Sparks flew as the two engaged in a no-holds-barred debate, delving headfirst into the tumultuous world of politics.
Amidst the charged atmosphere, tensions soared when the topic turned to Donald Trump and Joe Biden. Maher, insisted on lambasting Trump, expecting McGraw to follow suit. However, Dr. Phil refused to dance to Maher's tune and stood firm in his convictions.
The verbal jousting escalated rapidly, with both parties staunchly defending their contrasting viewpoints. As the air crackled with intensity, Dr. Phil, renowned for his straightforward demeanor, delivered a scathing retort that left no room for misinterpretation.
Later in the interview, perhaps still annoyed, Dr. Phile brazenly advised Maher to "go f*ck yourself."
Watch the full interview here:
Slay News reported that Maher said: “I hate to be that guy at the party who says, ‘Hey Doc, could you look at my elbow’ but like, as long as you are here and I may never get the chance again."
“Please. I mean, have a shot at me."
“I would love to hear — if you have any thoughts about like how I could be better or what maybe I’m doing wrong.
McGraw said. “No, that’s why I said — I’m probably the last person to do it ’cause I think we think too much alike.
“I watch all of your shows,”
“Oh good,” Maher said.
“You watch none of mine, so go f*ck yourself,” McGraw said.
Overall, this interview had it's moments of tension, but all in all, McGraw and Maher were able to have a good debate about the state of our country and other cultural issues.
But it seems out out of character for Dr. Phil to tell someone "go f*ck yourself," but if anyone can bring that out of him it's Bill Maher.
