No, Gloria. Hillary Clinton does not represent the majority of women and men in America. This idea that we owe the next presidency to a woman is delusional, especially when we have the privilege to choose Bernie Sanders.
Of course Hillary does not represent the majority because she has all the money and power in the ruling minority. Bernie on the other hand is still deeply rooted and connected to the majority he represents.
+Concert Videos Even if he doesn't, he will try with the bully pulpit power. Though, if Sanders gets a high voter turnout, he can get close to the majority in the House.
+atheistmecca I heard some folks on TYT say that, but I don't think that's his motivation. I think he is truly narcissistic enough to not give a fuck about details and still expect the Presidency. It will probably wind up being lucrative in the long run.
+Chad Tennant Yes because we absolutely have to compare him to another black figure in the media right? Skip Bayless is way worse than Stephen A. Smith, although they're both D-bags....
The black dude radiates dishonesty and manipulativeness and it was really creepy the way he held Wagner's hand for almost a minute. Is he someone to do with neurosurgical friend of Jesus?
+이런저런 I might have taken what you say seriously if Asians weren't historically racist towards blacks. Besides the man never actually said anything inflammatory during the show even said some nice things about Bernie sanders.
+이런저런 Maybe you should start calling people by their name instead of the "black dude" just like you called the woman by her name, maybe that says something about you. And you don't know their relationship, if anything they look like they know each other previously. Stop looking into stuff more than it should. FYI hes name is Armstrong. The first part i somewhat agree with you, seems like he can't see nothing wrong with hes favorite politician. But that you can say about a lot of people including us self
***** Socialism is Communism lite, it's like saying i would rather take 50% of poison as opposed to 100% of it. These socialist countries in Europe are doing so great right now.
Hillary shouldn't win JUST because you feel there should be a woman Prez this time. This is not Feminism, but FemiNazism. Give the job to the candidate most deserving.
+utkarsh sankrityayan They're saying exactly that. It'd be amazing to have a women president not only because she's a female, but because she has experience the back her up.
+Concert Videos I agree with what Gloria Steinem said, but what I sorta disagree with is what Wagner says @5:28 that it'd be awesome if the first black president is followed by the first female president. I'm sure it'd be, but that doesn't mean the country should just go gung-ho after Hillary. Right now, she's a close second best, to Bernie Sanders.
Gloria Steinem made a very good point when she said men need to be seen as caring for children and their place as carers and role models for young people needs to be recognised as equally important as women's. Thank you for sticking up for all the great dad's out there who take the challenge and do it supremely well. Women and men are greater than the a sum of their parts when they work together.
+Jasmine I cannot believe that she basically stated that young women supporting Sanders are just chasing boys to get laid. How reductive and patronizing (ironically enough) to disregard the free, educated choice made by large number of women. I would venture so far as to call it infantilizing. Lost a lot of respect for Gloria with that comment.
+Thanatos considering what he inherited and where he should be by now. He is not a good business man. People who know the caliber of his family's business can clearly see he's been messing up.
Wesly Stanton If that over-hyped *BUFFOON* Trump hadn't inherit all his daddy's money and instead had to make his own way in life like almost everyone else, then he would be lucky to be a used car salesman these days, and everyone knows it. He's a mediocre intellect, a bigot of low character. He appeals to the very *worst* in people. Americans should cringe at the very thought of this arrogant, pig ignorant, self righteous bully being the best they can come up with to represent their country.
The Carson needing clean clothes bit @ 2:50 was funny especially with Bill cracking up at the laundry day joke & also the changing diapers bad for men's health @ 8:51.
The part where they get all enthusiastic about a woman becoming president because 80 other countries have already done it is the kind of content that makes me wonder if I should really not vote for the GOP.
+Karl Saleh Oh yeah, you should. The tunnel vision of this country is stunning. You're being manipulated on a grand scale, and you'll never even know it.
