During Friday's edition of Real Time With Bill Maher, host Bill Maher effectively admitted that the #Resistance has no chance of taking power as long as the economy remains healthy.  So he told his Trump-hating audience and his fellow panelists that he would like to see the economy fail if it means the end of President Trump: "I feel like the bottom has to fall out at some point and by the way, I’m hoping for it because I think one way you get rid of Trump is a crashing economy. So please, bring on the recession. Sorry if that hurts people but it’s either root for a recession or you lose your democracy."  Warning: Video contains explicit language.
