Bill Maher Gets Played by JD Vance on ‘Real Time,’ Admits He May Vote Republican in 2028

Vance promoted his new book and became the administration’s public voice as U.S.-Iran clashes escalated, with Maher hosting Sen. Raphael Warnock and Larry Wilmore.

  • On Friday, Vice President JD Vance appeared on Real Time with Bill Maher to promote his book Communion, despite escalating Middle East tensions that nearly caused him to cancel the appearance.
  • Throughout the West, Vance has spent the past week on a promotional tour, including a Thursday visit to the Nixon Presidential Library where he defended the legacy of Nixon.
  • Vance claimed success in ongoing Iranian negotiations, stating the Islamic Republic's nuclear program is "Functionally destroyed" and oil prices are "down to 73 dollars a barrel."
  • Maher pressed the Vice President on past law enforcement operations, to which Vance responded, "You can't do a law enforcement operation like that without having some situations that are recorded like that."
  • The Mark Twain Prize ceremony takes place Sunday at the Trump-controlled Kennedy Center, where Bill Maher will be honored, though the White House has not confirmed if President Trump will attend.
