Abandon all hope, ye who enter the comment section
lol
Lol no shit. It was like a experiment to see if they could get 11,000 idiots to all yell in one place.
What hope?
hahaha
Challenge accepted
and that is why Bernie was the best choice.
Maybe in 2020.
Besides a lot of his campaign promises made it into Hillary 's plans, like continuing universal health care and making college free.
lol clinton isn't going to do those things, we all know this, she is too much of a lier
I'm Blackman You didn't watch the video, did you?
You can call her a liar all you want, everyone who has worked with her claims she's the kind of woman who gets shit done.
That seems like a better choice to the indebted fascist orange megalomaniac who uses his Penis as a talking point, IMHO.
At least if she doesn't do a good job, it will be over after four years. If he gets into power, that's what you'll be stuck with. People like him don't just go away. They find a way to abolish democracy.
Not really relevant anymore, focus on the fucking issue at hand. Keeping Trump out of the White House.
What democracy? Impeachment is still a thing. Trump would get kicked out pretty quickly if he's elected.
2020: *laughter that turns into sobbing*
watching this at half way through 2020 makes me depressed
@Disruptive Bee love you Hillary, ready to see Nancy.
Zachary Thoroman
Nancy who?
Zachary Thoroman
Also: vote for Joe. He’s the Democratic nominee. If you want Trump gone, you can’t vote for a third party. They don’t stand a chance.
Joe wasn’t your first choice? Wasn’t mine either. But he and Bernie (see Bernie’s track record for being FOR treating people fairly, it’s very good), and to a marginally lesser extent Warren and a couple others I can’t even remember anymore, have my confidence in their good intent.

