Bill Maher said that Democrats have to stop talking about playing as dirty as the Republicans and start doing it and hes gave them a head start by making a campaign ad for the 2020 presidential election that targets Trumps brain.

Ever since Democrats lost the 2016 election theres been a backlash to the when they go low, we go high approach, Maher said on Fridays Real Time. But they never say what exactly it is we should do, just, We gotta fight dirty. OK. But how?

After recommending Democrats enlist some reptilian scumbags of our own to match the efforts of Republican dirty tricksters on their payroll like Roger Stone, Karl Rove and Rudy Giuliani, Maher said he then suggested focusing on Trumps mental state.

Trump is a neurological mess, but the Democrats are too scared to make an issue of it when actually it would cut together really well as a campaign ad, the comedian said, cuing the video.

The ad showed the president mumbling and stumbling over his words, recalling how those whove known Trump in the past have said hes not the same person he was and another saying he may be having small strokes. It ends with footage of the POTUS boarding Air Force One with toilet paper stuck on his shoe.

No one wishes ill health on the president, but a country needs a leader to be there a leader who is ALL there, the ad concluded.

Maher added, Make that go viral, would ya, because Democrats should really be running that for real.

You can catch the faux ad above followed by a Real Time creation of a deepfake of the infamous (and completely unsubstantiated) pee tape.

There's just over a year to go until the 2020 presidential election, but the competition to potentially replace Donald Trump in the White House is already stiff.

There's a lot to keep track of, but we're here to help. Here's TheWrap's list of everyone who is running for president so far and who has dropped out.

Joe Biden Democratic Party

Entered Race: April 25, 2019

The former Obama VP was a late entry to the race, formally declaring his run for the presidency on April 25. But he's long been a presumed frontrunner, leading many early polls. This is his third presidential run, and for months he's been telling anyone who'll listen that he'd be the most qualified candidate for the job. He's also already been under scrutiny over criticism about his behavior with women, prompting him to post a video promising he'd be "more mindful and respectful" of a woman's "personal space."

Biden has also been prone to embarrassing slips of the tongue, among them placing the assassinations of RFK and MLK in "the late '70s," mistaking his campaign's text number for a website, waxing nostalgic about his friendships with Senate segregationists, and saying "poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids."

Entered Race: Feb. 9, 2019
