That interview where Trump refuses to give an honest answer and ends up siting down on his desk and pretending to be busy to get the reporter to leave him alone looks like something out of The Office. Even the way it`s shot, with the camera awkwardly lingering on Trump as he fumbles whit his papers is spot on.
I’m sure they’ll work it in all dark-comedy-style when they make the “Narcos”-esque docu-drama about all of the Russian money laundering he did from the 80s to now/2017.
"I don't stand by anything." Words spoken by the President of the United States. That's so chilling, it's absolutely no wonder why we've wound up here.
Every time I come back to it, I lose another 5 IQ points. Like, I ramble and lose the thread all the time. I have a thought cross my mind while monologing, fail to voice that one thought, and continue onward like I actually said it. And even then, half of that direct Trump quote could be completely thrown out and it would still get the point across while still being incoherent, because he keeps repeating himself.

That clip of Trump refusing to answer the question and going to sit at his desk and pretend to do paper work feels like it was taken straight out of The Office.
And when he shoved Montenegro's Prime Minister out of the way to get to the front of the shot. I can't believe I've never made the connection between him and Michael Scott before.
Rewatching this, I remember how concerned I was, and how unhappy I was, about the fact that I didn't know if I was about to deploy or not. That situation with Korea was the icing of the cake. He may have been "trolling" the media, but they certainly weren't thinking about the troops and how he was toying with our futures and emotions, wondering if we were about to go to war. Disgusting.
I was on the USS Ardent watching the election of 2016 and was amazed that, after all the talks about “build a wall” and that John McCain is a “loser because he was captured,” people onboard still rooted for him and cheered when he got elected.
" Judging your success on how bad you make other people feel makes just as much sense as Judging your success as a zoo-keeper by how many bears you Fuck." -John Oliver

Natasel - Acting like you could remove guns is naive at best. Do you know what happened in the 1920s? It involves alcohol. That same thing would happen if you tried to remove it. And also, look at Chicago who has the most gun laws. A gun-less America is fucking impossible
@@bideojames4222 OMFG! I used to say pick a date and you would likely find something he was doing either wrong or illegal. But no it is actually worse. Just finding a date over the past four years it's virtually impossible to find a date where Trump was only involved in one dodgy deed.
My answer to Whataboutism is to say" OH, GOOD! You and I agree that X is a terrible thing no matter which side does it, yes? Or ARE YOU saying X is ok because everyone does it???"
payz hayz Yes, he speaks like an toddler. But he's deregulation businesses across the board. He makes fun of people, but they're the people that deserve it. He appointed dozens of great judges to various levels of federal court and takes a strong stance on immigration. His tax plan is mostly good and would do wonders for American economic growth. I'll admit he has a billion flaws and he's often a nasty, vain, unintelligent buffoon on his God- forsaken Twitter account, but he's making good on my expectations for him as President. Not perfect, but he does the job I voted him in for.
@Carlos Rodriguez Does he? He flip-flops on issues so fast you'd think he was a pancake. His appointments aren't necessarily wise ones. There is no point to a strong stance on immigration given how it was ridiculously hard to immigrate to begin with. His tax plan is a selfish money grab.
Chameleonred5 He is certainly inconsistent on some policy and I always criticize it, but in totality, I'm of the opinion that he's doing a fair job. Also, did you even read his tax plan? He wants to simplify brackets and lower taxes for the middle and lower classes. The business tax goes from around 35% to 20% actually making America competitive with other countries. We have the highest business tax in the industrialized world. So what happens when businesses decide to come back because they cam afford it (and we're their biggest market)? Lower taxes manages to bring in more tax revenue.
Carlos Rodriguez would you defend him if he took a shit on your desk? And I am not the only one wondering this. For that question comes from Anderson Cooper.
John Oliver, you are the sugar that makes this pill, a little easier to swallow. I can stay informed without totally losing my mind! LOVE YOU JOHN OLIVER, THANK YOU FOR PRESERVING WHAT LITTLE IS LEFT OF MY MIND!
The only thing worse than this dumpster fire left burning in the white house are the people who actually defend this buffoon. The dumb-asses above me are prime examples. This is not a news show, no. But the facts presented within are just that, facts. Pull your heads out of your asses, the only reason you should support Trump is if you live in Russia.
Typical conservative who believes anything against Trump is fake news, typical. See how easy that is? Either point out facts or assumptions in this video that are false, or keep making yourself look stupid by blindly delegitimizing good information. Go on, tell me why I'm wrong, tell me why Trump is good for America. I genuinely want to know, because I've spoken with hundreds of Trump supporters and not a single one has been able to raise any points that don't fall apart immediately when you look closely at them. I'm waiting.

