Bill Maher Lays Into Kamala Harris Over Playing Victim in Memoir: 'Nothing's Ever Kamala's Fault' [View all]

Bill Maher Lays Into Kamala Harris Over Playing Victim in Memoir: ‘Nothing’s Ever Kamala’s Fault’
“It should’ve been called, ‘Everyone Sucks But Me,'” the comedian adds
Alyssa Ray
Bill Maher took aim at former Vice President Kamala Harris while discussing the role of gender in politics, and accused the once presidential hopeful of being a prime example of why the left keeps losing elections.
During Friday night’s episode of “Real Time With Bill Maher,” the comedian tackled the divide in American politics, noting “that divide is on steroids now and getting worse.”
As he continued, Maher called on the women of the Democratic party to “look tough” and stop “perpetuating victimhood, especially when it’s false.”
He added, “It’s not a great advertisement for leadership.”
