In yet another early indication that President Trump is going to cruise to reelection thanks to the Dems’ embrace of socialism, Bill Maher spanked Michael Moore during a heated exchange on his HBO program on Friday night.

The smarmy, foul-mouthed comic may be a dyed in the wool Democrat but he has made it clear that he isn’t down with the party’s radicalism as put forth by Twitter demagogue Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her fellow Squad members.

Maher likely infuriated the social media hate mobs when he ripped into the morbidly obese propagandist on “Real Time With Bill Maher” over Moore’s insistence that AOC and the rabidly anti-Semitic freshmen Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib are the tickets to electoral success in 2020.

The four dishonest demagogues who have become celebrity rock stars and by virtue of their media coverage are the proverbial tail that wags the dog and are not an asset at all according to Maher, but rather a liability even more enormous than the filmmaker’s oversized derriere.

“Why pull back now, Bill?” Moore asked.

“The country isn’t there,” Maher shot back. “You’re lumping a lot of vague shit together. The country is for raising the minimum wage, of course. The country is not for Medicare for All.”

Moore briefly went off on Trump’s “evil genius” and said Democrats need to be fighting for progressive beliefs.

Maher skeptically asked why Moore wants “the Squad” to be front and center for Democrats, when that’s something Trump would like too.

“People love them,” Moore said. “People of color love them, women of color love them!”

“Of the entire electorate,” Maher said, “not one of them has an approval rating above 25 percent. So you’re making this up. They’re not beloved, these people.”

“It is not good. It is kind of a cancer on progressivism. I have been saying this for years, that, first of all, you have to stand up to Twitter. Twitter isn’t us. Twitter isn’t the rank and file Democrat. It is not even most liberals. But they don’t do it. This race is begging for someone to do a kind of a ‘Sister Souljah’ moment with that far left. Maybe, you know, Trump wants to run against ‘The Squad.’ Maybe that would be a good place for that kind of blowback against what I think is not being good for the Democratic Party.

But as was evident on the big debate stage in Houston on Thursday when the 2020 field worked to one-up each other on who is more in line with AOC-style extremism, open borders, gun confiscation, and socialism, this is a runaway train that is already too far down the track to avoid a catastrophic wreck.

Trump is likely going to put a whuppin’ on the Democrats that will look a lot like Ronald Reagan’s 512 electoral vote steamrolling of Walter Mondale in 1984 while rendering all of the left’s whining about the Electoral College moot.

Maher may extol the virtues of smoking pot but it’s Moore whose brain seems to be little more than bong sludge.
