Bill Maher Praises Trump's Gaza Peace Deal Amid Unlikely Surprise.
In an unusual display of admiration, late-night host Bill Maher credited President Donald Trump with brokering a peace deal in the Gaza Strip that many had deemed impossible. Speaking to his HBO audience on Real Time, Maher acknowledged that Trump accomplished something that others thought would be out of reach.
Trump's deal brought about an end to years-long conflict in Gaza and was facilitated by mediators who are now expected to begin working on phases of a 20-point peace plan. This breakthrough came after two years of negotiations, and the president has been praised for his ability to achieve this goal.
Maher's praise was somewhat unexpected given that he frequently criticizes Trump. However, in this instance, Maher chose to give credit where credit is due, calling out others who had tried but failed to pull off a similar deal. When asked about Trump's success with the peace plan, Maher stated that "a lot of people tried to pull this off, and he did," showing some begrudging respect for the president.
Maher's quip about Trump's ability to send people back home also referenced his latest push to deport illegal immigrants convicted of crimes.

... like who else can just swoop in and solve a decades-long problem with no one even expecting it? 
It's not like he didn't have some luck on his side or that the other party was desperate for a deal. Plus, let's be real, it's not like they actually did anything all those years... just a bunch of politicians playing politics. And now everyone's giving him props? 
Give me a break. Maybe it's just a good PR stunt to boost his rep or something... idk 
... Bill Maher giving credit to Trump on a peace deal in Gaza? That's like saying Obama was great at playing Fortnite 
... doesn't really add up. Has anyone seen the rest of that 20-point peace plan? Sounds like just another broken promise 
Bill Maher giving props to Trump like that is so weird! I mean I guess he did manage to get some stuff done, but a peace deal in Gaza? That's like getting an A+ on our math test 
. I'm surprised even the teachers would agree with him on this one! Maher's always been super critical of Trump, so it's interesting that he'd be all praise-y now 
. Maybe he just had a moment of clarity or something? Anyway, I guess you can't deny the guy's ability to get things done... even if they're not exactly what we want him to do 
.
. But what about all the other issues that still need to be addressed in Gaza and Israel? It's not like this one deal is gonna solve everything 
. Can't we just have some real solutions for once instead of praising politicians who might not even care about the people they're supposed to be helping 
. ppl always say he's all about the drama and controversy, but sometimes u just gotta give credit where credit is due 
. still dont agree with his policies on immigration tho 
, but nice to see him get a win on something that really matters 
. It's not like he single-handedly did all the work (although, let's be real, his ego probably played a role 
). The fact that mediators are moving forward with the 20-point plan is huge news and shows that sometimes these crazy-long negotiations actually pay off 
. Plus, it's not like Trump's just sitting back collecting his paycheck while others do all the heavy lifting... although, I mean, he did get a lot of criticism for it initially 
. Trump did manage to pull off a pretty impressive peace deal in Gaza, and it's definitely not something that's been easy to achieve. Maybe we should give him some props for that? 
but the thing is, who else could've pulled off something so seemingly impossible? i mean, we all know trump's got a reputation 4 being unpredictable, but this is just wild 
Guess you can't keep a good thing from him, even if it was by accident
