Bill Maher battles journalist over Biden’s re-election chances: ‘He’s going to f---ing lose!’

HBO host Bill Maher predicted President Biden would lose the presidential election to Donald Trump on this week's episode of his "Club Random" podcast.

The talk show host was debating the November election outcome with his liberal guest, journalist Kara Swisher.

Maher confessed he would "vote for [Biden's] head in a jar of blue liquid" over Trump, but he was still concerned Biden would lose to Trump.

"He's going to f---ing lose," he predicted.

Swisher disagreed and asked him if he would like to place a bet on the election outcome. Maher conceded that he could be persuaded in the other direction if presented with a good argument in support of a potential Biden victory.

Swisher estimated there was a silent majority of voters — particularly female voters — who would never vote for Trump, and would back Biden in November as the "less problematic" candidate.

Maher said that prediction was an "absolutely possible scenario" but he couldn't place bets either way.

However, he argued there's an equal likelihood that the "shy Trump voter" gives the former president an edge over Biden.

"The shy Trump voter is the one who's going to vote for Trump, but doesn't want you to know it because it's a little déclassé," he said, predicting this trend would be seen on Election Day even in deep blue cities.

Maher also addressed his critics on the left who've said he's "changed" over the years because of his reputation for calling out the "woke" left.

"That's so much more about them," he told Swisher of his liberal critics. "That's so much more about being locked in your tribal silo."

"That’s not who I’m working to anymore," he continued, adding that these people have to "fit into a trope."

During an appearance on "The View" last month, co-host Sunny Hostin clashed with Maher about the Democratic Party shifting to the far left on issues like Israel.

After he identified himself as an "old-school liberal," Hostin bluntly told Maher, "you've changed."

Despite the clash with Hostin, he had high praise for the show and its co-hosts during the podcast.

"I loved it," he told Swisher. "I think we all got along great."

After Swisher joked he was "very well-behaved" on the ABC show, Maher reiterated that he was able to get his points across while staying civil. 

Actor Michael Douglas visits Israel in solidarity, meets president

Actor Michael Douglas on Sunday paid a solidarity visit to an Israeli kibbutz that was hit hard in the Oct. 7 Hamas attack that sparked Israel’s war against the Islamic militant group.

Douglas met with members of Kibbutz Be’eri and visited burnt-out homes destroyed in the Oct. 7 attack. Be’eri was among the hardest hit communities, with roughly 100 people killed and 30 others taken hostage.

Douglas said he met families of hostages and visited the scene of a music party where over 300 people were killed.

He also met with Israel’s president, Isaac Herzog, who presented the actor with an Israeli dog tag necklace and small pin of a yellow ribbon — symbols of solidarity with the dozens of hostages who remain in Hamas captivity.

"It’s a very difficult time. You sense the deep shock of this whole experience," Douglas said, expressing hope that the hostages would be released soon.

Douglas also lashed out at anti-Israel protesters on American campuses — claiming that many have been subject to "brainwashing."

"When you try to talk to many of them, there is no education. There’s no knowledge," he said.

Douglas is the latest in a line of American celebrities and politicians who have visited Israel and toured the southern area near the Gaza border since Oct. 7.
