We reported earlier on the delusional takes that Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) engaged in on Bill Maher’s “Real Time” show on Friday.
It was quite something. Pelosi tried to justify giving illegal aliens money for a downpayment on homes. She also said she wanted to change the “undocumented” into “documented,” saying the quiet part out loud about the Democratic agenda.
On top of that, she added some more delusion, claiming that Kamala Harris wasn’t just anointed, that the nomination was “open,” anyone could have contested it, and Harris “wrapped it up”–as though she was a choice when not one primary vote was cast for her for the position.

Maher also had a panel discussion with political commentator and Columbia Professor John McWhorter and Puck’s Peter Hamby. Among the things they discussed was the Kamala Harris-Tim Walz joint interview.
Maher mocked Harris a bit, noting she had a “bad three years.”
“I don’t know why we ever thought she was as bad people thought she was. Biden had that one bad night, she had a bad three years. She did. But she’s fine,” he said. Yes, if you skip the bad three years. And all the bad positions before that. Oh, and the bad positions she would impose if she won. Apart from all that, she’s just great and her cackle is magical. Even Maher doesn’t seem to believe any of that.
The problem, of course? Most people know that she had a bad three years because they can feel it in their wallets and see it in the chaos that Biden and Harris brought to the world. That explains why Harris has a big problem when it comes to the voters. She’s losing young male voters who she can’t afford to lose, particularly if it’s a tight race. Maher acknowledged former President Donald Trump’s appeal to young male voters.
Hamby noted this is “remarkable,” because in the past you could generally count on the younger vote going toward the Democrats. He gave reasons, saying Trump “seems like a fun bro who isn’t going to ban your Zyns [nicotine pouches].” Yes, but he also has better policies that are going to help you keep more of your own money.
“This is a real issue for Kamala Harris,” Hamby pointed out. “This could be fatal for her campaign.” He explained that generally she needed to get above 60 percent of the youth vote, and she’s only at about 55 percent now. Hamby said Hillary Clinton failed to get it, and if Harris also fails, she could lose, and it’s because of those Gen Z men breaking to Trump.
Then they all had a big laugh over the optics of the Harris-Walz interview.
“It looked like when your dad goes with the young woman to help buy a car. You know, when dad comes along. Why?” Maher said, questioning the wisdom of the staging. “She hadn’t done an interview in so long.” He said they looked like a married couple, every interracial couple in every commercial.
“They messed it up, because they didn’t do the optics right,” McWhorter replied.
“She looked like she was only 2 feet tall, and he was up front looking like Frosty the Snowman. It failed, but I see what they were going for.”
What they were going for is still a mystery; everyone else missed it. It made her look small. And then she opened her mouth and it got worse. It just looked silly, as we reported.
