Comedian Bill Maher<\/a> took aim at what he portrayed as the Democratic Party\u2019s double standard on religion Friday, quipping that a candidate\u2019s public faith is welcome “as long as that faith isn\u2019t Jewish.”<\/p>\n

The segment came as CNN anchor Dana Bash discussed Texas Democrat James Talarico\u2019s outspoken Christianity during a segment on “Real Time,” saying he “wears his faith on his sleeve” in a way Talarico believes could help him.<\/p>\n

“Well, in the Democratic Party, as long as that faith isn\u2019t Jewish, you\u2019re good,” Maher retorted.<\/p>\n

“Well, you said it.” Bash replied.<\/p>\n

Maher then interjected: “Yeah, I said it because it’s true!”<\/p>\n

The left-wing comedian’s jab comes as Pew Research Center<\/a> polling suggests a substantial percentage of shows 80% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents (80%) hold an unfavorable view of Israel, up sharply from 53% in 2022.<\/p>\n

At the same time, 41% of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents surveyed hold a negative view of the Jewish state. 58% of those right-leaning voters have a positive view.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Democratic Party has also put forth a series of candidates, personalities and elected officials who espouse anti-Israel beliefs, including Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed<\/a> and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani<\/a>. Far-left Twitch streamer Hasan Piker has repeatedly attacked Israel<\/a>.<\/p>\n

When reached for comment on Saturday, Sam Markstein, Republican Jewish Coalition national political director and spokesman, agreed with Maher and spoke of the GOP as the only party still willing to accommodate Jewish people who are proud of their identity and support of Israel.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s a rare occasion when we agree with Bill Maher, but he\u2019s right: there is only one party where American Jews can be proudly Jewish and loudly pro-Israel, and it\u2019s the Republican Party,” he told Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

“Democrats prove it again and again: from Kamala Harris<\/a> passing over Josh Shapiro in 2024 to the rise of communist elected officials who traffic in antisemitism in halls of power across the country,” he continued.<\/p>\n

Markstein concluded by saying, “The Democratic Party is being remade by its radicalized base, and party leadership continues to fecklessly whistle past the political graveyard as American Jews flee.”<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital reached out to the Democratic National Committee for comment, but did not immediately hear back.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
