I remember his movie religulous. At the end of the movie he goes to some super small church in the middle of nowhere and asks them super deep theological questions, then mocks them when they don't have an immediate answer. Thats when I first noticed what a smug prick he was.
And now I'm faced with the dilemma of who I dislike more. Someone like Manchin or someone like Maher.
I think the latter, with how obnoxiously arrogant they are, and defending MAGA as "economic anxiety". Different types of conservative, but conservative none the less.
