“Real Time” host Bill Maher took aim at President Biden’s latest student loan benefit proposal, claiming it would end up using his tax dollars to fund “Jew haters” on college campuses.
During a panel discussion Friday night, discussing the anti-Israel riots that have erupted at top universities in recent weeks, Maher said he was “very concerned” about how many of the students participating received federal aid. I’m outraged,” he said.
“When you read about college loans…’The Biden administration’s student loan forgiveness will cost a total of $870 billion to $1.4 trillion. That’s a lot of debt forgiveness,'” Maher said.
Maher added, “Universities raise tuition all the time, kids take out more loans, and then the government comes in and pays for those loans. So my tax dollars are supporting this Jew-hater. I don’t think so,” he continued.

FOX News contributor Kellyanne Conway said student loan benefits are unfair, telling Maher, “You can’t hire a plumber or plumber to pay for your doctor’s or lawyer’s student loans.”
“I’m all for governments trying to help people in need, but he did it as a political game and we all know that. ” Conway added.

“And it’s not working,” interjected Bloomberg Businessweek correspondent Joshua Green. “If you look at the issues that young people care about, Gaza ranks 15th out of 16. The only thing that ranks below Gaza is student debt.”In other words, it doesn’t act as an incentive for young people to vote. It is. Half the young people are screaming “Massacre Joe”. So it’s backfired not only in terms of public policy but also in terms of politics. ”

“Yeah, I mean, Trump is winning the youth vote by probably 11 points, which is pretty surprising to me,” Maher said, referring to a recent CNN poll. “What do you think about that?”
Greene responded by highlighting dramas plaguing Republicans, such as President Trump’s New York trial, and South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem’s upcoming book about killing her 14-month-old dog several years ago. He claimed that he was being overshadowed by news of anti-Israel riots, including the controversy over his admission. .

“I mean, if you turn on the TV today, you’re going to see young people protesting, angry, fighting with police,” Green said. “What you don’t see is Donald Trump in a criminal trial. What you don’t see is, you know, one of his good vice presidential candidates killed a dog a week ago and talked about it. I mean, it’s been two weeks since we started talking about all these potentially damaging articles for Republicans to support Joe Biden, and all the attention is on these protesters. These fights, their actions, and the fact that a lot of people don’t like what they see on TV are forgotten.
“Biden was elected to displace the chaos and chaos of the Trump era. I think we can all agree on this…If you turn on the TV and look at what’s going on on campus, you won’t see that. It’s not happening. That’s one of the big reasons he’s losing votes and that’s one of the big reasons he’s losing the youth vote.”

“Yes, the chaos and crisis of the Trump administration is chaos and crisis everywhere you look now, whether it’s in the tweets or in the comments here and there!” Conway exclaimed. “At the border, on our college campuses, by the way, on Capitol Hill, 31 Democratic members of Congress voted against a resolution condemning Hezbollah and Hamas last October 18.”
She continued. “And the resolution clearly stated that we are concerned about institutions of higher education that allow sympathies for Hezbollah and Hamas, which our own government, the Biden administration, the Trump administration have labeled terrorist groups. “This anti-Semitism will hurt and offend Jewish students.” That was on October 18th! For example, all 31 Democrats, including some of the most prominent youth, such as the No Torts Unit, voted against the resolution. . ”
“I couldn’t agree more,” Maher replied.
