'In L.A. I think I’ve seen one Trump sign, and Scott Baio was sleeping under it' Bill Maher opening monologue 09.06 transcript

(The downfall of USA under Trump caused me to start the Transcript Project at CofA Blog, then Biden dropped out and Kamala became nominee. Now instead of documenting our “strange times” these transcripts are documenting our… period of hope? I hope it is. So, here is next addition to the CofA Blog Transcript Project, opening monologue of Real Time with Bill Maher 09/06/24 lotsa smart jokes about the upcoming election to read here, happy Sunday.)


TRANSCRIPT (Video linked below)

So there's a lot to talk about, election is only two months away. And of course it happens every time. Doesn’t  even matter who runs, every year we do this. It always comes down to a few thousand people in three states who can't make up their mind between two items on the menu, you [Applause] know.

Best thing about living in California is that we're not a swing state, so they leave us alone, really. I mean all year in L.A. I think I’ve seen one Trump sign and Scott Baio was sleeping under it, just a joke, we kid, all in good fun, no.

We have we have much bigger problems out here. Today here it was 118 in the Valley. Oh I was sweating like JD Vance in a donut shop, wow [Applause] oh it it was hot. Kanye’s wife asked him if she could put something on so she could take something off, I mean it [Applause] was.

But if you're a political Watcher, it is getting exciting, because the debate is Tuesday, a few days away, you excited about that I cannot wait to see this thing, Trump and Kamala.

Trump says he doesn't know whether Kamala is Indian or she'll be black that night, so he's preparing two sets of slurs. And this is great. They they finally resolved the microphone issue with the debate. They've been arguing about this for weeks now.

Kamala wanted the mics on when the other guy was talking so we could find out what a nut Trump is, you know, not like we don't know. And Trump wanted them off. And Trump won, the microphones will be off. And this is weird. He also asked that my microphone be turned off.  

Very very strict rules during this debate. No huddling with your advisers during the commercial breaks. You only get when you're out there a pad paper and water. And Kamala asked for Tim Walz. But other than that uh but look-

The Democrats switched their strategy. They used to be about democracy. Trump is threatening democracy which he is but that [ __ ] didn't sell yeah democracy whatever.

So they went to he's weird. People love this. This is selling. People are buying this one. And it's really upsetting Trump because he was doing an interview with Sean Hannity and he's kind of obsessed with this weird thing.

He said no, Walz is the one who's weird. He said, JD Vance is a solid rock. And then he said and you know what, I'm a very solid rock. That's so Trump. He always has to be better even when he's calling you a rock he has to be a better Rock I mean [Applause].

It's almost like it's weird.

But here's the other thing that we've seen  many times, you see it every election cycle, they're going through it again. The music that the Republican plays at their rallies is not- the people they're playing do want- don't play our music we hate you.

And Bruce Springsteen went through you too. We went through this Jackson Brown,, Rage Against the Machine had to tell the guy look we hate you, we think you are the machine, that's why we're raging so [Applause]. Now now I think the Isaac Hayes estate is is upset because Trump has been playing Hold On I'm Coming and he said no you can't play Hold On I'm Coming.

And Trump said oh when else am I ever going to hear that, come on [Applause]. And okay so two months of the election and again something we've seen before-

And now we see it every time. Russia is at it again, interfering with our elections. We saw it when they got involved with Facebook putting [ __ ] up there remember. We saw it again in all social media. Now this time they're big on influencers, Gamers, any any place where real people are online.

I'm pretty sure my Only Fans girlfriend is taking orders from Putin because I asked her yesterday I said I asked her if she swallows and she said, yes, Ukraine. All right.