Well, the answer to that is another Hillary scandal.
Jamming InDaStreets the corrupt DNC is why
Cuz they like to be fat.
they do, the system is rigged... it berns ;)
Going to automatically skip the comments for this video.
Logical and rational viewers beware, it's a minefield of orange trolls down there.
Many of us are actually lefties who dont need to be told Trump is bad. We're just watching a once enjoyable show dig its own grave, and blantantly omit critical elements of systemic corruption.
Really. His segments on Hillary are like watching someone navigate a minefield.
Yeah he really kept brushing everything off for Hillary, even though in the beginning he made it sound like he was going to criticize both candidates. I get this is a left leaning show, but this was just over the top biased.
Also when are people going to talk actual policies? I'm just tired of the 24/7 personal attacks.
It's all liberal bias and he acts as if Hillary is some golden angel and plays off all the terrible things she does.
Kuroda Cursus
At this point, the most accurate things in his videos are his opening descriptions of the election, not because of anything wrong with the content itself, but because that's literally what this whole thing has reduced America to. And considering how passionate and unforgiving your average CZcams comments section is...
well, good luck to anyone who tries to read any of it for more than five minutes at a time.
But... but... you're IN the comment section. How do you skip it when you fall in face first?
Currently May 2020, you underestimated the number of Trump's raisins. :(
Herdan
There are very good sources, AP and Reuter’s being THE top two, and I for one would say that NPR/PBS is very good.
Herdan
1) remind me what jingoism is?
2) it’s AP (the Associated Press), not APB - but that was a typo, wasn’t it?
3) really? Eh, okay, maybe Reuter’s is only good for covering the western world, or maybe you’re wrong about them being bad outside of the west - either way, that means that when discussing domestic issues, they should be considered reliable.
4) yeah... cable news isn’t that great... Fox is by far the worst (right-wing), followed (but not closely) by CNN and MSNBC (left-wing) - MSNBC, not to be confused with NBC, which, while not as reliable as most long-standing print outlets, is decent.
i like raisins (this is not a metaphor, trump can suck it, but raisins are still ok)
@@parsnipguy2986 that’s awesome parsnip guy
And come August 2022, he apparently took truckloads of classified papers to his FL residence
I was startled by that “your dad texts you the letter Q” joke, not gonna lie
John Oliver predicted Qanon confirmed?
I hadn’t even noticed that, but OH MY GOD
He just keeps predicting the future. *sigh* We really should just start a cult around him and hope for the best
5:07 Shit.....that joke hits different today.
To say the least.....
@@SomePersonInTheWorld John Oliver is Qanon confirmed?
I miss my dude Bernie 😪
He's kissing Clinton's ass.
Ya he got cheated out of the nomination. Terrible.
Yeah. Not nearly enough votes to win, almost as if enough people voted for his opponent that she won.
#VoteBlueNoMatterWho Then your dude Bernie will become significantly more powerful in Congress.
Then vote for progressives on down-ballot elections
he is a comedian with an opinion, he has every right to have a bias
I like how its people who claim to be defenders of free speech who are attacking him
How is it interrupting free speech to claim bias?
it doesn't, that's exactly the point.
That bias should be disclosed that HBO is a donator to Clinton, which they didn't.
Do you think that would change the minds of some people watch this. Yeah.
Objectively, this piece was very soft on Clinton with the facts it provided while going very in depth on Trump. Anyone with a brain would realize they're trying to manipulate your views.
Are you fucking high? Did you watch the video? He went into depth in everything Trumpites bitch about. Do you know something the world doesn't?
John: “Okay, so I need…”
HBO: “Jesus, what now?”
John: “…a shit ton of raisins.”
HBO: “Okay, sure, why not.”
Oh thank god we don’t have to make the world largest marble cake with a authoritarian world leader falling off his horse again
You know they're ready and willing. Everytime this man does something like that it kills. Oliver is a f'n legend 👑
Think of all the lonely bran flakes out there, wondering when their raisins will come home.
I wonder if they gave them out to homeless people after the show.
@@hildegunstvonmythenmetz6095 First of all, those raisins went on the floor. The homeless don't want it.
Second of all, raisins are not a food and the homeless do not want it. Raisins are a punishment for children who feel joy when they hold a "chocolate chip" "cookie".
Getting texted “Q” 10 times by your Dad takes on a horrifying new meaning now. One problem gone, another takes its place I guess.
I don’t understand what you mean, can you explain?
@@saasproductions3053 I was referring to QAnon.
@@matthewjarek3026 Thanks.
John is competing with the Simpsons for the most accidental prophecies at this point.
came looking for this
I will never under stand how ppl can say "I like him because he's not a politician" like uhh is that a good thing?? Do you call a plumber to fix your cable. It's the stupidest argument.
Edit: since the ppl in the CZcams community are all English teachers I fixed my mistake "plumper" to "plumber".
What's worse is that he uses all a politician's tricks ... but to a degree never seen before. His slogan ought to be "You think politicians are tricky, sneaky, conniving people? Wait 'till you see how much better I am at it than they are."
a politician isnt a skill or profession. the establishment is broken! destroy the establishment and start from scratch. Hitlery is the establishment and Trump is a grenade.
Yeah because politicians like Clinton are doing such a great job. You dont understand because you worship the bullshit people like her... Politics is business btw and you are a moron if you dont see that.
That's such a dumb argument since inevitably when you destroy something much like a bone the crums will be missing and will be even harder to put back together in a food way. Why flip the chair over if you can redesign it?
don't know if you thoroughly read that persons comment but they never said that they supported Hillary, how about stop trying to put shade where shade is not needed
I'm still voting for Gary Johnson. Fuck the two party system.
Yeah I was disappointed with this episode. I've been hoping he would rip a hole in our two party system but instead he just fed into it.
As long as you have electoral college, you are pretty much stuck with two party system. Just elect president directly like normal people.
A vote for Gary Johnson is a vote for Trump. Congratulations.
this man doesn't even know what global warming is. HOW??
It's like the World Series is down to two teams, and you're a parent demanding that your kid's Pee Wee team be allowed to play.
If I had a nickel for every time Donald Trump used his charity foundation funds to buy a portrait of himself, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.
Think of it this way. Those are just the one ones you know about. Have you seen the most recent footage of the amount of bobbleheads and figurines of himself he has? And a sculpture of Mt. Rushmore that has his head added to it!!
@@mikotomisaka8714 They were referencing Phineas and Ferb.
@@cleffa173 Well it's not an episode I'm familiar with then.

"Okay, that puts us to 10K raisins and five - still not enough to account for one of each and every Trump scandal since 2016 until this very day, but..at least we know our estimate was closer."

