Bill Maher makes ominous election prediction about Biden's latest policy move: 'It's a bizarre scheme'

Bill Maher railed against President Joe Biden's latest policy move saying 'I don't think they could have handled it worse'. 

Speaking on his show, Real Time, on Friday, Maher slammed Biden's new immigration policy, saying that it is 'not gonna succeed' with voters. 

On Tuesday, Biden announced an executive action that limits the number of migrants who can arrive at the border and claim asylum to 2,500 per day. 

Maher said: 'If Biden loses this election, it's going to be because of two things: He's old… and immigration.

'I mean, just on a political level, I don't think they could have handled it worse.'

Biden's executive order has been slammed by both Republicans and Democrats. 

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) called the order a 'betrayal' of American ideals and Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) criticized the fact the action does not make it easier for migrants to obtain documented status.

Biden is using the same authority former President Trump used when he was putting bans on those who could cross into the U.S. via the southern border.

Discussing Biden's decision, Maher said: 'He's finally, after saying he couldn't do anything, he's gonna issue an executive order- by the way, this is the same executive order Trump tried to get through the courts and they didn't let him do it. 

'But he's gonna finally try it six months before the election, which says we will put a cap of 2500 now, asylum seekers coming in. 

'If it passes 2,500, if it's 2,501, then we automatically close the border. 

'Fire marshall says 'No more!' He's gonna come here and close the club! And if you don't have a stamp on your hand, you can't get back in!'

Maher cited a figure that 'more than nine million migrants have entered' the US since Biden took office in January 2021. 

He said: 'That's more than the number of people who live in Nicaragua. He let in all of Nicaragua.

'The question that Democrats don't seem to be able to have the balls to answer is just how many is too many? And like, infinity is the answer- if you don't give that answer, you're a racist. That's their essential problem with this issue.'

Discussing the executive order, Maher said: 'But when it goes down to 1,500, then we resume standard asylum procedures. It's like surge-pricing with Uber.

'It's a bizarre scheme that of course has pleased nobody. It looks like a last minute- it looks like he did nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing. Then of course, he did try through Congress and the Republicans purposely spiked that football. 

'They didn't want this bill because they wanted it as an issue. So they could have fixed it themselves. They didn't. But now it looks like this is his last minute before-the-election Hail Mary pass, and it's not gonna succeed.'
