Comedian Bill Maher<\/a> said he could see himself voting Republican during an interview on Sunday \u2014 but said the party would have to be very different.<\/p>\n

During an interview with CNN’s Fareed Zakaria, Maher \u2014 a longtime critic of President Donald Trump<\/a> and supporter of Democrats \u2014 said he could “of course” see himself voting Republican but added, “they would have to certainly lose the idea of ‘we don\u2019t concede elections.'”<\/p>\n

“And my biggest worry is that they feel that the excesses of the left are so great, that they are so anti-common sense. And again, they’re not completely wrong about that \u2014 that they are so \u2014 never met something that was counterintuitive that they didn’t embrace. That they just can\u2019t let these people take power and, therefore, even if there has to \u2014 if democracy has to be sacrificed for hanging on to power,” Maher said. “That’s what I worry about.”<\/p>\n

Maher wondered after Trump serves out his second term, if the GOP would still embrace the idea of not letting the other side take power.<\/p>\n

“Will they still keep that idea that we cannot let these people take power? These people who just do not have any idea of common sense, they want to reinvent everything. They are revolutionaries in a country that is not asking for revolution \u2014 they\u2019re just asking for politicians to fix things. That is my biggest concern,” the comedian said.<\/p>\n

Maher said he hoped for a “return to normalcy” after Trump.<\/p>\n

“My hope is that Trump, who will not concede an election, when he is no longer on the ballot \u2014 but again, we\u2019re not even sure because he has talked about running for a third term<\/a>, which is completely impossible constitutionally, not that that seems to bother him \u2014 maybe we will return to a sense of normalcy. Maybe JD Vance and Marco Rubio will go back to what we used to have, but I\u2019m not sure of it,” he said.<\/p>\n

Maher took aim at both sides of the political aisle during the interview and asked, “Why can’t either one be normal?”<\/p>\n

The comedian said Trump should stop doing the “excesses,” telling CNN that the president was right about the border, DEI and getting NATO to pay more.<\/p>\n

“He\u00a0showed that you can close the\u00a0border,” Maher said. “It wasn’t\u00a0something you needed\u00a0congressional help for. You\u00a0could just do it, and he did it.\u00a0He just did it too far. And\u00a0people don’t like to see people\u00a0tackled at Home Depot<\/a> and people\u00a0they know who have been in this\u00a0country for a long time.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
