Bill Maher criticizes double standards among liberals regarding Tesla attack and announces comedian’s upcoming meeting with Trump

Bill Maher has called out liberals for being hypocritical after a wave of attacks on Teslas across the country. 

Several Tesla dealerships around the country have been vandalized in recent weeks and the company’s stock price has plummeted over the past month. 

During his opening monologue on ‘Real Time with Bill Maher’, the 69-year-old said: ‘Elon he has his problems, liberals are furious at Elon. 

‘There are reports of Tesla vehicles being burned, and various protests taking place. Those two astronauts who spent 9 months in space must be surprised, thinking, “Do the liberals dislike Tesla now?”.’

‘It’s like drag queens attacking wigs. Trump’s trying to defend his boy, last week he was selling Teslas on the White House lawn. 

‘This week the Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick was imploring Americans to buy a Tesla.

‘People please, the richest man in the world is hurting, give him what you can. $5, $10, even a dollar to put a smile on an oligarch’s face.’

In closing, Maher poked fun at latest figures showing that approval rating for the Democrats was at an all time low.

He added: ‘People say the Democrats are in the wilderness, that’s not the wilderness that’s getting eaten by a bear.’

His remarks come after it was revealed that Maher will meet with President Trump after a decades-long feud at the White House. 

Bill Maher has a history of insulting the president since his foray into politics. Trump even sued Maher in 2013 for suggesting that Trump’s father was an orangutan.

It appears that Kid Rock, a mutual acquaintance of the two, brokered the peace talks between the two. 

Maher told fellow comic Andrew Schultz on an episode of his podcast Club Random set to debut Sunday that the meeting is happening.

‘Kid Rock was here a couple of weeks ago, and he said, “I want you to meet Trump.”

He said, “I’m gonna take you to the White House.” So, now we’re gonna do that,’ Maher said.

The 54-year-old musician, whose real name is Bob Ritchie, revealed his intention to bring Maher, a close friend of his, on a visit during a recent appearance on Glenn Beck’s show.

‘I’m actually going to try and unite this country, and I’m starting at the end of the month I’m taking Bill Maher to the White House for dinner,’ he said.

Attacks on Tesla vehicles, dealerships and charging stations have been happening across the nation. 

Protests have also been staged at dealerships in direct response to Musk’s involvement with President Trump and his running of DOGE. 

Last weekend, roughly 250 activists gathered outside a showroom in New York City, holding anti-Musk placards. 

There have also been over a dozen acts of vandalism against Tesla vehicles, dealerships and charging stations since Trump’s inauguration.

Most recently, a row of Tesla cars were seen exploding into flames after an arson attack on a dealership in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Tuesday morning. 

Police said the unknown suspect, who was seen at the scene in all black, managed to completely burn out two of the cars while damaging three others. 

Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a statement on Thursday that those attacking the vehicles and dealerships will face the ‘full force of the law’.

She said: ‘Let this be a warning: if you join this wave of domestic terrorism against Tesla properties, the Department of Justice will put you behind bars.’ 

Recent attacks have been reported in Seattle, Kansas City, Las Vegas and other cities across the country.
