Bill Maher asked the panel on his HBO television show to hypothesize what would happen if President Trump killed his team of advisers negotiating with North Korea.
On Friday's episode of "Real Time with Bill Maher," the comedian was joined by New York Times columnist Charles Blow, Democratic Rep. Katie Porter, and national security analyst Clint Watts. Maher posed the hypothetical in light of reports that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un killed or imprisoned members of his own negotiating team.
"Reported last week, Kim Jong Un had his entire negotiating team killed. What if Trump killed his negotiating team?" Maher asked the panelists at the start of the segment. "What if he killed [Secretary of State] Mike Pompeo and [national security adviser] John Bolton? What would [Sen. Majority Leader] Mitch McConell say or do?"
"Is this a real question?" Blow responded, laughing.
"Yes it is. What would [GOP Sen.] Lindsey Graham do? What would [Fox News host] Sean Hannity do?" Maher said, before ending the line of questioning.
