Bill Maher has revealed why its not looking that great for the Democrats for the upcoming presidential election.
On his political talk show Real Time with Bill Maher on HBO, comedian Bill Maher slammed Minnesota Governor Tim Walzs participation in a voter engagement event with black men, set for Friday night.
This is not a good sign when you have an African American candidate [Kamala Harris], and yet youre needing to bolster support among black men, Maher said in his monologue.
He added with a touch of sarcasm, And who better to connect with young black men than Tim Walz? Because, apparently, Michael Bublé was unavailable.
Meanwhile, Kim Kardashians like, hello? he continued, referencing the media moguls history of dating black men.

Maher noted that even former President Barack Obama was scolding young black men for not voting for Kamala Harris.
But of course, for some young, especially the younger black men, its a tough choice. Harris is African American and Trump has a sneaker line, he said.
Mahers jabs at the Harris-Walz campaign come shortly after the vice president nominees recent attempt to backtrack his comments about the role of the Electoral College.
When asked about his recent comments suggesting the Electoral College may have outlived its usefulness — during a campaign where he and his running mate Kamala Harris lead in national polls but could still lose to Donald Trump in key swing states — Walz clarified his stance.
The point Im trying to make is that theres folks that feel every vote must count in every state, and I think some of the folks feel thats not the case, Walz said in a sit-down interview on ABCs Good Morning America with Michael Strahan.
He then talked about what he and Harriss campaign position is.

Were out there making the case that the campaigns position is clear, that thats not their position. Their position and my position is to make sure that everybody understands their vote, no matter what state theyre in, matters.
You said, "I think all of us know the Electoral College needs to go," Strahan asked him at the top of their exchange. But the campaign came out later that night, and they said thats not their stance.
So, that’s something you and Vice President Harris disagree on, Strahan asked Walz.
I have spoken about it in the past, that she’s been very clear on this, and the campaign and my position is the campaign’s position, Walz said in response.
This comes after Walz sharply criticized Donald Trump after the former president warned that the entire country could end up like Detroit.
While visiting Warren, Michigan, as part of his manufacturing tour, Walz took aim at Trump’s remarks made a day earlier to the Detroit Economic Club.
In that speech, Trump claimed, The whole country will end up being like Detroit if she’s your president. You’re going to have a mess on your hands, addressing a bipartisan group of business leaders.
Walz fired back, saying, Donald Trump and JD Vance have a very different view of America. Yesterday, Trump said the whole country will end up like Detroit, but we know Detroit is experiencing a comeback, a renaissance.
He continued: As a Minnesota Twins fan, I know Detroit beat us, but the citys growing, crime is down, and factories are opening. These guys, though? All they know about manufacturing is manufacturing bull****, eliciting laughter from the crowd.