Sorry, Bill, but the United States was most certainly not the last country to abolish slavery. Saudi Arabia didn't abolish it until 1962. The US wasn't even the last country to abolish racial slavery; Brazil didn't abolish slavery outright until 1888!
How can Bill be so critical of multiculturalism and the PC police and still kiss Gloria's ass? That interview in the first part of the show was VERY disapointing...
I don't understand your argument. And I have the impression you don't watch RT very often, do you? I say this because Bill is a champion against PC bullshit. He's constantly calling self-righteous multiculturalists on their bs and pointing to their authoritarian positions. Then Gloria fucking Steinem goes to his show and he seems smittened. I don't get it.
+neosoontoretro Well, as I said, I don't quite get your argument. When you referred to people whining about 'toxic masculinity', it seemed as if you didn't know who Bill was. He wasn't whining. He was (too shyly, in my view) opposing another silly feminst trope. He should have been WAY more critical of Gloria throughout the show. She's one the biggest regressive leftists out there.
ffsf739 I was talking about the whining from Bill's audience in the comment section. But for the record Bill did show that he had a problem with Gloria " testosterone poisoning" comment. Which I think he may have misunderstood as Gloria was talking an excess of testosterone.
Please never welcome Armstrong Williams back. What a wasted spot on the panel. This season has seen a couple of lack luster panels, but this one could have really shined. C'mon, Bill!
"It would be nice to have women in the Constitution." Well said Gloria! I love Gloria Steinem. She never flinches in the face of the misogyny that comes her way because she champions the rights of women. She reminds me of Nellie McClung, the great Canadian suffragist who fought tirelessly to get Canadian women the vote. McClung had this advice for women fighting for women's rights: she said, "Never retract. Never Explain. Never Apologize. Get the thing done and let them howl."
Who is this nobody talking about how Donald Trump isn't a successful businessman? The guy is a multi billionaire who graduated at the top of his class in the top business school in the world.
+The Moral Crusader Trump's Wharton admissions officer was an old classmate of Trump’s older brother. He also did not graduate with A SINGLE HONOR, zip, nada.
I like how this whole episode was basically, "Yeah, we have to begrudgingly accept the fact that Bernie Sanders is a real contender." I also like how Bill calls out everyone who's been saying "We like him, but he just can't win," as if he isn't one of those people! Holy shit, so phony.
Are you kidding? Hiallry is pragmatic? For whom? May be for the Wall Street... No she is the idealist for the Wall Street, not at all pragmatic for anybody... Bernie is more pragmatic, for the people, for the government, for the Business.... He is the real pragmatic. That's called Authenticity, unlike fake Hiallary
I think Gloria is missing the boat with why Trump is so popular. It's not because he's a successful businessman it's because he says what a lot of frustrated folks are thinking. It's a matter of P.C. going too far and Trump is the reaction to it. Clown yes, but I'd take Trump over Hillary right now if Sanders doesn't make it.
The P.C. issue isn't why for me personally. I don't want another Clinton or Bush in office. Trump's victory speech looked like some kind of late night infomercials where the guy pumps his book on how successful he is, but the big message in voting for a Trump is the rejection of Super PAC money for me.
+neosoontoretro Really, there is a pretty compelling case for why Sanders supporters could support Trump if Bernie loses the nomination. A) Hillary is a hyper warmonger. Trump/Sanders aren't. B) Hillary is in league with the political establishment. Trump/Sanders aren't. C) Hillary has proven to be ineffective with executive power (she was a terrible secretary of state). Neither Trump/Sanders have shown such incompetence. There's more, but this list would go on forever.
Love both the girls... but Gloria... we want smart social and political commentary based of facts... not the ramblings of someone that likes their own voice... notice how she derails the show, talks over Bill, can not accept different points of view. Clam up lady
Nice to hear from two women who have overcome adversity in their lives to become successful. I went back to read about Gloria Steinem as I had not really delved into her history. (It is always better to look at someones story than make judgement on what you perceive from TV and Internet talks.) Very interesting lifetime and worth the time to delve into her 81 years. And Erin Brocovich continues to be an American Icon. Thanks Bill for havnig them on your show.
