Bill Maher Threatens to Quit HBO Show After Trump Win

Comedian Bill Maher has said he might quit his HBO show after President-elect Donald Trump’s election win, citing a lack of willingness to continue criticizing the president. Maher, who has been a frequent target of Trump’s over the years, told an interview with Jane Fonda that he may walk away from “Real Time with Bill Maher” if it continues to focus on Trump-related topics. The show, which debuted in 2003, features Maher’s witty discussion of politics with a panel of guests, including himself. HBO has renewed the series for two more seasons through 2026 despite Maher’s potential departure.