Writing this in October 2022, we truly had no idea what would happen. Election denials, an insurrection, so much shit. The laughter from this has turned into sobbing
How astute of John to predict that my Dad would be texting the letter Q a lot recently
Thank you, John Oliver, for being the voice of reason.
Not like there is an extreme bias because Time Warner is Hillarys eighth biggest donor
Keep banging that drum, pal. It's not like Russia is helping the Annoying Orange or that said Annoying Orange is the worst option imaginable.
We need more voices of reason in this comment section. I am glad he has 10 times more up votes than down votes though.
*voice of raisin :D
+Justin Quinn - Extreme bias? Haha. It appears that you can't realize that Trump is a complete fraud. You're been punked.
Seeing those raisins go to waste makes me sad
and i need the fiber...
Chavezoid Maybe they were old and dried out and no good to eat.
larushka1 ....maybe, but the probabilities are that the production team simply ordered a bunch of raisins from the supermarket, instead of investing time in finding the store that had old, dried out ones that were not good to eat.
I wouldn't know for sure, but maybe larushka1 is right. Maybe they just ordered defective batches of raisins from a company. I see your concern though
Becca Lynn ...That's what I'm curious about though. What company specializes in selling food that's not good to eat for production purposes? Maybe one exists, but it seems improbable.
4 years later and we still dont have answers for the Swiss file transfer
John Oliver single-handedly saving the raisin industry
the swiss file transfer joke was genius!
Lol, I fell for it. I hadn't heard of it before, but I just thought it was one of those trivial things I didn't pay attention to back in my teen years.
It really makes you rethink how republicans spoke about her scandals.
it's the same joke format that he uses every episode
Corrible Hunt if it ain’t broke....
@@corriblehunt4554 Same basic format, yes, but it's typically about a map or a person's physical appearance; it's not often he creates a whole new story with the same intent as his maps.
"Is mayonnaise a blind trust?"
"No Patrick, mayonnaise is not a blind trust."
"It is better than Donald Trump"

No it's a kind of food spread , it makes your ass fat .
_Raises Hand_ "Horseradish is not a blind trust either."
I am typing this from the year 2020. People of the past: you're not going to believe the shit that's about to go down.
Bro u dont even know
People of the future: don't judge us for believing it couldn't get any worse ... we didn't know any better.
Bruh. Shit's been wild
Wow and this is from 7 months ago. Even you had no idea friend. Wah wah wahhhhhh
And this is from 1 week ago. Reading this after Ruth Bader Ginsburg died: You dont even know how fucked up things can get...
It's really beyond my level of understanding. People of United States elected a guy with list of scandals, who managed to fall into more scandals while he was a president, got impeached and YET more people voted for him in 2020 than 2016. It's either that he was extremely good at fooling people or a lot of people were stupid enough to be fooled by someone like him.
Fuckin' Murica👌
Both. It's definitely both stupidity/ignorance and cunning to fool people. The republican party/GOP use fear to manipulate and control their constituents. Everything on "Faux news" is based on making you feel fear, constant reporting on crime, immigration, terrorism, "liberals trying to break up your family" etc, Trump played into it and his voters loved it.
Or its that out of the 2 worst candidates, he was better. Have you actually listened to how authoritarian her policies are?
@@mattgowrie8580 oy vey
In 2016 he had the benefit of Hillary being completely out-of-touch and not appealing to young voters even slightly, while Trump was riding the ridiculous meme factory of his candidacy and the charismatic facade he'd been cultivating for decades. By 2020 he had developed a borderline cult comprised of people with terminal tunnel vision, ignorant old people, *literally* violently partisan idiots, actual bigots, and everything in between, but he had garnered so much hate from those of us who actually have half a brain cell and could see how much of an incompetent jackass he really was that his cult, try as they might, couldn't save him from the hand of democracy. He's been a menace of every genuine patriot in America for the better part of half a decade now, but at least he's finally out of office. My only hope is that he gets imprisoned for all the various crimes he's committed both in and out of office...
This --- is much, much sadder in 2019.
@Zzzzeyd you didn't listen to literally anything in the video did you? Amazing
NAH HE IMPEACHED WE WINNING
try watching in 2020. . .
Only if Clinton didn't try to screw over bernie sanders back then tsk tsk tsk
I want to cry in 2020
"You're gonna have to swallow ten or we're all gonna be eating this shit for years."
That pretty much sums up why I've decided to bite the bullet and go against Trump...
i feel you man Hillary is a snake and has done a lot of bad shit but the amount of bad things trump has done could fill up a fucking phone book

