He seems like a Kennedy Jr. guy

He constantly tries to get Republicans to disavow Trump on his show. He used his show to practically beg people to vote for Biden even if they didn't like him, just to get Trump out of office. People here may not like everything he does, I certainly don't, but the guy will never support Trump, I'm willing to state that unequivocally.

He's a tribal Democrat. He would absolutely endorse Trump if he had a D by his name. Trump actually used to be a Democrat. He just switched to R because he is a conman and saw which party base could be conned more easily.

I believe you meant that John Oliver could fork him up.

I'm pretty sure he was vaccinated. He did criticize the piss poor messaging during Covid, i.e. claiming the vaccine would keep you from getting the virus entirely, which was never true, and harmful to the effort to get people vaccinated. He made a lot of fun of incoherent mask rules. If you watch his documentary, Religulous, you'll see that he's actually anti all religion, not just Islam. As far as being a transphobe, I'm not like a huge fan or anything, so I don't see his stuff all that often, but he doesn't seem like the kind of person to care from what I've seen. That said, his fawning over Elon in particular made it impossible for me to take him seriously, along with his compulsive shitting on millennials and Gen Z.

Yay

I didn't know that about the WGA (Maher being in it but not Stewart), that is an important distinction, thanks.
