If you thought the tone from the Left couldn’t get more shrill than a former intelligence officer and CNN analyst warning Donald Trump that the FBI was going to kill him, think again. During his monologue on Friday, HBO’s Bill Maher declared that all Republicans are “treasonous rats.”
“Forget Groundhog Day, the only large, ratlike creature I’m concerned about is Devin Nunes. This guy — his memo got released today. Of course, it’s not fair to single him out, all the Republicans these days are treasonous rats,” he said, adding:
Republicans, they did not like what the FBI was finding out about Trump. So, like the true patriots they are, of Russia, they attacked the FBI and the Justice Department because they’re biased. Yes, because they’re in law enforcement, and the Trump crime family commits crimes. So, that’s what they are supposed to do. It’s like saying the exterminator is biased against the termites.
Republicans talk about this memo like it’s some smoking gun piece of evidence that they uncovered. No, they wrote it! It’s not an intelligence document. It’s a Facebook post that you briefly skim before clicking unfriend.
Here’s video of his statement, if you can stomach it:
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
Mahler is not the only public figure to engage in this kind of over-the-top rhetoric. As The Daily Caller notes:
Donny Deutsch appeared on MSNBC Friday to say that people needed to start taking to the streets against Donald Trump, who he labelled a “dictator.”
MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace, meanwhile, said, “Let me paint a bleaker picture – it was posited to me from a former national security official, that he next Waco, the next time that federal law enforcement agencies are killed in the line of duty – that’s on Trump.”
Deutsch also called for a revolution, no doubt hoping for an overthrow of the government.
Again, here’s the video:

If enough to make one think that liberals really do want a second, bloody civil war over the president.
