get them the hell out of there.â
Conway said during the show, âThe real disappointment for people like me is that the last two months werenât spent mostly talking about the accomplishments.â The former counselor to the president acknowledged Joe Bidenâs win in the election in early December.
Maher also mentioned during the interview that Trump has hurled insults at him, including calling him âa dummy, dopeyâ and âdumb as a rock.â
Maher also joked during his monologue, â like the vaccine, you need two doses, and still no guarantees.â
He was referring to the House of Representatives impeaching Trump this week â which is the first time in U.S. history a president has been impeached twice.
Additionally, Maher said during Fridayâs show that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) is âplaying everyone like a fiddle.â
McConnell said he has not made a decision on if he will vote to convict Trump. This came after Axios reported there is a âbetter than 50-50 chanceâ McConnell would vote to convict Trump.
The New York Times also reported the senator âhas told associates that he believes President Trump committed impeachable offenses and that he is pleased that Democrats are moving to impeach him, believing that it will make it easier to purge him from the party.â
Maher continued, âHeâs rope-a-doping you. He does this with the media all the time. ⌠He leaked it out that he might do this. Heâs never going to do it. Heâs not going to vote to impeach Donald Trump.â
The late-night show host also predicted Trump âis going to run again. Heâs not going away. And heâs a brand now. I see these other politicians who talk like him now. ⌠Itâs a brand! We let the alien on the spaceship and it had eggs! It had eggs and theyâre breeding!â
