Bill Maher Anything You're For, I'm Against ... Even If It Makes No Frickin' Sense!!!
Bill Maher made a point Friday night that should make most of us uncomfortable ... we can like something until the people we dislike like it as well, and then we hate it!
The 'Real Time' host gave a slew of examples ... Democrat liberals LOVED them some electric cars -- especially Teslas -- until Elon Musk embraced Donald Trump. Suddenly, Teslas were catching fire ... but not the good "fire" ... they were being torched by anti-Trumpers. And MAGA -- which hated electric cars -- embraced the Cybertruck like it was a Ford 150.
And here's a good one ... the left scoffed at Marjorie Taylor Greene when she said Catholic Bishops are controlled by Satan, but back in the day, when Sinead O'Connor tore up a pic of the Pope on 'SNL' ... liberals celebrated it.

Conservative commentator Michael Knowles says concerns about an extravagant gift from a foreign country for President Donald Trump's use are overblown, and that what some are calling a bribe is actually just a great deal on a necessary replacement item.
Knowles -- a longtime podcast host at Ben Shapiro's Daily Wire -- was on "TMZ Live" Wednesday to discuss a controversial gift from the government of Qatar to President Trump ... a $400 million Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet Trump plans to convert for use as Air Force One, the official presidential airliner.
Knowles jokes his primary complaint is that it's not a nicer plane ... he questions why people are upset over a simple gift to the government -- adding we just need to "slap some new paint on the side." Free is a generously good deal, he says.
