really kissed his ass

and Maher doesn't know his facts well enough to deal with Conway's smooth gishgalloping

Her words

Bill is smart enough for all comers. His producers prep him better than most professional political debaters.

He is one of the worst prepared interviewers on TV. He has no depth and can't drill down to ask the important second and third questions on a subject.

Obama born in the United States, Trump supporters born yesterday.

Ha!

Kellyanne Conway and Ralph Reed of note, Margaret Hoover and Kerry Washington.

Bill: "...if you were running against Trump you would use negativity, too."

Bill: "...I am getting nervous not because Trump is good, but because people are stupid."

Quick deflection, pivot to Hillary.

This is their new tactic. - we are winning, she is losing and negative. It will stay like this unless the polls change drastically.

It will be necessary since he is deporting all the nannies.

Kerry Washington should be working for Hillary campaign.

Trump didn't create the swamp, he just rose from it.

Our political system is suffering from lack of decorum and decency - trashy.

Decent episode. You can dance to it. Overall I'd rate it a seven.

Conway is very good at her job, but Maher scored against Trump's BS. I don't think we get anywhere by only allowing the choir to speak. Reed came across as a buffoon and Conway and Conway as a paid shill for a lying, racist gangster.

I agree that having right wingers on is important and Maher usually does a great job taking them down but the polls lately have me down and I am more freaked out than usual.
