Maher highlighted that Sammy Davis Jr. faced intense backlash for his political choices, emphasizing that today's intolerance prevents friendships across political lines, which he criticizes.
Maher said, "It's so funny you mention that because today we live in this time where you're not allowed to have friends from the other side or cross lines politically..."
He argued that the left's intolerance today leads to absurdity, stating, "You know and they're not going to get me over to the Trump side... just the idea of cut your family off for Thanksgiving..."
Maher contrasted Davis's embrace of diverse political friendships with modern celebrity virtue signaling, criticizing a current culture of cancelation invoked by political differences.
