On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher argued that the United States is going to be like Iraq under Saddam Hussein where a minority holds all the power “because of the axis of evil of Donald Trump, Rupert Murdoch, and Charles Koch.”

Maher said, “[T]he people who need the Constitution changed are the liberals. It’s — we’re the ones it’s not working for.”

He added, “The Supreme Court should be 7-2 liberal. Because four of the justices were appointed by — two by Bush and now two by Trump, two presidents who lost the popular vote. That’s what I mean. The Electoral College works for them.”

Later, after citing a study by the Weldon Cooper Center that by 2040, eight states will have almost half the US population and 16 states will have almost 70% of the population, Maher stated, “30% of the population will control 68% of the Senate seats, of course, because California with 40 million people gets two senators, and so does Wyoming with 8 people. So, it looks like we’re becoming this country where I feel like it’s Iraq under Saddam, and the liberals — go with me, right? Because the Sunnis were the minority, but they ran the country, right? They were a third of the country, but they were in power. And two-thirds of the country was the Shiites and they had no power, and we’re going to be two-thirds of the country, the liberals, but we’re not going to have any power, because of the axis of evil of Donald Trump, Rupert Murdoch, and Charles Koch.”
