'What's the big crime?': Bill Maher defends Harrison Butker's 'homemaker' speech

Comedian Bill Maher has defended Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker against backlash over his graduation speech at Benedictine College. The Kansas City Chiefs kicker recently came under fire over his comments directed at women during his commencement speech. The NFL player has been labelled a misogynist and having a 1950s mentality following his viral speech. The League has since publicly distanced itself from his comments. During a panel discussion on Friday, the 'Real Time' host said he doesn’t understand "what the big crime is". "I don't agree with much with this guy, but I don't get the thing, Maher said. "He said… ‘Some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world.' Ok, that seems fairly, like, modern." "‘But I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world.’ I don't see what the big crime is. I really don't." Maher questioned why this view is seen as problematic, noting that many Americans share it. "And I think this is part of the problem people have with the left is that lots of people in this country are like this," he said. "Like he's saying some of you may go on to lead successful careers, but a lot of you are excited about this other way that people- everybody used to be. And now can't that be a choice too?"
