0:00.0 | Welcome to an HBO podcast from the HBO late night series Real Time with Bill Maugh. |
0:07.0 | Thank you. Please sit down. Thank you so much. I know why you're happy today. It's Memorial Day weekend. |
0:37.5 | Sharing at home. Okay, well, I love Memorial Day. You know, I'm glad it's come because finally I get a chance to just kick back and hang around the house. |
0:51.0 | No, I do love. We all should love Memorial Day. It's when we remember the brave Americans who put their lives on the line to protect our way of life. |
0:59.0 | I'm talking of course about the delivery people from GrubHub. |
1:02.0 | But the big medical news this week is remember a hydroxychloroquine, the stuff that they were saying was going to be the big cure all and then they were like, now this shit doesn't work. It's not for this. And then Trump now says he's on it. He's taking it. |
1:21.0 | And not only that, he got mad at the Fox News anchor Neil Cavuto because Neil Cavuto heard him say I'm taking this stuff and Neil Cavuto said, yeah, that'll kill you. |
1:35.0 | I Trump, I got this man. First he says, let's try drinking household disinfectants. Now we saw this shit. |
1:46.0 | Today Vladimir Putin said, I hope I don't have to poison this motherfucker. I don't think we have anything strong enough. |
1:55.0 | Now this drug is for people who have lupus or malaria. So wrap your mind around this. The President of the United States has put himself on a drug for two diseases he does not have. |
2:09.0 | Also, he's starting on something next week for vaginitis. |
2:15.0 | Just to be safe. I don't get this Donald Trump. He's never had a drink. Never did pot. No drugs in college. |
2:28.0 | But at the age of 73, Laura Ingram comes by and says, hey man, put this on your tongue. He's like, I'm all in. |
2:38.0 | Okay. But of course he always is the master of changing the subject. This week it was to obamigate, obamigate, what a scandal. |
2:48.0 | Yes, already losing steam the scandal because it lacks that crucial ingredient that most scandals need to have an allegation. |
2:56.0 | Trump, Trump fans are ready to be all angry at this, but they don't know what it is. Even Glenn Beck's truck board says to be determined. |
3:10.0 | But look, I guess the bright side of this is that all 50 states now are at least partially open. But again, no plan. No consistencies. It's the opposite of Afghanistan. We have no entrance strategy. |
3:32.0 | The theme seems to be you can go out, but you can't have fun. What married people call date night. |
3:43.0 | For example, California has reopened some parks, beaches, hiking trails, but again the inconsistencies you can walk on the beach, but you can't congregate. And yet the restrooms are open for gay sex. |
3:56.0 | Oh, hiking, that's very big out here. You know, hiking people are always going hiking. That you know what hiking is. That's when a guy and a girl walk up a mountain because she wants exercise and he thinks it's a date. |
4:09.0 | Georgia, of course, one of the first states to reopen. They again, inconsistent. You can go to the waffle house to eat, but the ban remains on parking lot fist bites. |
4:25.0 | Yeah, in Georgia and in Texas, they open the churches and then they had to reclose them because people got the disease. And you know, look, I make fun of religion, but I can't blame people for wanting to go to church in person and have that experience. |