I tried my own: Donald j. Trump is going back in a good game but he is a horrible human being to be with the person who can communicate with you for you and your dad to be with the people you want him and you have just got him back right away and he is not going back and he is not sure if it’s going back home or anything else is going back home.
To be fair with the voting us citizens, they have to decide between this appalling man and Hillary... On the land you can decide from millions of brands on the supermarket or amazon, seems a little weak to decide between only this 2 options 🤔🙄
People keep talking about how the younger generation lacks respect but from what I can see there’s a lot of grown men - well into their 50s and 70s - who act like petty teenagers and babies. They need to take off the tie & put on a bib.
Everytime someone claims their children's generation is the worst generation of kids ever, I just ask if perhaps said whiner is part of the worst generation of parents.
I'm not an US citizen nor do I live in US, but I keep up to date with clusterfuck of a politics you have. P.S. Thanks Mr. Oliver and the whole LastWeekTonight for having common sense , funny as hell.
Maybe Trump should have studied basic economics instead of fucking pornstars! And maybe she got a pretty decent sum of money for fucking Jabba The Potus..
Oh good. Another smug Brit telling Americans how to feel. As for Trump pushing the leader of Montenegro out of the way...Trump IS after all the leader of the free world.

My answer to Whataboutism is to say" OH, GOOD! You and I agree that X is a terrible thing no matter which side does it, yes? Or ARE YOU saying X is ok because everyone does it???"
I’ve found that someone who’s go to is whataboutism, you could give them every concession to their argument and try to address whatever bullshit they’re deflecting from, that just fuels them into believing they’re right. “Depressingly effective” is a spot on analysis of it.
This is more important than Trump or even the US. There are things in this video that are universally true in todays world. Everybody should watch it and learn from this.
Exactly. The general term for actual fake news is, well, not addressing it at all. I've never seen the Queen of England hold a press conference to call the nonsense about her secretly being a lizard person fake news.
Take the fraud vote for example and not the mainstream media crap. Anything Trump and his supporters don't agree with they call it fake news. Just like the election.
The sad part is that there are legitimate concerns on the news media and how they operate but trump just shit all over the ability to criticize the media by calling anything he doesn't like "fake news"
@@AgentAika001 yeah especially all the lie and half truths an the fact that the mainstream media now has less then 30% trust in them from the American ppl. But don’t let that liberal ignorance stop u. U were saying. Completely ignore the recounts an the fact that the contested States now have strict voter ID laws and the only person fighting those voter ID laws is Joe Biden the only person fighting the recounts is Joe Biden but please continue with that ignorance
Democrats also use whataboutism. Whats your point? Everything Trump is doing, Obama did. Obama shit on Fox and favored News Stations that kissed his ass during his time as president. He used whataboutism during his speech about Christians during the crusades being just as about as Islam today. As far as trolling goes - Turn to California; The state that says if I have HIV and knowingly fuck someone and infect that the worst I get is a slap on the wrist. Or that Gun Control is a viable solution to gun crime even though Chicago is running rampant with gun crime and murder and they have the strictest gun laws and is been run by democrats for decades. I find it funny people forget everything the democrats do when someone they like is doing it. Keep it up though, if you push these identity politics were going to have a moron as a president for a second term.
I used to be a transcriptionist. Not the medical kind, the kind that types up what people are saying during speeches, videos, stuff like that. I had a client that wanted recordings of some of Trump's speeches ... Worst day of my entire time working at that company ...
theMCdigger Yeah. Can’t bring up anything the sainted Obama or Hillary did, even though we heard “what about Bush?” every time something went wrong in Obama’s presidency. Whataboutism was just fine then.
@@heathergustar638 The purpose of the joke was that none of the audience could shout it out because no one in the audience knows who the tenth president was. That's the joke. That no one knows who John Tyler is.

