Bill Maher Gets Schooled By Dan Crenshaw In Interview About Trump and Coronavirus

Republican Representative Dan Crenshaw was a guest on Bill Maher’s show last weekend to speak about coronavirus.

Bill Maher is claiming that “this did not have to happen.” He said Trump didn’t believe his advisors and blew off people like Azar and Navarro when they tried to tell him about the pending coronavirus.

This is where Bill Maher messes up. Dan Crenshaw stops Bill Maher in his tracks when he tries to push the narrative that Trump waited too long to shut the country down.

Bill Maher: “He was warned. This did not have to happen. Alex Azar, his health and human services guy; January 18, he warned him about this, and again on January 30th, Trump said he was being an alarmist. Peter Navarro, somebody else who talks to Trump a lot, told him directly January 29th, you’ve gotta get ahead of this.”

Dan Crenshaw: “Two days later he implemented a restrictive travel ban from China which he was widely criticized for. One that same day, January 31st, Nancy Pelosi proposed the No Ban Act, which would be a congressional limitation on what President Trump is actually able to do with that travel restriction.”

The look on Bill Maher’s face when he realizes that he is punching well above his weight class is priceless.

Bill Maher tries to say that Trump is lying about implementing the travel ban and stopping people from coming to America from China. Crenshaw interrupts him to school Maher once again on the facts.

Bill Maher: “He said he stopped people coming in from China. He did not. He said he was ahead of it. 43 countries did it before we did. There are still people coming in from China.”

Dan Crenshaw: “The reality is that about 40,000 people came in after that. These were U.S. citizens and green card holders and passport holders being re-patriated. U.S. citizens. So, you have to make the argument then that we shouldn’t allow them in. It sounds to me like you are fully agreeing with President Trump on this when everybody else disagreed with him.”

HAHAHAHA!

This is just a masterclass of how to deal with liberal idiots. Maher and his gang would disagree with Trump no matter Trump’s position.

Dan Crenshaw takes every single point Bill Maher is trying to make and defends the President with quick, factful responses. Bill has no idea how to handle Dan Crenshaw’s ability to debate him except to double down.

Dan’s commented about the timeline of when Italy and Spain (some of the hardest-hit areas in the world) shut their countries down.  Maher had this to say, “Since when does America take its lead from Italy and Spain?”

Dan’s response is so amazing that it actually makes Bill Maher give an expression of defeat. Crenshaw just dances straight through Maher’s timelines and gotcha points.

Dan Crenshaw: “Well because those are where the outbreaks were happening. I am pointing it out again for context. If we are going to criticize somebody’s actions we have to do it in context and the facts that they knew at the time.”

Maher keeps saying he understands, but does he really?

Crenshaw finishes by saying, “When people make these accusations, I have to ask them, is the goal to make Trump look bad, or is the goal to get to the truth?”

We know the answer to that. The Democrats only want to make Trump look bad no matter what the truth is. I, for one, am so thankful that Trump is President and not Hillary Clinton.

Bill Maher gets REKT without the high production spell that is Hollywood. No phony studio audience to save him. Great job by @DanCrenshawTX. pic.twitter.com/FWBgGsYJnO
