Oh look, its british Millhouse!
i scrolled down to the comments with exactly the right timing to hear him say these words right as i was reading them
He looks like someone who says my parents are my best friends, who also is an orphan
Venezuelan here.
2016 was a dumpster fire of epic proportions. One time I came home from school via subway and witnessed so much poverty that I broke down crying.
Thngs are looking better now, and with luck Maduro and his lackeys will be ousted from power this July 28th
Man. Trudeau was still popular back then. Simpler times. 😅😢
Thought it was Wednesday for a second there, but guess it's just Binge Old LWT Episodes And Laugh Then Immediately Feel Bad Time.
Effin a.

Series 3. 'We're about to elect a madman'. (2016). I wonder why anyone would remind us of this right now? 🤔
Ok….. I tried googling it, but there hasn’t been an update and frankly this is a crime. Did that man find his cat or not??????? 👀👀💀💀💀
I was just wondering this!
Most importantly, should we still be asking him if this is his cat?
Last I heard they had *completely* lost the cat.
Watching these brilliant reruns is the best way to spend an afternoon, second only to paying bills and refilling my ice chest.
Hillary was comfortably ahead for a majority of her time as a potential nominee.
However, there *is* an obvious favored media spotlight for certain candidates - which she was given from the very beginning. We'll never know what could have been if that spot had gone to Bernie instead.
Maybe he would have lost fair and square, maybe it wouldn't have mattered.. maybe he would have crushed Trump in a few debates and gone on to win.
We'll never know, and that's what I personally had a problem during the 2016 election cycle.
it was also proven via leaked emails that there was unfair play in favor of Hillary against Bernie simply because Bernie's views leaned a bit _too_ far left for some of the higher up Dems liking. The fact that Trump did not win by a huge margin, and the fact that the Democratic party had to actually cheat in some ways to get Hillary as the nominee leads me to believe that it's not too hard to imagine that in an alternate timeline where morals were upheld, Bernie very well could've taken the 2016 election away from Trump, and the world would've been a _MUCH_ less shitty place to exist in during the time that has passed since those events took place.
I kept saying “molest moist” over and over. It made me chuckle 🎸
Nah, Canada is what happened when the English and the French abandoned a baby in the snow, and the baby was raised by the kind of dudes that necessitated the creation of the Geneva conventions.
it'll be a cold day in hell before i let someone raised on British food talk shit about Friendly's
Well you could argue that him being British means he knows exactly what terrible food tastes like.
The great chefs of England, yeah that would be a thick book, It would be a pamphlet just saying try another country.
@@bully.of.broad.st.3626 you could as an American who grew up on Friendly's, and lives in Britain, I know that he stood immediately recognize it's superiority. There is an EEL shop down the road. EELS!
Did he ever find his cat 🐈?
So, uh, did Kadyrov ever find his cat?
Did you write him about it?
He needs to know that you have not seen his cat.
Bernie would've destroyed trump. Would have embarrassed the hell out of him.
It's cute that you think that. All Trump had to do was hammer the "Communist" angle and Bernie's inability to explain his ideas as workable plans would've crushed him.
@Joshua_Shadow_Manriguez not everyone is shook by that dog whistle as they used to be. His record speaks for itself
@@Kyle-xh4rn yeah, a record of doing nothing except riding the coattails of actual leaders. He'd get stomped against Trump. The plls assumed Trump and the GOP would be as lenient in running against Bernie as the DNC was.
@Kyle-xh4rn if you look at Bernie's record, you see that he's an Anti-America Socialist who praises dictators like Fidel Castro. Conservatives would've had an easy time scaring up support against Bernie and letting his natural stupidity do the rest. It's telling how Bernie had to lie to get support for his half-baked ideas, and he turned into a babbling lunatic when he had to explain his ideas beyond reductive slogans.
@@Kyle-xh4rn I feel sorry for you.
What do you get when you mix sewage with champagne?
Sewage!
15:18 is probably my favourite joke ever from the show xD
I cannot be the only person who heard oboegate.
Damn, in hindsight, I feel like Bernie would've been a FAR better candidate for the dems. Things could've turned out differently with him, though we won't ever know for sure.
I agree 👍
@davidbodor1762 in hindsight, Bernie is quite literally as bad an option as Trump. Both are lying grifters who emboldened the worst of America to pretend to be "Patriots" for The Right and "Activists" on The Left.
