And thanks for posting the Overtime segment. I especially liked Christie's response, after being asked this by Freeland...

Freeland: So, I want to know, what do Republicans say to each other when we're not listening about what's happening in America right now?

Christie: Look, so many of my fellow party members, especially come up to me, because I say all this stuff out loud and they say, in the green room at ABC, you're so brave. That's so great. I totally agree with you. He's nuts.

And then they go out on camera to be interviewed. The greatest president since Abraham Lincoln, you know, and then they come back in the green room and they say to me, you know, I have to do that, but like I don't really mean it. That's what they say.

Maher: Like who, specifically?

Christie: All right, Bill. Overtime's not long enough to give you all the names, but I'll give you one. Lindsey Graham. Which by the way, was what he was saying when he was running for president in 2016. But I guess if you get invited to play golf, then off you go.

I'm curious whether Lindsey will have anything to say about this. Such a coward.
