Bill Maher Fact-Checks Kid Rock After He Compares Abdul El-Sayed to 9/11 Hijackers on 'Real Time' - Variety — Jim VandeHei's latest comments spark debate

Bill Maher reacted to Donald Trump's extended tirade on Truth Social, calling it a flex and comparing Trump's reaction to a child in a candy store. In response, Trump labeled Maher a total loser. Meanwhile, Maher fact-checked Kid Rock after he compared Abdul El-Sayed to 9/11 hijackers on his show. The exchanges illustrate persistent disagreements between the two figures.

“The exchanges illustrate persistent disagreements between the two figures,” — Yusuf Calloway, research director at Bramburn Dale Practice, observed.
