When you lose Leftist Bill Maher on so many issues, you know the time for your insanity is coming to an end.
Bill Maher recently expressed strong criticism of President Joe Biden’s latest immigration policy on his show, “Real Time.” Maher’s critique focused on Biden’s executive action, which limits the number of migrants who can claim asylum at the border to 2,500 per day, describing it as a strategic blunder that could impact Biden’s reelection chances.
NEW: Bill Maher shreds President Biden’s border policy and blasts Democrats for having ‘no balls’ to confront the border crisis.
I haven’t heard Maher say one thing he likes about Biden yet he will vote for him anyway.

Maher argued, “If Biden loses this election, it’s going to be because of two things: He’s old… and immigration.” He was emphatic about the political mishandling of the situation, stating, “I don’t think they could have handled it worse.”
The policy has faced opposition from both sides of the aisle. Notable Democratic representatives, including Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Pramila Jayapal, have voiced their dissatisfaction, labeling the order a betrayal of American ideals and criticizing its lack of provisions for migrants to obtain documented status. Maher highlighted that Biden is employing the same authority used by former President Donald Trump, which courts had previously challenged.
"I would vote for his (Joe Biden) head in a jar of blue liquid over Donald Trump. He's (Joe Biden) gonna fucking lose."

During the discussion, Maher elaborated on the specifics of the order: “He’s finally, after saying he couldn’t do anything, he’s gonna issue an executive order…which says we will put a cap of 2,500 asylum seekers coming in. If it passes 2,500, the border automatically closes.”
Maher used a metaphor comparing the situation to a nightclub managed by a fire marshal to illustrate the abruptness and rigidity of the cap. He also brought up a striking statistic, claiming that more than nine million migrants have entered the U.S. since Biden took office, comparing that number to the population of Nicaragua to underscore the scale of immigration under Biden’s administration. This number is actually closer to 15 million as President Trump has said. Democrats in the meantime still, even just a week ago, continue claim that there are only 11 million illegals in the US in total. Imagine that, how dumb they think the American people are. 11 million people for the past 15 years they’ve been lying about it. That number is closer to 60 million folks.
Maher criticized the Democratic Party’s reluctance to define a limit to immigration, suggesting that any attempt to set such a boundary is quickly labeled as racist, which he sees as a central issue with the party’s approach to immigration. He likened the executive order’s mechanism to surge pricing, indicating its unpopularity and describing it as a desperate, last-minute effort akin to a “Hail Mary pass” before the election, doubting its effectiveness in resolving the immigration issues.
