Bill Maher Takes Another Shot at Taylor Swift While Mocking Trump, GOP Midterms Losses
The comedian issues a new dig about the pop star’s personal life after a similar joke made last week The post Bill Maher Takes Another Shot at Taylor Swift While Mocking Trump, GOP Midterms Losses appeared first on TheWrap .
Bill Maher continued his recent trend of targeting Taylor Swift’s personal life, making a dig at the pop star while satirizing the Republican Party's poor showing in the recent midterm elections. On Friday's episode of "Real Time," Maher commented on the elections, noting that Democrats gained significant ground across various demographic groups.
He pointed out that Hispanics flipped support from Republicans by 29 points, and that factors like fuel prices, grocery inflation, and political persecution contributed to this shift. Maher also noted that Trump's once-strong support among white women had waned. The comedian then made a lighthearted reference to Swift, remarking, "Trump lost the bros.
The Bros, dude. Young white men. Huge swing, like 28 points. Taylor Swift hasn't lost this many white guys." This joke garnered significant laughter and groans from the audience. Maher's remarks on Swift from last week's episode also drew criticism, as he likened his time with Trump to dating Swift – enjoyable at the moment but ultimately harmful.
Swift, who recently married NFL player Travis Kelce, has previously spoken out against criticism of her dating history, defending her right to date "like a normal young woman." In another segment, Maher expressed his astonishment at Trump's reaction to the election results, questioning the former president's mental state and whether he realized the election was not rigged.
