Bill Maher: ‘Cult Leader’ Taylor Swift Could Swing Election
Bill Maher has said that Taylor Swift could swing the election to Kamala Harris with a social media post—and despite the comedian being no fan of Donald Trump, he is not in favor of the move.
On the latest episode of his Club Random podcast, Maher told comedian—and proud Swiftie—Nikki Glaser, “If she said, ‘Vote for Trump,’ then he’d win,” adding, “That’s not good.”
“Trump [with his supporters], that’s a cult—but so is this,” Maher continued, referring to Swift’s fanbase. “It is a cult. Maybe a cult leader can be a source for good and not evil and I think she genuinely is [good]. I have no reason to put her down or desire to. I always have the greatest respect for a success,” he continued. Maher had previously joked on Real Time With Bill Maher that the star “drives MAGA Nation crazy” because she’s also a “blonde billionaire with a cult,” like Trump.
