Bill Maher Slams Mamdani And Endorses Cuomo But Admits 'Maybe He Was A Little Too Handsy'
The "Real Time" host also said Zohran Mamdani was born in a country "where they kill homosexuals" and brought up the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
By Marco Margaritoff

“Real Time” host Bill Maher on Friday endorsed disgraced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo in New York City’s mayoral race and excused his past sexual misconduct allegations, while slamming progressive opponent Zohran Mamdani as a danger for the Democratic Party.

“I think he seems like a sweet guy, Mamdani,” Maher said to laughter from the crowd. “But I would just like to say, because the election is in a couple of weeks, this is not just New York that’s on the ballot. I think the whole Democratic Party in the country is on the ballot”.
