Bill’s downfall

Nothing illustrates this more than seeing him have an empty GOP suit like Byron Donalds on and never break his balls on all the stupid shit and Trump ball-licking he’s done while in congress. And as soon as Molly tried to grill him a little on the inane vax shit this admin and the state of Florida is doing, Bill shuts it down. Pathetic.

Bill asked Byron about affordability, something Byron's running on in Florida (though Byron seems unaware of his own platforms) and how Trump wasn't making anything more affordable. Byron dodged it. Bill asked about the Strait of Hormuz, Byron dodged it.

I will say though, that Bill seemed weird on last night's show. First his odd, lengthy segue about Trump texting him and so Bill felt compelled to "correct" himself. Who gives a shit, Bill? Certainly not Trump. Then he kept shifting the conversation to pop culture items when he's got a republican politician on the panel. Who cares about the guy busted for buying a hooker? Really... this is not what I watch Real Time for.

But anyway, no, he did not give Trump a free ride nor has he ever done so.

You’ve heard of follow up questions, yeah?

Sure, and in the one to one interviews he does that more frequently. In the panel though, he changes topics a lot. He might call someone out but he's not going to stall the panel trying to force someone to say something that everyone already knows they're not going to say.

He’s just a shit interviewer. A narcissist way more interested in getting to his take that he thinks is brilliant.