The reason that it's fair game to criticize Shillary for voting for Iraq is because she is facing a candidate who was a congressman at the time who voted against it. If it is true that Obama defended her saying that he wasn't sure how he would have voted had he gotten the same information and been in government at the time, that's not a defense of Shillary, it's a criticism of Obama. Bernie knew it was wrong at the time, Shillary did not, end of story, she lacked critical thinking skills which led to one of the worst foreign policy mistakes in our nation's history. She was a powerful, influential political figure at the time, whose opinion mattered to a large chunk of the American people, her vote could have created less over all support for the war and probably not have stopped the Republicunts from doing it, but probably could have ended the war earlier. If we really need a female president, which we don't, we need a qualified president, gender is irrelevant, we should at least have a good candidate, like Elizabeth Warren. I really hope she runs next time around.
Sorry Bill. As much as it would be great to have a woman President, the fact that the United States is the only industrialized country in the world to not provide health care to its citizenry as a basic human right is a far bigger embarrassment!!
I love how in the interview Gloria dismissed the majority of young women in America who want to vote for Bernie Sanders as girls who don't know anything, and just aren't motivated enough about feminism. It seems like a feminist would want to respect the choice of such a large group of women.
Alex Wagner and Hillary Clinton seriously need to get a room. It's so hilarious that earlier in the show, Alex denied that she was a Hillary supporter.
"I really don't think that we will be able to recognize human talent in all of its forms until men are raising children as much as women are and women are in the public world as much as men are" -Steinem around 7:20. Indeed. Equality of outcome instead of opportunity! I really wish the patriarchy would stop forcing women to get all those Gender Studies degrees. I mean, I never see women anywhere outside of the kitchen! I also wish the Patriarchy would stop forcing wives to keep divorcing their husbands for the kids and alimony. I dream of the day we finally recognize human talent in all its forms, when the Holy Woman rises tall from my pedestal, and raises her cup over my weeping castrated fetal worthless body! Amen!
"Trump is not a successful businessman" This is the childhood of Gloria Steinem........ From Wiki ....The Steinems lived and traveled about in the trailer from which Leo carried out his trade as a traveling antiques dealer.[16] Before Steinem was born, her mother Ruth, then aged 34, had a "nervous breakdown" that left her an invalid, trapped in delusional fantasies that occasionally turned violent.[17] She changed "from an energetic, fun-loving, book-loving" woman into "someone who was afraid to be alone, who could not hang on to reality long enough to hold a job, and who could rarely concentrate enough to read a book."[17] Ruth spent long periods in and out of sanatoriums for the mentally ill.[17] Steinem was ten years old when her parents finally separated in 1944.[17] Her father went to California to find work, while she and her mother continued to live together in Toledo.....
That older woman, I really hated her rant on how we perceive woman's judgement to be more childish because we are raised by women. What kind of relationship is she talking about? Even if that first part was true, why do we only hear a man's judgement when we get older? Does the mother just shut up once the child goes into middle school? I know fully grown men who still ask their mothers for advice.
Bill Maher asked what the term "Let's go back" means. The book "Why the Right Went Wrong" by E.J. Dionne Jr. explained to me what that is about. It is a nostalgia for the world of the 1950"s or even the 1890"s.
"Donald Trump is not a successful businessman. He is a successful con man." -Steinem... "Why?" -asks Armstrong Williams.. "Because if he had just invested his inheritance instead of building a business, he would have more money now."Okay, how does that mean he is a con man? And she really got applause for this.....
