Bill Maher had no problem working an insult against middle America into his opening monologue during the Friday night edition of Real Time. Maher talked about Jussie Smollett and how "he paid two men $3500 to assault him for being black and gay, something he could have gotten for free in Texas." Maher mentioned that he was just kidding, highlighting that "I love Texas." People have plenty of reason to question Maher's supposed love for Texas now that he has smeared the people of the state as racist and homophobic.