Hard disagree, the word socialist alone is enough to scare away more than half of all voters.
@@mittensthemeow1485 The republicans are calling Biden a communist, I don't think it really matters at this point bc reps will use the same words regardless of who the candidate is.
@@davidbodor1762 what? I’m talking about Bernie, he’s a self described democratic socialist. The word socialist scares people on both sides.
"party activist" sound so fun....
Shoulda been bernie
Revisiting this from 2024 and I can't help but wonder how stuff might have turned out if Bernie Sanders had run against Trump instead
Wonder what will happen at the DNC convention this year
Gonna be another Aliens Vs Predator.
Whoever wins. We lose.
From what I have seen, they all seem to be backing Biden 100%, much to my dismay. At this point, Biden needs to step down and they need to nominate "Generic Democrat" in his place.
8:28 this looked like the pro-Bernie protests in my hometown after the DNC had Hillary as the nominee
the angry grape looks like a classical american witch. he only needs a pointy hat and a wart to pull it all together x''D
This broadcast of Last Week Tonight came out 7 days ago, And they're talking about the 2016 election I'm all sorts of confused.
RIP Meatloaf
Did they ever find the cat?
Did someone just 'Benjamin Button' Henry Kissinger?
nothing to complain about if you're watching for free on youtube. we all know they're on break right now anyway
This episode didn’t age well
Moist.
Any chance we can get season 7?
Depends on if he bought the rights for it or not like he has with 1 - 3
From what I've read, he bought the rights all the way up to Season 8.
@@diapason89 oh brilliant, look forward to when he uploads them if that's the case
RIP Friendlys
Wait Jon don't say mois.... NOoooo!!! I'm too late!!!!!
bernie sanders 4 president!
i have not seen your cat!
Is Maduro the Venezuelan trump?
He is like, if a drug dealer and a nazi had a baby, and then dropped them on purpose ❤ (Yes, I am Venezuelan)
Please date all postings!
The date is in the description.
Crack that whip John. Ty for the common sense.
Omigosh! I just got a bengal cat from the humane society. I hope it’s not this guys cat.
GOD!
He’s so young!!!
Bernie 2024!!! Or basically anyone other than Biden or Trump!!!
You should do a story on Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
I mean, I get it is annoying, and I get that, as a politician, his "apologies" are just by the book, they are empty and meaningless, but I always find really hypocritical of people when they expect decency and maturity, but whenever that is shown, it is interpreted as annoying, goofy, and made fun of, well, you get what you hail I guess, no wonder US has so many toxic politicians.
#FindingKadyrovsCat #IsThisYourCat
Hi
sup
Lo
Hey
Maduro could be venezuelan Saddam hussein. Anyway still no syria.
Edit: we got our first shout out! 7:30
Edit 2: shout out to chechnya another example of Russian barbarism
Who else is here in 2024?
Damm kinda sad
You look happier here
MoistCr1TiKaL would be very upset at you mocking Moist, John. You're stepping on his turf now. Tread carefully.
In the moist swamp that is CZcams. Almost as moist a swamp as our primaries and conventions, John.
I don't know everything about Charlie but isn't he just as aware of how uncomfortable the word makes people? 😅 Thought it was part of the joke
We all know Bernie should have won.
I'm an angry toucan funded by shillary.
funny how the british man doesn´t mention us embargoe in venezuelas crisis...
This episode aired three years before the sanctions, my dude.
@@treelobster6137 Just simply untrue, google is free. Just off wikipedia "In March 2015, the Obama administration imposed asset and visa sanctions against 110 Venezuelan individuals, and eight entities;[3] in August 2017, the Trump administration imposed sanctions which prohibited Venezuela's access to U.S. financial markets, and in May 2018, expanded them to block purchase of Venezuelan debt" Feel free to look up more info if you'd like
@@ryanrogers52 okay, now check the air date on the episode. Only one of the dates you provided would even be relevant here.
@@treelobster6137 yup that’s why I shared. You said it aired 3 years before the sanctions. That isn’t true, Obama administration passed 110 in 2015. Thus making your statement wrong 🤷♂️. I understand many more sanctions were passed after this episode but that wasn’t the point my guy.
80% of venezuelan imports are ilegal, the sanction didn't even cover 20% on the legal part. ❤ So no worries.