You don't need to be American to judge the people that lead your neighbor countries. You may not have the right to choose, but everyone is allowed to have an opinion, after all it is often the spectators that have the most objective view as they don't inherently have a side in the conflict.
Trigger Alert: the following is my view on this issue and should in no way hurt anyone's butt.
While Hillary has been known to lie on her stances, her motives are clear, money and corporations. It's shit, but you know what to expect as the puppeteers that control her have always been after the same thing, yet they know how politics work so they will play carefully as not to collapse the country they profit off of.
In the other hand Trump is as Oliver says: Ethically compromised, he has no regard for the country itself so long as a handful of people agree with him, he has already started shit with other countries and he's not even the president.
America being one of the most powerful nations would become extremely dangerous for other nations and for itself if a man with the behavior of an 8 year old and the temper of a racist grandma leads it.
America technically didn't miss out on Sanders, he was taken away by the political system, Sanders crushed Hillary and Trump in terms of popular vote, but the voice of the people is outweighed by a handful of delegates and super delegates when it comes to the final decision.
Good luck to 2017's America and good luck to the rest of the world if that clown becomes president.
Aiden F. We need to start a write in campaign for Bernie Sanders.
HBO: How many raisins do you need?
John: Yes
It’s crazy watching this almost 5 years later. He wasn’t kidding about those raisins.
John Oliver's segments make for good repeat viewing these days
Siyabonga Africa
They're even more irritating now then they were then. We knew all this shit about Trump yet he was elected anyway.
If you like being propagandized, then sure!
John Oliver is full of shit, tried to make all of the Hillary stuff look nice. Shes a mass murderer, she is responsible for thousands of killed people in Lybia
Siyabonga Africa yeah, past 4 days been rewatching a lot of them. I forgot how good the standard testing segment was...
Ah, it was another time. We were so optimistic...
Don't be so hard on John, guys. We know that if he says anything true about Hillary, he's liable to meet with an unfortunate... accident.
+Melissa D yeah,no, go read about it a little bit more before talking about it. even though I would like Trump to win. Never saw a country so close to mine get into a bloody cival war
His argument is just as nuanced as most H-bots, "if you aren't caught or you use every loophole imaginable to do acts that are criminal for everyone else then there is no technical fault with our candidate". Fuck that, she is a criminal, she's just too fucking connected to allow the law to touch her.
therealnightwriter You say that now, but see what happens if Hillary implodes anymore and they try to claim she has a landslide win
Try 18 U.S. Code § 793, it doesn't require "willfully and unlawfully". Negligence is enough, and a max of 15 years.
You think she'll kill him? Seriously?
Seems like you guys are about to order a second giant batch of raisins this november.
I'm afraid we might. I'm starting to see a little bit of hope in the numbers about unhappiness with Trump over the past month or so, but meh, it's only a tiny little flicker of hope. Meanwhile, we're trapped in here.
given the fact that they're all probably going to have to be sent to his house, i wouldn't be surprised if he'd have to keep his kids away with a stick
@@birdn4t0r7 oh actually that's a good point, but for a different reason: you need a fun, complex rig to make it rain raisins like that, and he's not going to be able to do that at home.
Also, of course, stuff's gonna be a lot more obviously dire if he gets reelected.
Narrator: they did not.
@@thebestcentaur You can't possibly imagine how glad I am that I was wrong.
I wish they did this kind of investigating in how the DNC treated Bernie during 2016. Seeing a last week tonight breakdown would have been very cool.
@@martingoldfreed2627 Not really, maybe it's just because you only watch these CZcams segments instead of the full episode but he did make multiple jokes about Hillary during the campaign whenever she did a joke that failed or said something that was slightly wrong.
And besides, she's not as "interesting" as trump (same could be said about dems and republicans in general) and you gotta remember this is a comedy show and she doesn't produce as much "material" as the donald
@@MohamedSayed-wp3fv Yes apologies, I believe you are correct.
Ladz, if you support Donald Trump, good for you. But don't try to defend him in the comments, especially after watching this video.
Half of the things said about Hillary are clearly false and I'm not defending Hillary, I'm not even from America, but she is going to be the new president and thats that
right now it looks like it will go to the house unless someone buys them electoral votes new York already made up there minds that there voting Hillary regardless of what the people of new York want

Oliver destroys Trump every single time.
You're just ignorant.
Kozar You're just incredibly stupid then
Chill dude, you sound like an angry Trump supporter. Why the fuck do you have to use the word slaves? No wonder people say that Trump supporters are racists and bigots, you just proved their point.
You show no respect for other people's opinions, you just ridicule. I am a white liberal who believes that people should be treated with respect, does that make me bad? No, it is written in our Constitution. Justice and Freedom for all. That's bad?? Again, in our Constitution. You have read the Constitution haven't you?
Again, who the hell do you think you are? Take a look in the mirror, you have anger issues and you don't make sense.

