It’s a white whine fest. That’s the observation Bill Maher noted about the October 18 'No Kings' circus, which did nothing but increase the popularity of the Republican Party and Donald Trump. The Democrats have lost the messaging war regarding fighting this administration. The 2024 election, the spending battles, and now this shutdown—it’s all been a calamity. It’s become so insufferable that Democrats lost their grip on the Obama coalition, which has become the Trump base. The GOP has taken over these voter blocs, which has to drive these people insane. So, who’s left? A bunch of gays and old, white boomers who have yet to understand that 1968 is no more.
Maher noted how some papers struggled to find black people at these rallies, observing that these lefty antics were “very white.”

And, of course, Biden’s former White House communications director was triggered by Maher’s remarks:

Kate Bedingfield really tried her best to defend Mamdani, but Maher got a round of applause when he pressed her with this inconvenient fact:

“He seems like a sweet guy, Mamdani. But…this is not just New York that’s on the ballot—I think the whole Democratic Party in the country is on the ballot.
