Welcome to an HBO podcast from the HBO late-night series, Real Time with Bill Maugh. Sit your ass down. I know why. Are they excited? I think I know why, because the Democrats almost won an election. Hey, we almost. Anyway, so people now, especially on the Democratic side, are asking if Nancy Pelosi has, you know, seen her better days. And maybe we should make room for rising stars in the Democratic Party.

And then someone pointed out, there are no rising stars, and the Democratic Party will fly in the ointment there. But I hope they find someone because the Republicans unveiled their health care bill. They were keeping it a secret as long as possible. It was like, you know, when a movie is a piece of shit, the studio doesn't show it to the reviewers. Just like that. It was done.

And by the way, this bill was crafted by 13 white men. Yeah, they said they didn't want to be accused of colluding with women. polluting. Yeah. See? I'm getting people mad now. Not laughing a lot, but they're mad. That's what we're trying to do here.

Now, Trump said he hoped the bill would surprise a lot of people. You know, I said, surprise, we took away your health care. He remembered Trump, you know, all during the campaign, he said the health is going to be cheaper, better, with total coverage. total coverage. I guess judging by his hairstyle, his idea of total coverage is very different. But besides being cruel, it's extremely dishonest

because the really cruel stuff doesn't happen right away. They're phasing out Medicaid expansion by 2021, repealing it completely by 2024. Or as the Republicans say, if you like your doctor, you have time to say goodbye to your doctor.

Now, of course, this is really, really important news that affects people's lives, but the media today was all over another story, the stupid story about how Trump, 41 days ago, said, maybe, maybe I have tapes of Comey. Today, he said, no, just kidding. There are no tapes of conversations with the camera. Now, this seems weird and irresponsible,

but Trump supporters say he's delivering on his promise to never stop fucking with the American people. Yeah, he said about the Russia investigation today. He said it's a hoax. That's what he always says. You know, a Democrat excuse. Democrats' excuse for losing the election. Ha-ha. Like Democrats, need an excuse to lose an election.
