“Real Time” host Bill Maher shocked his audience when he told them that the FBI’s raid on President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago could actually help Trump.

Fox News reports:

After poking fun at the “items” that were found in Trump’s safe, Maher questioned during a panel discussion whether the FBI raid will equate to “Al Capone’s vault” given how broad the classification of “classified” and “top-secret” information is.

“Is it going to justify this raid or is this going to be a political nightmare?” Maher asked.

…

“His fortune was finally falling. The Big Lie was finally losing momentum. DeSantis was beating him in the polls — you know who hates this more than anybody? DeSantis,” Maher exclaimed.

“‘I had this in the bag, and now I gotta run against President Martyr,'” Maher continued, impersonating DeSantis. “And this is saving Trump politically because now, of course, all the Republicans — what do they do?”
