« Real Time » host Bill Maher took a swipe at former First Lady Michelle Obama for her insisting that America isn’t ready for a woman president, comments he said he was « shocked » by.
« To me, this is logical fallacy 101, » Maher said Friday during a panel discussion.
Obama made headlines earlier this month for declaring « we ain’t ready » for a female president following then-Vice President Kamala Harris’ defeat in the 2024 election against President Donald Trump.
« That’s why I’m like, don’t even look at me about running, because you all are lying. You’re not ready for a woman. You are not, » Obama said. « You know, we’ve got a lot of growing up to do, and there’s still, sadly, a lot of men who do not feel like they can be led by a woman, and we saw it. »

The liberal HBO host took exception to that.
« Just because we ‘weren’t ready’ or didn’t like the candidates — Hillary and Kamala — that doesn’t mean we’re not ready for a woman, maybe, » Maher said.

Maher went on to knock her « bad attitude. »
« I mean, we said we’re ready for a Black president and someone — I can’t remember who. Maybe she remembers, » he quipped. « So maybe it just has to be the right one. »
Former DNC chair Donna Brazile agreed with Maher, citing the tens of millions of people who voted for Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris and polling that shows 80% of Americans say they’d support a female president.
« So the idea that America isn’t ready is bulls—, » Brazile said.
