Speaker 2 Welcome to an HBO podcast from the HBO late night series, Real Time with Bill Maher.

Speaker 2 Thank you very much. How you doing?

Speaker 2 Thank you.

Speaker 2 Okay, look at this.

Speaker 3 It's not the size of the crowd, it's the enthusiasm that they have.

Speaker 3 And I appreciate that because America had another

Speaker 3 fucked up week.

Speaker 3 Right? Puerto Rico, Las Vegas. You know it's bad when you only have to say the names of the places and we know what we're talking about.

Speaker 3 Fortunately, we have a president with an uncanny ability to say just the right thing at moments of tragedy.

Speaker 3 Did you see what this moron...

Speaker 3 Oh, and by the way, moron? Did you hear Rex Tillerson? His Secretary of State called him a moron.

Speaker 3 What a hand for Rex Tillerson.

Speaker 3 So Rex Tillerson calls his boss the president, a fucking moron, not to his face.

Speaker 3 Trump hears about it, gets mad, makes Rex Tillerson hold a press conference to deny he called him a moron, something a moron would do.

Speaker 3 And Rex Tillerson gets out there, has the press conferences, and basically says, I remain loyal to the fucking moron. I mean, you can't make this shit up.

Speaker 3 Anyway, finally, the moron went to Puerto Rico

Speaker 3 this week. Imagine having to deal with a historic category five disaster.
And the hurricane was bad, too.

Speaker 3 And then he tells them, you've thrown our budget out of whack. Yes, because that's how presidents handle disasters.

Speaker 3 They tell people, remember Bush after 9-11, he got on the rubble with the bullhorn, this is going to be pricey.

Speaker 3 He talked to one survivor for a minute minute and then at the end said, have a good time.

Speaker 3 Have a good time?

Speaker 3 He talks to disaster survivors like they popped into a wedding at Mar-a-Lago. Loving the hurricane.
Tried the fudge cake. Have a good time.

Speaker 3 And then the

Speaker 3 ties de resistance, he launches paper towels. There it is, look at that.
Into the crowd. Like it's some sort of celebrity public appearance event.

Speaker 3 One woman held up her hungry baby and he signed it.

Speaker 3 So, to recap, the message from President Salt in the Wound

Speaker 3 to the people of Puerto Rico is: this is costing us a lot of money. It's not as bad as other disasters.
I'm doing great. Quit your bitching, have some paper towels.
Trump out.

Speaker 3 Thank you.
