Summary

Megyn Kelly is joined by Bill Maher, author of the book "What This Comedian Said Will Shock You," to talk about how radical gender ideology involving kids is like "entrapment," the rise of the common sense middle and non-extremists, not being afraid of losing audience, whether Democrats should replace Biden with someone normal, the most important issues in 2024, the difference between Republicans and Democrats, issues like Hunter Biden, the border, and "democracy," woke progressives social justice warriors standing with Hamas and other terrorists, the need for the left to support women and actual liberal ideals, the Ben Affleck vs. Sam Harris "Real Time" moment, Biden's embarrassing Morehouse commencement speech pandering to black voters, why wokeness is the opposite of liberalism, no longer being allowed to say things like "reservation" or "master bedroom," how American immigrants oppose illegal immigration, Stormy Daniels' changing story about what really happened with Trump, whether Trump will be convicted and whether it'll have any impact on the election, the value of conversation with those we disagree with, and more.
