HBO host Bill Maher eviscerated far left liberals as he laid into the Democratic party for losing the 2024 presidential election.
The 68-year-old comedian didn't hold back on Friday night when he accused some Democrats of being flat-out 'stupid.'
The comedian devoted his weekly New Rule segment describing the party's recent losing campaign: 'When you're in a hole, stop digging, not keep digging.'
'Talk about doubling down on what got you f***** in the first place,' he added.
Maher went on mocking Democrats as he referenced 'Queers for Palestine' T-shirts and those who are 'still wearing masks, two years after the pandemic ended,' adding that Donald Trump supporters 'don't have a monopoly on stupid.'
The eight-minute segment also poked fun at sitting President Joe Biden.
The comedian pointed out the president 'refused to define a "woman" during a House hearing' earlier this year, as Maher claimed it's just 'a person who menstruates.'

Maher also teased the Teachers Union Education Program, which is largely run by Democratic voters, claiming they've 'turned schools and colleges into a joke'.
However, Maher praises the Democrats ability to 'speak truth to power,' just before he nearly redacts his statement claiming the progressive-leaning party has 'completely lost it's ability to speak truth to bull****.'
The famed television host, who has appeared on popular daytime television shows like The View and on CNN, likened the liberal party to a 'Portlandia sketch'.
He then took a deeper dive into identity politics, as he described the Democrats as 'a bunch of privileged mean girls complaining about privilege and trying to make "fetch" happen.'
Maher also stressed 'that liberals should stop saying that Trump voters are stupid, comes with a kind of unspoken parenthesis.'
'We know they are stupid,' Maher jokes, adding, 'just don't say it.'
Maher also insulted Trump as he says Democrats lost 'a crazy contest to an actual crazy person,' continuing to mock the party's recent, but monumental loss.
The talk show host's Friday show also saw him unleash on Trump's controversial cabinet picks as he joked that Matt Gaetz was only nominated for Attorney General because 'Diddy wasn't available.'

He continued to scathe Trump's unorthodox nominees - also including Tulsi Gabbard, RFK Jr. and Pete Hegseth - saying the president-elect 'hit the ground trolling.'
'Two basic qualities you need: absolute loyalty to Trump and a name that makes liberals cry,' he said in his opening monologue. 'So, Trump's dream candidate is a service animal named 'sugar t**s.'
'It's a bit of an unorthodox pick, I think we can agree to that,' he added of Gaetz. 'Usually a president wants someone as attorney general who's familiar with Justice Department investigations, but not as a target of them himself.