No you don't make sense. I am sorry.
The great raisin flood of 2020 really struck us hard
Watching this again in 2023 is wild.
If I was on the fence before, John Oliver just sealed it for me. I'm voting for Hillary. No doubt
this is the way democracy ends.
not with a bang, but with thunderous applause
go Hillary!
yea voting hilary will change a lot ! corporations don't want her in the whitehouse! lmfao!

Fuck trump
This show is biased af. This is why I try to stay out of John Oliver's political videos as much as possible.
So why the fuck are you here? It's a goddamn comedy show, people. Not the unbiased news source so many people want it to be. Think for yourselves every once and a while.
Isn't he already thinking for himself? You're the one telling him not to make comments on videos he doesn't like...
What do you mean? He's literally saying "yes, Hillary is shit, but Donald Trump is worse." There's nothing really biased about that, it's fact. Hillary is shit, but Donald Trump would be the worst fucking mistake America has ever made.
Its a shitty 'comedy' show that tries to pass itself off as a form of 'news' but when its called out for its bullshit, they back to the same tired line of 'its just a comedy show, don't take it seriously!' Fuck John Oliver and all others of his ilk.
He's usually more impartial than this, but here he did present the counter argument against Clinton, and the points were all valid.
the “deez nuts” misdirection is such a timeless classic i love it
something so amusing about Michael Flynn being the one to talk about the nations' security carelessly being put a risk...
Yes, because in his eyes, putting the nation's security at risk carelessly is for amateurs. *He* does it intentionally.
I can't believe they rained raisins from the sky. There was no RAISIN to do that
Underrated.

well done.
Gonna kill myself now -_-
These are legit facts, nothing but facts; why are people angry again?
because either trump supporters are mad or Hillary supporters are mad there is no middle ground
*****
No, it's literally all the facts on the newest scandals; I have no idea how there's a bias when it comes to facts.
YouJustGotAnimated yep
Literally all the facts? Why didn't they mention a lot of the shady stuff in her emails then (talking about provocations at Trump rallies, media being Clinton's bitch, funding ISIS, voter fraud etc.)? Why did they mention only 2 foreign sponsors, hiding the fact that there are Saudi Arabia, Kuwait etc. in the donor list?
How can facts be biased? When they are cherry picked or rephrased to suit certain agenda (like media did with Clinton's Wikileaks emails), or they can be paid less attention than needed (again, compare the Trump's tape discussion time with the Clinton's emails being leaked).
This is a show, with cherry picked facts and that one guy trying too hard be funny.
HACKshader
You do also know that Wikileaks isn't factual right? They just pick out stuff that could be lies, half-truths, or true.

Not only his statement is remarcably true, It's fucking accurate. Every literal day has been about scandal after scandal because of things related to the president. And this became the norm, no other president was like that in the history of the US. You know How much of bulshit is the leader of any nation, specially the most powerfull one, be like this?

the scandal about the covid when he repeatedly lied about covid's severity for months just to confess it was a lie weeks before the end of his presidency. which made the US response way worse than it should have been. this decision alone probably cost hundreds of thousands of american lifes.

That is the most irritating scam ad EVER!!! As long as they donate a dollar a year, they can pay themselves to "clean and sell" the vehicles that they got for free, from charitable minded individuals. So, basically, it is a scam.

I find it highly ironic that Michael Flynn is ranting about the security of our government in that clip...
nearly everything surrounding the Donald is steeped in irony.
That whole section was funny, because the 3 people he showcased from the RNC ranting about the emails were Michael Flynn (which you already mentioned), Chris Christie (didn't get a cabinet position, generally shunned by the administration and also no longer in power in New Jersey) and Reince Priebus (Trump's chief of staff before being fired by the administration).
Are you finding it ironic now, Mr. Krabs?
And 18 months after Flynn's speech he is about "To be locked up"!