Voting for a woman for the sake of having a female leader is not only an unhealthy way to look at things and dare I say sexist, but it also sets a very dangerous precedent. If we're looking at a person for their genetics, then what the hell is even the point? I'm looking for a proper, competent leader, not mere representation. I couldn't care less WHO the person is or WHAT they believe so long as they can get the job done and have the best interests of our nation at heart, which Hillary absolutely doesn't. Leave ideology out of the White House
Bernie is more of a feminist than Hillary Wall-Street Pro-War Clinton. I'm a woman and a feminist & would vote for Bernie in a heartbeat (if I were American). Hillary is not a friend to anyone except big interest groups. She would actually put women getting elected president back centuries, just like Thatcher did. Disappointed in Steinem and Wagner for supporting Hillary, especially when neither could come up with anything relevant Hillary has done for women since her 'first lady' days.
i hope bill isn't including canada in thoose 80 countries because kim campbell wasn't elected, she took the reigns when mullrooney was forced to quit..
Armstrong Williams! haha I recognize him! He was on that show laughing at the guy who called in and was singing out of tune over the phone. I knew he looked familiar!
0:14 Erin was nervous and didn't know how to respond..."it's a pleasure to meet you, you been awesome, for all of us for....thank you" and never finished the sentence correctly or to make sense lol!
No, Gloria. Hillary Clinton does not represent the majority of women and men in America. This idea that we owe the next presidency to a woman is delusional, especially when we have the privilege to choose Bernie Sanders.
+Karly Noel Bernie Sanders just won't be able to deliver half the things he says, and the other half won't be to the degree he's promoting.
Of course Hillary does not represent the majority because she has all the money and power in the ruling minority. Bernie on the other hand is still deeply rooted and connected to the majority he represents.
+Karly Noel exactly
+Concert Videos Even if he doesn't, he will try with the bully pulpit power. Though, if Sanders gets a high voter turnout, he can get close to the majority in the House.
+Concert Videos This just in: Politicians make promises they can't fully deliver on.
This Carson defender is WAY out of his league.
+Jake Thomason So is Carson himself.
+bones27 He sure is but he'll probably get a book deal or something after.. All of these republicans are just in it for personal gain in my opinion.

+Chad Tennant
Yes because we absolutely have to compare him to another black figure in the media right? Skip Bayless is way worse than Stephen A. Smith, although they're both D-bags....
"It's a beautiful moment, let's ruin it."--Maher. That's too adorable.
When you've just smoked 8 joints together nothing is politically incorrect.

Sorry Bill. As much as it would be great to have a woman President, the fact that the United States is the only industrialized country in the world to not provide health care to its citizenry as a basic human right is a far bigger embarrassment!!
Voting for a candidate because of their sex is the same as choosing them by color. The candidate should be a person who stands for what you believe.
I find it absurd that people circle the ideas of being a woman or being black.
I love how in the interview Gloria dismissed the majority of young women in America who want to vote for Bernie Sanders as girls who don't know anything, and just aren't motivated enough about feminism. It seems like a feminist would want to respect the choice of such a large group of women.

Watching gloria talk was cringeworthy to say the least

Gloria Steinem is spot on in her comments about Trump
"I really don't think that we will be able to recognize human talent in all of its forms until men are raising children as much as women are and women are in the public world as much as men are" -Steinem around 7:20.

"start making out you two" lol
The person Ben Carson most needed to fire was HIMSELF. And that lackey defending him is an embarrasment.
"Trump is not a successful businessman"
This is the childhood of Gloria Steinem........
From Wiki
....The Steinems lived and traveled about in the trailer from which Leo carried out his trade as a traveling antiques dealer.[16] Before Steinem was born, her mother Ruth, then aged 34, had a "nervous breakdown" that left her an invalid, trapped in delusional fantasies that occasionally turned violent.[17] She changed "from an energetic, fun-loving, book-loving" woman into "someone who was afraid to be alone, who could not hang on to reality long enough to hold a job, and who could rarely concentrate enough to read a book."[17] Ruth spent long periods in and out of sanatoriums for the mentally ill.[17] Steinem was ten years old when her parents finally separated in 1944.[17] Her father went to California to find work, while she and her mother continued to live together in Toledo.....
