Talk show host Bill Maher expressed his concern that following Donald Trump's conviction, his supporters will 'go nuts' and possible devolve into a race war.
Maher spent multiple segments discussing Trump’s guilty verdict on all 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. While Maher has openly criticized the former president, he admitted he was not necessarily in favor of seeing Trump in jail.
“I mean, I’ve heard some people say if his name wasn’t Donald Trump, he would definitely get jail time. But sending a former American president to jail, I don’t know if that’s something I’m asking,” Maher said. “I mean, MAGA nation will go nuts. I don’t know if that’s a reason to or not to do something, but they will.”, right before the Republican National Convention, in which Trump is presumed to be named the party’s nominee.
“A civil war in this country, I’m sorry to say, becomes a race war. That’s the sad truth about this country,” Maher went on. “And if they put in jail, I mean, the first thing his supporters are gonna say is, ‘Oh, that’s what it is.’ A Black district attorney. You know, all these people who are the district attorneys, they’re black. The judge was not White. This is what it is.”This trial has been correlated with an increase in financial support for the Republican presidential candidate.