why did Bernie lose again?
There was some rigging, but even without it he probably would have lost anyway. Calling himself a communist when running for american office was a bullet in the groin, tbh
He couldn't sway enough of the black vote.
That and the DNC rigging.
When did Bernie called himself a communist (socialist =/= communist)? And check for Arizona voting fraud hearing and california voting fraud.
Because most democratic primary voters are old enough to remember the 1970s and 80s when ethical principled democrats got their asses kicked in 5 out of 6 presidential elections, and then Bill Clinton finally ended the democrats' losing streak. They thought Hillary Clinton was the safer candidate.
Because people didn't vote for him?
Look...
The whole Rest of the world laughs at you americans xD
Especially John Oliver. He's hilarious
you think us smart americans are happy about this?
nope. Denmark or Sweden are way better places to live. Free university education, lower crime rate, less sexism, health insurance... just google it.

Some say Hilary Clinton is still sitting in front of her computer screen to this day.
"We're not gonna be involved in government".
Lmao really Junior?
The disgruntled Bernie Bros are starting to sound like Trump and his fans.
Keep bringing up debunked 'scandals' and crying how everyone is against you, it looks very mature. Meanwhile, the man you claimed to support has come out and accepted his loss, and is gracious and smart enough to throw his support behind Clinton. Maybe try listening to Bernie for once in your lives, because you clearly weren't paying much attention to his words so far.
I probably don't fall under this category because 1) I hold the electoral college and Democratic party at fault for not having Senator Sanders be a choice, rather than Hillary and her campaign, 2) I accept his loss (I just keep the pic because I still support him as a senator) and that Clinton isn't really as bad as a lot of media portrays her, and 3) Many of the other Bernie supporters are annoying the fuck out of me by saying 'Bernie or bust!'; like, it took us so many goddamn years to get this much progress, most of the Justices have a high chance of needing to be replaced in the next 4 years, we already have a House majority of Republicans, and do we really want to undo everything that has happened in the last 30-40 years because they're offended that Sanders wasn't the candidate?
Sorry for that paragraph, I'm just extremely pissed off by disgruntled Bernie supporters.

Oh, that? You do know all that proves was that the DNC was biased against Bernie on account of him being an independent. The DNC doesn't have any actual influence over the votes, you know. Bernie lost, he got over it, so why can't everyone else?

February 2021, we have all FINALLY taken our first collective sigh in four long years. Watching this I don't know how people didn't see what kind of character he had back then. Even more amazed that lots of people still don't see it even now and even after all that has happened. No one, republican or democrat, can honestly say that we are better off now than we were when he started. And no one can honestly deny his culpability, if not in full at least partially.
The only way anybody will be happy with Johns coverage of Hillary is if he says "don't vote for Hillary because she's corrupt". But here's the thing, she's better than trump. He understands that, so of course his work will be biased towards her. People just use the fact that he works for HBO as an excuse to say his points in Hillary don't count because HBO is a top donor. But he truly does believe that Hillary is better!

Try telling that to the immigrants, muslims, and minorities that would have to live with the everyday hate of a Trump administration. I just went canvassing yesterday and the fascist tendencies are Trump are very real. This is such a poorly thought-out argument.
+Shwagg Krumb "He is rich, what the fuck does any of this matter to him?"
Maybe you should take a look at what Donald will fuck up. He wants to make the press more liable for negative coverage. He's basically said "fuck freedom of the press."
My problem is that he claims he is going to present all the facts about Clinton's email scandal, then just goes over it in the most general way. And even the things he does cover are done so incompletely. For example Clinton claims she wanted the ease of using one phone, yet the FBI identified 13 mobile devices she potentially used for email, some of which her staff would destroy with hammers. Instead of clearly showing that she lied, Oliver takes her at her word and just says she was still being irresponsible. Then there's the email she sent advising her staff to remove the classified headers from a document, scan and email it nonsecurely, because their secure fax service was down. That is clear evidence of intent, yet Oliver pretends it's not relevant.
+BornFlunky he wants to enforce libel laws. knowingly making false statements about someone should be punishable
So many people complaining about hilary emails.....and then Ivanka turned around and did THE EXACT SAME THING.