Armstrong Williams was painful here. No ability to read the room, and no ability to back up his reactions to things.
Politics and issues aside, for an 81-year-old woman, Gloria Steinem looks great and is amazingly together mentally.
"Look at all the studies" - Are you fucking kidding me?!
That older woman, I really hated her rant on how we perceive woman's judgement to be more childish because we are raised by women.
What kind of relationship is she talking about? Even if that first part was true, why do we only hear a man's judgement when we get older? Does the mother just shut up once the child goes into middle school? I know fully grown men who still ask their mothers for advice.
Bill Maher asked what the term "Let's go back" means. The book "Why the Right Went Wrong" by E.J. Dionne Jr. explained to me what that is about. It is a nostalgia for the world of the 1950"s or even the 1890"s.
What a line to Gloria S. and Erin B!!
"Donald Trump is not a successful businessman. He is a successful con man." -Steinem... "Why?" -asks Armstrong Williams.. "Because if he had just invested his inheritance instead of building a business, he would have more money now."Okay, how does that mean he is a con man? And she really got applause for this.....
Seeing them talking about Hillary winning now that trump is president is actually funny
Voting for a woman for the sake of having a female leader is not only an unhealthy way to look at things and dare I say sexist, but it also sets a very dangerous precedent. If we're looking at a person for their genetics, then what the hell is even the point? I'm looking for a proper, competent leader, not mere representation. I couldn't care less WHO the person is or WHAT they believe so long as they can get the job done and have the best interests of our nation at heart, which Hillary absolutely doesn't. Leave ideology out of the White House
Armstrong Williams picture should be in the dictionary next to the word, Uncle Tom.
Bernie is more of a feminist than Hillary Wall-Street Pro-War Clinton.
I'm a woman and a feminist & would vote for Bernie in a heartbeat (if I were American). Hillary is not a friend to anyone except big interest groups. She would actually put women getting elected president back centuries, just like Thatcher did.
Disappointed in Steinem and Wagner for supporting Hillary, especially when neither could come up with anything relevant Hillary has done for women since her 'first lady' days.
Sorry, I''m feelin the Bern. Wish we could have had Elizabeth Warren to vote for to prove it's the message, not the gender of the messenger.
Ivanka Trump 2028! That's after a second term of the Donald and a short 4-year term of a Democrat. I have nothing against a female president.
Gloria is very high and mighty and so condescending.
"she certainly looks good this year"- really?! how is that even a thing? Golda Meir was the prime minster not a model
I really hate it when people talk about Donald Trump's hair... like yeah it's ugly, but the joke is really getting old now :/
I would like to see more discussion about Bernie & his record.
i hope bill isn't including canada in thoose 80 countries because kim campbell wasn't elected, she took the reigns when mullrooney was forced to quit..
"we will forget trump ever ran for president..." wow really? i doubt that in 2018 looking back holy fuck!
Armstrong Williams is an alien in disguise who just gave up his cover.
@0:20 we all we thinking it...bill said it lol
I knew Alex Wagner was a Hilary supporter before she even spoke, because she still has a job at MSNBC.
Thank u Gloria
Armstrong Williams! haha I recognize him! He was on that show laughing at the guy who called in and was singing out of tune over the phone. I knew he looked familiar!
For every study that says A, there are 4 studies that say B, C, and D.
And that's why other countires don't take you seriously, you discuss candidate's gender instead of policy.
I love Gloria so much
0:14 Erin was nervous and didn't know how to respond..."it's a pleasure to meet you, you been awesome, for all of us for....thank you" and never finished the sentence correctly or to make sense lol!
The only person who needs to be fired in the Ben Carson campaign, is Ben. I can't believe this guy is trying to stick up for him.
I wish there was someone like Ben Shapiro on the panel to call them out on their bullshit.
When I read the sexist comments from hateful men on this video,
it makes me want to leave Sanders and go to Hillary.
Steinem is really 50 years in the past. I'm not sure she can recognize the changes in how people think today.
