Democrats are hoping Trump will discredit himself with a recession, while the Left sometimes fantasizes about crisis destabilizing capitalism itself. But economic crises cause massive human suffering and have recently redounded more to the Right than the Left.
I’ve got a few problems with this article but honestly the thing that bothers me the most is saying Bill Maher is a moderate liberal commentator. He’s a conservative libertarian asshole and always has been. He’s never been moderate, he’s never been a liberal.
Alex Jones also calls Maher a liberal, using him to represent the entire non Republican political sphere. Maher is not a moderate and I don’t like seeing someone who is from the left calling him that.
