Bill Maher announced quite the take during his show “Real Time with Bill Maher” on HBO, addressing Democrats that their plan-b is not a viable option.
Maher referenced Joe Biden’s age as the commander and chief turns 80 this coming week and if he were to, unfortunately, pass away while in office.
“I’ll give you another reason why, a good reason why, Biden shouldn’t run: the Kamala problem,” Maher declared. “Now, I like Kamala Harris, but for whatever reason, it just didn’t work out, okay? I think she would make a great president of the University of Santa Barbara here in California.”
“But if Joe doesn’t run, then we don’t have to worry about her running, because it’s hard to get rid of your running mate that you ran with last time.” Maher said. “But if you don’t run, then that kind of goes out with you.”
While the discussion among the panel continued, Maher added, “Let me put it another way. Couldn’t Biden wind up doing a kind of Ruth Bader Ginsburg thing where he stays on a little too long and takes down the whole thing with him?”
“That’s what I worry about,” he continued.
Representative Ro Khanna (D-CA) was a guest and claimed that the President was in “good health,” which forced Bill to respond, “Oh come on. He keeps saying his son was killed in Iraq and he wasn’t.”

TRANSCRIPT:
ROBERTA COSTA, REPORTER: I sat down with her ahead of the election and she said this whole election is going to be about democracy and abortion rights. And people looked at those comments and said, ‘what she talking about it?’ She called it.
BILL MAHER: Lots of people said that.
COSTA: A lot of people said the economy was going to be everything.
MAHER: Well, yes. Like I said, people thought differently when they got in the booth. Okay. So great, but okay. Let me, let me put it another way. Couldn’t Biden wind up doing a kind of Ruth Bader Ginsburg thing where he stays on a little too long and takes down the whole thing with him. That’s what I worry about.
REPRESENTATIVE RO KAHNNA (D-CA): He’s in good health.
MAHER: He’s in good health now.
KHANNA: And he’s, you know, he’s someone. Let me, let me say this, people say he’s –
MAHER: He’s a little befuddled sometimes.
KHANNA: No!
MAHER: Oh come on. He keeps saying his son was killed in Iraq and he wasn’t.