yeah... that's the worst argument for voting for Hillary. "He sucks more"
But he does...he objectively does!
Is it, though? Nobody actually likes Hillary. When both candidates look terrible, you have to pick the lesser of two evils. That's only reasonable.
It's not the worst one, it's the logical one. If you have to choose between someone who has lied a couple of times and once or twice delved into illegal acts, but knows what they are doing, and someone who has lied countless times, has broken the law visibly more times, has done things such as make fun of people for their disabilities, and has promised to do despicable things that could lead to wars (to the point that 50+ Republican foreign advisers, including the former head of the CIA, signed a letter to the American people on why Trump is a danger to foreign affairs), it's pretty clear who the better choice is.
It's true though...
+Pistonrager Actually with a vacant Supreme Court Justice slot (and possibly a few more with potential retirements), the nuclear codes, international relations, our economy, and a host of other things on the line, taking the least worst option isn't so bad when it averts a catastrophic disaster. It's not just that "he sucks more." It's that "she's irritating, but he's a dumpster fire of ethical failings." America would never recover from an infestation of Trump's famous cronyism, embezzlement, willful ignorance, lack of self-restraint, and petty vindictiveness that he has demonstrated many times already.
Yeah, I'll take "irritating."
I love how flynn was so fired up about hillary's emails xD

How can people believe that he's gonna fight the establishment like he's one of the rebels in Star Wars, when that guy robbed that group of girls that sang for him during his rally. Not to mention, how can he say that he's for the working class when he robbed them too! He has thousands of lawsuits a portion of them saying he owes them money. And if you say "well they did a bad job" apparently not bad enough, cause he went back to them. The establishment doesn't like him not because he's a Robin Hood but because he's that mean dad in the movie Matilda.
Oh p.s
Why is it that you want people to believe you, when your completely blind to the faults of your candidate, we're not you man, we can see she's not that good of a person. But we don't have delusions of our candidate like you do.

Wow!! Looking back on this.....John Oliver was a prophet. Man was he speaking the TRUTH!!!!
John Oliver scores once again...
Yup. Sadly people will get butthurt over EVERYTHING.
Maybe if he wasn't so biased. He said putting a country at risk isn't that bad compared to not knowing a political term. The biggest thing he found and went in depth with was Trump Foundation which could arguably be as bad as Clinton Foundation. Scandals are just like lies and what I mean by that is Trump has more of them, but Hilary's are worse.
He wasn't. Look at the video closely.
Most of Hillary's so-called Scandals are unproven... runaway Conspiracy theories... the "Email Scandal"... really??? oooo... She used her own server that was not hacked but the govt server she did not want to use was hacked... ooo. Major Scandal. NOT.
Olaf Lesniak also the Clinton foundation is an actual foundation that actually does good, the trump foundation is practically nothing more than one of trumps attempts to con money and has done nothing for charity.
No mention about Hilary's war on dank memes?

That's actually exactly what I assumed it would be.
I'm so glad to see John share my visceral hate of 1800cars4kids 🤣
Watching republicans complaining about Clinton's emails on a private server is looking a lot funnier given Trump's literal taking of boxes of top secret documents to just a room at his house.
Exactly what I was thinking 🤔
Unreal…
i literally daydream about seeing john oliver in the street and hugging him. i love him so much. never die.
I’d prefer it if RBG had been immortal.
Tired of this one sided crap. I don't like either candidate but John Oliver made it clear that he is supporting Hillary and advises you all to do so as well. He didn't even go into much detail about everything going on with Hillary but exaggerated points about him. And the best part yet is that he has criticized newspapers in the past that he now uses and his sources, which of course are left wing biased. I unsubscribed today.
Do you think John is trying to hide how much he hates Trump?
It's not his job to give you unbiased news, that's not what his show is about. It's his comedic perspective on current events and issues. John would be a sell out to himself if he just spent time bashing Clinton, when he believes Trump is unbelievably more toxic. If you want un-biased news, look somewhere else. John doesn't have to cater to you.
He spent over half the time talking about Hillary's scandals.....
I was going to like this comment then I saw his name
He didn't give much details about the Trump scandals either, he spoke about the scandals of either candidate about the same time (at about 12:50 he starts talking about the Trump scandals and video is 22 mins long) for the scandals so actually he talked about the Clinton ones more in debt than the Trump ones.
He spent more than half the video talking about Hillary. Bye.
Looking back at this in 2022 and hearing michael flynn 3:35 saying that Hillary Clinton "put the national security at very high risk" feels very VERY ironic.
Do you remember the good old days when misappropriating charity funds and passing the buisiness down to his kids was the worst thing he'd done.
