In a recent podcast episode of "Club Random", Bill Maher and Matt Gaetz discussed the contentious aftermath of the 2020 election and the attempts by Republicans to overturn its results. Maher emphasized the difference between Democrats' views of Trump as an illegitimate president and the Republican-led January 6th Capitol riot. The dialogue escalated when Gaetz attempted to challenge Maher's remarks about Republican hypocrisy regarding elections. Overall, the exchange showcased deep divisions over political legitimacy and accountability.
GAETZ: If you're talking about the use of force to achieve your political goals, I think I think it's somewhat on topic.
MAHER: And it's not like the left doesn't do a version. I mean, they should not have been bitching about Trump is not a legitimate president.
MAHER: That's not would have happened if you guys had lost. And you know that that is asymmetry you have to address.
GAETZ: Well, look, it was 1988. It was 1988. The last time they didn't object to a vote.
