'Trump really does commit crimes': HBO's Maher cuts off conservative's whine about trials

On the Friday night HBO "Real Time Overtime" segment posted to YouTube, host Bill Maher finally had enough of conservative Rich Lowry's complaining about Donald Trump's legal problems and bluntly stated the former president is guilty of committing criminal acts.

Moments after National Review editor Rich Lowry went on an extensive rant about Trump's 34 felony convictions in a Manhattan courtroom, for which the former president will be sentenced after the election, Maher announced to the panel, "Trump really does commit crimes" to applause from the "Real Time" audience.

"He does commit crimes is one thing and two, if positions were reversed, and a Democrat did this, not only would the Republicans have gone after him, they would have done it instead of what the Democrats — talk about feckless —this is feckless. You had four years to bring four trials and we get none of them?"

Panelist John Avlon offered that Democrats were afraid of "politicizing" the trial which led Lowry to admit he was "appalled" by Trump inciting the Jan. 6 insurrection and that caused Maher to interject, "You're not so appalled that you're not going to vote for Trump? So you're not appalled."

With Lowry protesting, Maher continued, "He politicizes the Justice Department and he does not concede elections. These are two very new things. You can carp all you want and you can 'what about' all the bulls--t about 'Well the Democrats say he wasn't a legitimate president.' That is different than actually trying to stay in office! He is completely unprecedented. I mean it completely disqualifies to even consider voting for him. I don't know how anyone can."
