Bill is now my favorite on YTube. Tonight's video was especially entertaining. Dealing with the recent firestorm inside the Washington Post and one of its former employee's rant about a joke re-tweeted by a co-worker and that she found offensive. Bill had plenty to say about it and, well, you just have to watch it to understand. This guy is gold!

When did my thinking become more like his or his more like mine? I didn't see it coming but I love it!

If you haven't seen it yet, do it now. You'll find yourself doing something you probably haven't been doing for a while now. That would be laughing.

I still remember watching Charles Bronson's movie, Death Wish (never watched any of the sequels though) from the early 70's and thought the same thing as Bill states here.

I have always thought Bill was more conservative... I think he had a personal thing with Trump (Trump sued him over a joke) and thus was breaking left out of angry at Trump.

I was disappointed with his show this weekend. His TDS will not allow him to be objective about Jan 6th.

I firmly believe it was not an insurrection and that Trump did nothing wrong.

Also, Krystal Ball was awful. I’ve watched her a little bit in the past, but I didn’t realize she was a full on left wing progressive. I disagreed with just about everything she said.

Bill is just frustrating. It seems like he’s about to get it, then he just slips back into left wing nonsense.

Dave Rubin comments on Bill quite a bit, saying the same thing. Right when you think he’s about to become red pilled, he snaps out of it.

Real TDS is the belief that Trump won the election. Trump did nothing wrong?
It takes a special type of person to be fined for robbing his own charity.

1. Trump is an A-Hole.
2. Trump did a really good job as president.
3. The election was rigged and stolen.

Have a nice day.

Interesting. I don't have HBO or cable for that matter so the YT clips are all I can go by. Haven't seen the ones from this weekend, although we're only into Saturday so I don't know what his schedule is like.

All I can really say is this isn't the Bill Mayer from the past or at least not to my recollection. As I've said previously, maybe I'm the one who has changed. I know that as I age, I have a lot of memories of past Administrations and they've all made bonehead decisions. This current one, though? I do enjoy Bill's jabs but maybe I'm just in the market more to laugh at, instead of being angry and frustrated.

Yes, just watched the show on Today, Saturday, as we had taped it last night.

Washington Post deserved every single one of those jokes. And as a boomer, I’m loving my job security!

It does offer an amazing theory on why, with all the youth in the Democrat Party, they can't find anyone but old folks to actually run things.
