If they ask Bill, which the media does, he'll tell you, "Why the fuck are you asking me?" He knows his political views are and should be meaningless. He's a comedian. The news media is responsible for the mess we're in, stop asking comedians what they think and stop white washing fascism.
I don't really understand this sentiment. No one is asking him to run for office. He's an American citizen and he has a huge platform to speak on. Of course his political views have merit. You don't have to be a political science major to talk politics. This comment section is proof of that. Obviously he is only one person and no one should be informing theirselves soley in what he has to say, but like anyone else his words aren't meaningless.
It's his sentiment, not mine.

Lol great clip. I totally get what's he's saying. We don't necessarily need to ask him for his views, but he has 100% offered them himself.
