Bill Maher Predicts GOP Will Get ‘Dogs**t Kicked Out Of’ Them In Midterms Over ICE Raids | EUROtoday

Bill Maher on Friday warned the Republican Party about their diminishing probabilities within the upcoming midterm elections, citing the “really ugly” photos popping out of Minnesota amid the chaotic and ongoing presence of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement there.

The “Real Time” host shared his prediction the evening earlier than federal immigration brokers in Minneapolis shot and killed a 37-year-old U.S. citizen, who has since been recognized by his dad and mom as Alex Pretti — a nurse who attended the University of Minnesota.

Maher on Friday was talking to visitor Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.), agreeing that ICE has made their “point” that there are “too many illegals” within the U.S., citing former President Joe Biden and his border insurance policies for an inflow of undocumented employees.

“But these images,” stated Maher. “Like I said, really ugly.”

He commented on a number of the photographs proven on display, decrying ICE for forcing a person outdoors in subfreezing temperatures in his underwear, detaining a 5-year-old boy outdoors his house and dragging a pregnant girl en path to the physician out of her automobile.

“John, I’m just going to say it to you,” stated Maher. “You know I’m not trying to pick a fight right away, but my prediction is — this stuff? Your party is going to get the dogshit kicked out of you in the midterms … Because this is not what people voted for.”

Maher isn’t the primary to foretell a midterm catastrophe for the Republicans. Political pundits and consultants on either side of the aisle have voiced comparable ideas — together with Daily Wire co-founder Ben Shapiro, Democratic strategist James Carville and GOP advisor Karl Rove.

Maher’s prediction was particularly centered on the ICE presence in Minnesota, nevertheless, which resulted in what he referred to as the “execution” of 37-year-old Renee Good earlier this month.

“You don’t have to be Einstein’s cousin or a senior at Cal Tech to know that illegal immigration is illegal,” Kennedy responded. “Those of us who believe that no one is above the law have to concede that folks who are in our country illegally are not above the law, either.”

Kennedy confirmed that he helps present U.S. immigration legal guidelines, however added that it “matters” how stated legal guidelines are enforced — and declared this needs to be completed “in accordance with due process, equal protection and Terry v. Ohio, reasonable suspicion.”

“It’s OK to protest,” stated Kennedy. “It’s not OK to protest violently.”

Maher then famous that the 5-year-old boy who was detained earlier this week was doing no such factor. While his Republican visitor stated he understood, Kennedy reiterated that violently protesting is “stupid” — and that “somebody’s gonna get hurt.”

Maher countered that he hasn’t heard of anybody defending violent protests, nevertheless.

He went on to ask his different visitor, CNN host Kasie Hunt, if she’s heard any completely different. Hunt responded plainly, “No,” earlier than arguing that President Donald Trump is already “seeing that Americans are not behind these tactics” ICE has employed towards Minnesotans.

Following Saturday’s deadly capturing in Minneapolis, Trump posted remarks laying blame on native police on his Truth Social platform — earlier than pivoting to a winding rant about large-scale welfare fraud in Minnesota.
