On Friday's Real Time with Bill Maher, liberal comedienne Chelsea Handler joined with host Maher to promote the use of alcohol and illicit drugs as the two excoriated those who abstain as being "untrustworthy" and "f***ing tricky."

Maher, who is known for openly discussing his use of marijuana and advocates its legalization, brought up Donald Trump's refusal to drink alcohol as a strike against the GOP presidential candidate, as he brought aboard Handler and soon posed: "One thing we did on this show for a while was trying to show red flags about Donald Trump, and I love one of yours that I did not think of, which is that he doesn't drink. And you say this is a red flag."

After asking the other panel members if they all drink alcohol -- and finding that they all do -- Handler expounded:

Yeah, I find that very suspect. I don't like when people don't like to broaden their horizons. I mean, you don't have to abuse alcohol in the way that I do, but I would appreciate people experimenting with drugs, hallucinogens, alcohol, loosen up a bit. Otherwise, there's a control factor that I don't trust, and that's what creates a despot or somebody like a Donald Trump. You know. And it's untrustworthy.

As Handler advocated alcohol and drug use, Maher several times injected, "Right," and, regarding alcohol use, asserted that "It is suspect" for people to abstain. He then added: "No, I couldn't agree more. I never trust people who can't get high."

After the two made the exception that they would be accepting of someone who has had a history of an alcohol or drug abuse problem choosing to abstain, she pivoted back to attacking those who refuse to try alcohol or drugs in the first place: "But if you've never tried it, yeah, you're f***king tricky."

The two then recounted Handler's experience of trying the drug Ayahuasca, as she credited it with helping her improve her relationship with her sister, and touted allegedly positive effects on their lives others have reported experiencing.

Maher then brought up the advocacy of illicit drug use by the rock group, The Doors, before ironically admitting that group member Jim Morrison died of drug use:

MAHER: Let's not go into the fact that Jim Morrison died on drugs, but -- that takes away- HANDLER: Yeah, let's not bring it down. Let's not bring it down. MAHER: -yeah, that takes away from my point.

Coincidentally, it was five years earlier to the day that Maher infamously advocated putting drugs in Halloween candy and touted the alleged benefits of illicit drug use.
