Bill Maher Calls For Biden To Drop Out of the 2024 Race: ‘Looks Like His Own Skeletal Remains’
HBO’s “Real Time” host Bill Maher called for Joe Biden to bow out of the 2024 presidential race, citing his cognitive and physical decline.
Maher on his show Friday heaped praise on Biden’s policies before acknowledging that unless he drops out, former President Donald Trump will surely win the presidency again.
“Someone has to convince President Biden that if he runs again, he’s going to turn the country back over to Trump and go down in history as Ruth Bader Biden, the person who doesn’t know when to quit, and so does great damage to their party and their country,” Maher said, referring to the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg, who refused to step down until her death in 2020, clearing the path for Trump to nominate conservative Justice Amy Coney Barrett.
“To those who say he beat Trump once, he’ll do it again, I say things change. They always do,” Maher said. “The parade moves on. 2024 is not 2020 in so many key ways, including yes, Biden being four years older. You can be a national treasure and still be too old for the job. If I’m on a plane and the pilot says ‘This is your captain, Buzz Aldrin,’ I’m getting off.”
Maher also admitted that despite Trump being close in age to Biden at 77, Trump is somehow more vigorous and full of energy, while Biden “looks like his own skeletal remains.
“Say what you want about Trump, but he remembers Kanye’s name,” Maher quipped. “At some point, perception becomes reality. What matters is voters think Biden’s too old. What matters is he’s gonna lose to Trump, who is almost the same age but his age just doesn’t read like Biden’s. Maybe it’s because Trump is insane. Maybe it’s because he’s always a ball of white-hot anger, but for whatever reason, he looks robust. And Joe looks like his own skeletal remains.”
“Trump is like KISS. He puts on the face paint and the wig and he looks like he did in 1978!” Maher added.
Maher then appealed to Biden to “let someone else finish” his ‘Build Back Better’ agenda.
“Joe, you did noble service for your country and you check that big box, the President of the United States,” Maher said. “Of course, as a politician, you’re naturally going to say ‘but the work is not finished.’ Of course not, it never is. But it’s time to let someone else finish it.”
This comes amid numerous mainstream media polls showing Biden has low approval among even Democrat voters.
