        Very disappointing; especially considering that Franken is a former comedian.

        So wrong on so levels. Franken is a comic, Maher was joking. Why is it OK for DT to to say whatever?

        Because DT has no moral compass, and we can't let him derail all that is respectable and decent.

        I like Maher but this was even worse than a slur. He compared himself to a black slave in the worst way possible.

        Absolute nonsense! Maher said nothing racist! He disparaged no one! He referred to himself! He did not redefine another person's humanity!

        Good to hear. There's that double standard again...Kathy Griffin gets fired but Bill Maher will continue with his "mouthy statements".

        Maher apologized. Has no history of racism. This is overreaction by Franken.

        It is irresponsible to toss that charge around so carelessly. To do so undermines the power of the word.

        Not careless. He has a history using racism for ratings. Latinx, Black, Arab, Asian.. he's used us all. This is on video and he gets no pass

        you forgot Whites and Native Americans. He is caustic but usually on the mark. Can be irritating. But causes us to think. Not racist.
