On Friday's Real Time, host Bill Maher closed his satirical segment “New Rules” by urging First Lady Melania Trump to dump the President, arguing that her doing so would enable President Trump to “implode on his own.” Maher also encouraged Rupert Murdoch’s wife, Jerry Hall, to do the same before describing Fox News as an “axis of evil” and comparing the Trump base to “an army of brain-dead zombies.”

Maher unveiled his final take to his enthusiastic audience: “Melania Trump must do what dozens of buildings around the world have done and take the Trump name off.” After lamenting the fact that “a dozen Republican candidates,” Hillary Clinton, and Robert Mueller failed to stop him, Maher held up the First Lady as the last best hope.

He cited women’s “power of ultimatum” as the rationale for his argument because women have gotten men to “change their destructive ways by threatening to leave them, humiliate them, or cut them off in bed.”

Maher pleaded with the First Lady to take his advice: “Melania, the world needs you. President Hellboy has proven to be impervious to facts, reason, shame, and the law, but maybe if you left him for another man, especially if that man was Mexican...you can end this reign of terror.” Speaking directly into the camera as if to address her directly, he said: “You know you wanna. Your unhappiness is obvious. You despise his little monkey fingers touching your hands. So kick him to the curb.”

Suggesting that “divorces are always easier in pairs,” Maher surmised that Melania would be more likely to take his advice if she “had a buddy, so” he mentioned “another former model who’s also married to a super-rich Republican monster: Mrs. Rupert Murdoch, Jerry Hall,” because both men “are ruining the world.”

Maher trashed Murdoch as “the man who made Brexit happen” and “got Trump elected and keeps his base ignorant.” He also noted that Hall left Mick Jagger because “he was f***ing everything that moved” before declaring that “Rupert’s f***ing the whole planet.” Maher then asserted that “the axis of evil in the world now is Trump and Fox News.”

After comparing the duo to the Night King in “Game of Thrones” and comparing the Trump base to “an army of brain-dead zombies,” Maher concluded that both men “can’t handle one thing: an ego lashing,” and suggested that their wives leaving them would lead them to fall apart and therefore western civilization would be saved. It looks like Maher and many others in the liberal media continue to suffer from a bruised ego because they couldn’t handle one thing: the election of President Trump.
