Bill Maher defended Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker on his show on Friday night, after remarks made by the sports star at a college graduation landed him in hot water with liberals.
At Benedictine College last weekend, Butker told graduands and especially female graduands that, for many of them, getting married and starting a family would be the most exciting and fulfilling thing they would go on to do.
“How many of you are sitting here now, about to cross this stage, and are thinking about all the promotions and titles you are going to get in your career? Some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world. ButI would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world.”
He also spoke negatively about Pride month and abortions.
The backlash was immediate after video of the speech found its way to social media. Butker’s speech was described as “misogynistic” and a “textbook case of conservative sexism and homophobia” by Vox.
The NFL distanced itself from Butker’s remarks in an official statement: “His views are not those of the NFL as an organization. The NFL is steadfast in our commitment to inclusion, which only makes our league stronger.”
On his show on Friday night, Bill Maher defended Butker against his critics and those who are trying to make him “history’s greatest monster.”
“I don’t see what the big crime is, I really don’t. And I think this is part of the problem people have with the left is that lots of people in this country are like this.”
Maher then scolded leftists for believing their way is the only way to live.
“I feel like they feel very put upon, like, there’s only one way to be a good person, and that’s to get an advanced degree from one of those a**hole factories like Harvard.”
He also ripped college students for their hypocrisy in condemning Butker and supporting Hamas.
“The college kids and the young people find this [women staying home and having children] absolutely abhorrent. But they’re demonstrating for Hamas who make that a law.”
