Bill Maher: We Need a Recession to Save Us from Trump
PJ Media ^ | 9 June 2018 | Charlie Martin

Okay, so Donald Trump is a dangerous damnable demon from the deepest depths of dark darkness. So if a few eggs are broken in our jihad, well, that's how you make omelets. We get it.

At least, that seems to be the current message.

Recently, I wrote about the Republican or conservative voices pushing the idea that the right conservative position was to vote for Democrats in the 2018 election to "send a message" to Trump. As you may recall, I said: "the motives are pernicious and the outcome horrendous." But if you thought that was the limit, well, you can depend on the Left to beat it.

To wit:

@BillMaher: “One way you get rid of @realDonaldTrump is a crashing economy, so please bring on the recession. Sorry if that hurts people, but it’s either root for a recession or lose your democracy.” #RealTime #TTT

Quote: "One way you get rid of @realDonaldTrump is a crashing economy, so please bring on the recession. Sorry if that hurts people, but it’s either root for a recession or lose your democracy."

He is, at least, sorry it would hurt lots of people. Oh, probably not anyone he knows, of course: Bill's got a $10 million salary and an estimated net worth of $100 million, so if the economy crashes he's mainly going to be troubled by headlines and tut-tutting among his equally-wealthy friends. So "please bring on the recession." It's just little people in places like Indiana, West Virginia, Michigan, or Wisconsin — who probably voted for Trump anyway, so they deserve it.

Funny! He’s saying the economy has to do what it does under Dems in order for Dems to come back into power - he seems to forget it was all the POS “new norms” that said an eternally stagnant economy was on our plates that helped Trump get elected - and the blasting through the false “caps” set by Obama’s crappy policies is why the economy is getting so dang good now....and Billy thinks he’s one of the smartest men on TV.....

Ann Coulter’s boyfriend is a hateful liberal idiot.

I think Ann left him quite a while ago. She called him a “idiot” in one of her relatively more recent books.
