Bill Maher says liberals should stop ‘obsessing’ about Trump’s lies: “That is who he is.”

Comedian and pundit Bill Maher argued that Democrats and the media should “stop obsessing” over Donald Trump’s lies because being a liar is who is.

On Friday’s episode of Real Time with Bill Maher on HBO, the host argued that Republicans have accepted Trump for the liar he is and seems to suggest that Democrats and the media should do the same.

“If you’re a conservative and you see him say many, many things that are not even close to true, you just don’t care anymore,” Maher said in a clip highlighted by Mediaite. “This is so baked in the cake. That is who he is. They do not take him literally or think he needs to be taken literally. It’s an amazing advantage in politics, I think, but that’s it.”

On the other hand, Maher said liberals are “obsessed” with Trump’s lies because they’ve been “watching MSNBC every day” and see the network’s hosts fact checking the president.

“I’m bored with that shit! Okay? This is what he does,” Maher said. “I just take everything with a grain of salt.”

Maher made the comment during a discussion about Trump’s speech before a joint session of Congress on Tuesday.

During the speech, Trump made several false and misleading claims about a number of issues including the economy, immigration, the Biden administration, DOGE and climate.
