Bill Maher just went there. HBO’s Real Time host spoke at the the DAR Constitution Hall in Washington, D.C on Saturday, and made a joke that seemed to hint somebody should assassinate Donald Trump.

“I’m nervous with this election,” he said in audio recorded at the event. “I saw the headline today: ‘Race tightening, Trump ahead in Ohio and Florida.’ If this race is even the week before the election, somebody is going to have to go out there …” Maher pauses and a woman in the crowd can be heard warning, “Don’t say it…” Then Maher delivers the punchline: “Why do you think they let Hinckley out?” The joke was met by plenty of laughter and applause.

John Hinkley Jr. was released from a mental hospital Saturday after years of incarceration for attempting to assassinate President Ronald Reagan in 1981.
