Comedian and political commentator Bill Maher says Californians will “never vote for a Republican” as long as President Donald Trump is associated with the party. In the remarks reported by outlets, Maher frames California’s voting behavior as unlikely to shift while Trump’s political brand remains tied to Republican politics.

The reports describe Maher’s comments as reflecting broader arguments about party alignment and voter preferences in California. Fox News presents the statement in the context of ongoing political outcomes and perceived failures, while Yahoo News relays the same claim without adding a distinct counterpoint in the provided excerpt. Across the coverage, the central element is Maher’s prediction about California’s electoral choices under the condition he specifies: Trump’s association with Republicans.

None of the supplied material includes specific voting data, policy details, or direct responses from political figures. The emphasis remains on Maher’s assertion rather than on independently documented evidence about future elections.
