Bill Maher, host of HBO’s “Real Time,” endorsed Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner on Friday, saying he supported the Democrat’s run despite some of Platner’s “scary” positions and actions.

“I would still urge the folks in Maine to vote for him, for two reasons,” Maher said after listing off numerous controversies.

“One, we need to restore balance in our government, and a Democratic Senate would help a lot with that.

“And two, get used to it. America is a country filled with a lot of broken, horribly educated, phone-addicted, sort of nutty people. And as long as we live in a representative democracy, we are always electing our reflection in the mirror.

“I wish the tattoo was the scariest thing about Platner. It’s not. That would be his solution to a home invasion, which is to rape the home invader.”

According to a woman who previously dated Platner and now has raised concerns about alleged disturbing behavior, “He said this a lot: If anybody ever broke in here, I would rape them,” but not in a sexual or “gay” way, Lyndsey Fifield said.

She added that Platner stated he would want to instead impose dominance over them through penetration and that he believed rape was about power.

“Let’s get real about Graham Platner,” Maher said. “The big story is the Democrats can likely take back the Senate in November if they win Maine.”

“But their local candidate … is after the primary this week, let’s just say, a guy who has a backstory that screams, ‘Don’t ask,’” Maher said. 

“Now, I don’t judge Graham Platner because I’m just learning who he is,” Maher continued. “Problem is, so is he. What I do know is he served his country in the Marines in war, and you can never discount how big that is.

“But then there’s the sexting while married, uh, scary behavior. So, say some of his exes, old posts about how he’s a communist and all cops are bastards and black people don’t tip.”

Platner, who formally became the Democratic nominee to challenge incumbent Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, earlier this week, has grappled with his resurfaced past, receiving criticism for making off-color remarks on sexual abuse, race and terror and allegedly threatening behavior toward women.

He also has received criticism for a tattoo on his chest, which resembled the Nazi “Totenkopf” or Death’s Head, a symbol that was used by concentration camp guards.

“And then, of course, there’s the Nazi tattoo on his chest,” Maher said. “I mean, seriously, this guy’s whole life is the movie ‘The Hangover.’ He doesn’t need a term in the Senate. He needs a gap year in Costa Rica.”

Maher went on to say Mainers should vote for Platner.

Later in the segment, Maher also took a jab at President Trump’s communication style, connecting him to a new wave of politicians where bizarre behavior or comments don’t matter.

“Our current president just speaks out loud his internal monologue,” Maher said. 

“You know what the internal monologue is, right?’ he asked. “It’s just that stream of thoughts that we all have pouring through our heads all the time and that we all edit. We edit our thoughts.

“We don’t just fling all of our feces. We have a Strait of Hormuz between our brain and our mouth where we don’t let everything through. But not the president of the United States.”
