Bill Maher: Media would cover Hunter Biden scandals daily if it were Trump Jr.
Comedian Bill Maher Slams Media for Ignoring Hunter Biden Scandals
During an interview on MSNBC with Ari Melber, comedian Bill Maher criticized the media for failing to cover the scandals involving Hunter Biden. Maher pointed out the double standard, suggesting that if Donald Trump Jr. had engaged in similar behavior, it would be constantly in the news.
Maher expressed his frustration with the comparison between Trump and Biden, stating, “Do I love everything about Biden? No. But I just don’t understand how they can look at what Trump did… The Hunter Biden scandal stinks to the high heavens, and it’s real corruption that the Left-wing media refuses to cover.”
He emphasized that while the Hunter Biden scandal is significant, it pales in comparison to what Trump did. Maher argued that there is no equivalency between the two situations and criticized the use of whataboutism to deflect from the issue at hand.

Maher also highlighted the disparity in media coverage if Hunter Biden were a Republican. He suggested that if Donald Trump Jr. had been involved in the same actions, it would dominate the news cycle. Maher humorously questioned who would be responsible if cocaine were found in the White House, highlighting the potential hypocrisy in the media’s handling of such situations.

TRANSCRIPT:
BILL MAHER: I don’t understand how they can equate this equivalency between Trump and Biden. Do I love everything about Biden? No. But I just don’t understand how they can look at what Trump did — now, does the Hunter Biden scandal stink? It really does. It stinks to the high heavens. That’s real corruption there, that a lot of the Left-wing media will not cover. But it’s nothing like what Trump did. There’s just no equivalency to be — you can say, whataboutism for anything, but…you just can’t tell unlike things apart, if you see that the same way. But they also shouldn’t cover up what — I mean, if Don Jr. had done the things that Hunter Biden did, it would be every day. If they found cocaine in the White House, whose could it be? Who does cocaine around here? We can’t figure it out.
