[PJ] In a recent episode of his "Club Random" podcast, leftist comedian Bill Maher had film director Oliver Stone on as a guest. During the discussion, Stone essentially argued that the 2020 election could have been stolen.
Here’s how it came up. At one point in the discussion, they were discussing the COVID vaccines and the pandemic, and Stone argued that Biden was being authoritarian with his vaccine mandates.
“That's one form of it,” Maher replied. "I would say the form that Trump is threatening us with is even worse."
“Which is what?” Stone asked.
"Well, I mean, he doesn’t concede elections, you know, the elections only count if we win theory of government. Come on, you know, Trump has he still has not conceded the election. He has not conceded. He does not honor that,” Maher explained.
Now, it’s convenient that Maher didn’t acknowledge that Hillary Clinton still claims, falsely, that the 2016 election was stolen from her, but I digress. Stone’s reply to Maher took the conversation to a whole new level.
"I mean, do you know for a fact that he lost?” Stone asked. "I'm just curious."
Maher was clearly flabbergasted. Stone was being genuine with his question, and conceded not knowing all the facts, but Maher was quick to dismiss Stone.
“Is there a conspiracy theory you don't believe?” Maher asked him.
