Yet Maher was as appalled as anyone at Saturdays Trump assassination attempt.
In it, he made clear that he wouldnt use the event for comedic purposes.
I unequivocally denounce [the shooting], I dont care what you think about that, Maher said.

Anything can happen in an election.
but Jesus Christ: MAGA nation finally has its full martyr.
They loved it when he went to jail.
I gotta say, hes insane and a criminal.
But that mug shot?
And he [reacted to the shooting] like he rehearsed it!
[Got it on] take one!
There will be idiot conspiracy theorists who will say, Oh they planned it.
He gets grazed and the other guy gets [killed] thats so Trump.
Its going to work for him.
I can see the memes now the man the libtards couldnt kill.
Biden cant get through a debate and a bullet cant stop Donald Trump.
It almost doesnt matter who the Democrats put up now.
Whoever did this, the shooter has done so much damage to the Left, Maher said.
Okay, thats not cool either.
This shit has got to stop, because none of this violence happens in a vacuum.
But Im glad [Trumps] okay.
I gotta say this: Hes the luckiest motherfucker that has ever walked the face of the Earth.
The Democratic turmoil thats going on right now with Joe Biden being his opponent.
Always lucky, lucky, lucky.
