Liberal comedian Bill Maher said during his show this week that President Joe Biden was making the Democratic Party “look bad” for not firing the head of the U.S. Secret Service after former President Donald Trump was shot during an assassination attempt last weekend.

Maher made the remarks during his HBO show “Real Time” on Friday while he was interviewing Biden Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.

“Should Joe Biden have fired the Secret Service head?” Maher asked. “I mean, I don’t understand that.”

Buttigieg gave a non-answer, saying that he worked in a different department and that there was “a really serious after-action report and process and a whole lot of scrutiny going on there,” adding that the incident was “under a microscope.”

Maher responded: “Well, you didn’t need a microscope to see it. The guy was on the roof, you know, like not that far away.”

“I’ve seen people fired for less, and it just looks bad,” Maher added. “It looks like, ‘Well, the other guy from the other party got shot. Well, we’ll look into it if we have time.’”

Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle remained defiant amid overwhelming calls that she resign after her agency failed to prevent the shooting from happening.

When asked during the ABC NEWS interview if she was planning to stay on, she responded: “I do plan to stay on.”

At least one person in the crowd was killed and two more were seriously injured after the 20-year-old would be assassin exploited holes in the security coverage at the event that allowed him to climb onto of a nearby roof and open fire on the president with a clear line of sight from only a little over a hundred yards away.
