Maher is 'hoping for' economic collapse so he can 'get rid of Trump': 'Sorry if that hurts people'
The Washington Examiner ^ | June 8, 2018 | Christian Datoc

HBO host Bill Maher said Friday that he is "hoping for" an economic collapse because that is the only way the president's opponents can "get rid of Trump."

Maher first asked guest Shermichael Singleton to asses the current economy under President Trump.

"It is going well," Singleton answered. "For now."

"Thank you, that’s my question,” Maher added. “I feel like the bottom has to fall out at some point, and by the way, I’m hoping for it."

"I think one way you get rid of Trump is a crashing economy. So please, bring on the recession. Sorry if that hurts people, but it’s either root for a recession or you lose your democracy.”

The economy appears to be improving under President Trump despite his ongoing trade war with both China and U.S. allies.

Earler in June, the unemployment rate fell to 3.8 percent, a 50-year low.

Bill Maher doesn’t care if the American people are hurt - so long as corrupt ‘elites’ keep their power. That’s his ONLY concern...

Is this the 21st century version of ‘making the trains run on time’?

To paraphrase Milton, they would rather reign in H-ll than serve in Heaven. The problem with this is that we all have to live there.

Hitchens had a borrowed Christian ethic. That’s why he occasionally had valid points and principles.

One of the key atheist reasons against God is the injustice found in the world. However, “injustice” as a word only makes sense when there is justice—laws of right and wrong—which requires a law-giver.

Injustice observed too, is this side of God’s final judgement. And the world isn’t over yet!
