Bill Maher says his 2028 vote is “in play,” warning that Democrats are moving toward “communism” and saying he is considering voting Republican for president. (Screenshot: ABC News/Youtube)Leftist comedian and HBO host Bill Maher just delivered a massive warning shot to the Democrat Party.Appearing on ABC’s This Week on Sunday, Maher flatly admitted his presidential vote in 2028 is “in play” and that he could vote for Vice President JD Vance if Democrats continue their hard lurch into actual communism.During a conversation with Jonathan Karl, Maher admitted that the modern Democratic Party has aligned itself so closely with the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) that he can no longer ignore the writing on the wall.Jonathan Karl: You told J.D. Vance you’re open, your vote is up for grabs.Bill Maher: Yes, my vote is in play because it can’t be Trump running. So I’m not living in communist America. I mean, I know that the talking point is that it’s not communism, it’s socialism.Okay, I’ve read the quotes from the DSA platform, from their own mouths. Don’t tell me I’m not seeing what I am seeing. And DSA, again, they, they say things like, you know, takeover of key industries, government. That’s communism. You know, there is a definition.Jonathan Karl: By the way, Trump’s doing that, too.Bill Maher: Of course. Yes.Jonathan Karl: And to a degree that we haven’t seen any other president. No, not a Republican.Bill Maher: That’s crazy, too.Jonathan Karl: He’s got a piece of Intel, right? A piece of the AI companies.Bill Maher: He treats everything like it’s a real estate deal or, or I don’t know, he’s an agent or something. He always wants 10 or 15 percent.Jonathan Karl: So you want to see Democrats win in the midterms?Bill Maher: Absolutely. And they will, because it will still be a referendum on Trump. So I think the Democrats will do very well in the midterms. 2028 is a different story because by then this wing of the party, this new wing with all the energy— and it’s not just a few people anymore. I read every day, I read about a new person in some Colorado and Wisconsin, somebody who is saying some variation of not defund the police, abolish the police. No prisons, no police. Like, what world do they think we could possibly live in under these conditions? It’s just a level of nutty that I’m so glad that whenever it was, I was like, no, I’m not going along because this is where it ends.Jonathan Karl: Could you see yourself voting for J.D. Vance?Bill Maher: Yes. If this is the, the Democratic side, yes.Jonathan Karl: Now, you, you have interviewed several of the possible Democratic candidates for 2028. How do you assess? Who do you like?Bill Maher: Oh, I’m not going to ruin future guests by telling you that, John. How ridiculous. They’re all great.

The lifelong liberal told the Vice President straight up that if the Democrats continue down the path of Democratic Socialists, anti-capitalism, Jew-hatred, and “no prisons,” his vote is in play.As The Gateway Pundit reported, co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), Gustavo Gordillo, went on national television and openly defended the DSA’s radical platform while demonstrating a shocking ignorance of basic American government.He called the United States Senate an “undemocratic institution” because it gives equal representation to smaller states and large ones, revealing he does not even understand the fundamental difference between the Senate and the House of Representatives.The DSA’s official “Workers Deserve More” platform, which The Gateway Pundit has extensively documented, calls for:Eliminate the U.S. Senate.Replace the President with an executive chosen by Congress.Replace the Supreme Court with a judiciary subordinate to Congress.Grant universal amnesty to all illegal aliens.Defund the Department of Defense (which the platform refers to as the “Department of War”).Close overseas U.S. military bases.End American economic sanctions against foreign adversaries.Abolish what it calls the “carceral forces of the capitalist state,” including sweeping police and prison reforms.If implemented, these proposals would fundamentally transform the American system of government by eliminating the constitutional separation of powers established by the Founding Fathers.The DSA has become increasingly influential inside Democrat politics, with many of its members and allies winning elected office at the local, state, and federal levels.The post Leftist Comedian Bill Maher Says Vote Is ‘In Play’ In 2028 and He Is Open to Voting for J.D.