Whatever happened to the catheter cowboy ads? I've seen a few TH-cam vids where he is mentioned but I never heard how long the ads ran, Trump's reaction if any and if they were unceremoniously pulled. Anybody?
I live in Australia and during the trump presidency, my family and I talked about him so much we had to make a pact to not talk about him anymore. It was just too rage inducing. I couldn’t imagine the level of frustration Americans would have felt if that’s how my family felt in a different fucking country.
They are all the same. Take what these idiots are saying just because they have the R behind the name. Republicans play on the National fear of socialism communism and the punters believe it.
"whatboutism" is not about "muddy the waters" as John said but to point out the blatant hypocrisy and selective outrage. If you were to watch the original clips unedited ....
Matt K Even if you were to assume the whataboutism was justified-that is to say, there is a real double standard at work and not a fabricated or exaggerated one-two wrongs don't make a right. Whataboutism is a subset of the argumentum ad hominem, also known as the Tu Quoque argument, which is LITERALLY a logical fallacy. It does not actually constitute a sound argument.
the media has long been hated in the states, way before trump. I would argue that the left have been far more guilty/successful of delegitimizing their opposition. This is why you see conservatives voices routinely censored in academia and entertainment. Jjames - you missed the point try again
lol making excuses for the fact conservatives A) are not very smart and seldom seek out higher education in the world of academia B) conservatives have no good original ideas, which is why you see such few good plays/movies by coservatives
And he's British none the less. I never thought I'd see the day when one of them did better for our country then a lot of Americans that act like their patriots.
Great show!!! Mister John Oliver! Funny! And very informative!! And making some Great points!!!! Thank you! John. And all your writers! And all staff!!
When pressed 13:43 to explain his comments about President Obama being "sick and bad", Trump flat out refused like a kid...it's funny and sad to watch that this is our President of the United States.
Funnily enough, telling your kids they could grow up to be president is pretty fucking viable at this stage; what with how much has happened, I wouldn't be surprised if an actual toddler ran for president and won.
Are we supposed to never again acknowledge that many people liked her at one point? Hate to pull this card for someone I don't care for either, but we honestly don't treat men like this for similar accusations. We treat them like this for rape.

Thanks iPhone!
Bob Woodward has a print version of "The Trump Tapes" reading his interview answers to questions is just like predictive text. It is one of the hardest read ever
His "whataboutism" explanation is bad. He said something like 'murder is bad... But what about all these people convicted of murder.' This is objectively misleading and doesn't follow in any of the shown clips. The real algorithm is "X is bad, but what about person Y who was never charged?"
“Of course I can read, I’m a master of reading. Some of my very closest friends are experts in reading and their many levels of reading. So don’t take my word word for it, ask anyone and they’ll reply that Donald Trump is the best reader in America, perhaps the best reader of any president.”
Perhaps, but... this is a live audience... and he isn't bashing Trump, Trump's just a controversial person... who does controversial things... who's support base is controversial... who's lies daily about serious issues... who calls himself a troll and proud of being one... and thanks to him, he motivated people to pay closer attention to news and find out what's true and what's actually fake news... who fired the people who were looking into a possible security risk involving him... Honestly I am tired of hearing about him in the news too, but he does things that should be on the news. Just because you're tired of hearing about it doesn't mean you should tune it out if you do.
khm8910 Exactly! This isn't some popular TV series! This is real life! And if ANYONE tells you to stay out of politics, don't listen to them because they are probably Trump supporters themselves.
"I am using the word "work" there so generously I should be able to deduct It as a charitable donation on my taxes" is one of my all time favorite quotes on this show.
"He's had so many terrible moments this year, you probably forgot about many of them." ... ... Yeah.... Sh!z... 2 1/2 years later I've forgotten ALL the terrible Trump moments of 2017. He's leveled up on terrible so many times that it's fracking painful at this point and my greatest fear is now that he could get re-elected.
I think that's most of the planet's worst fear (alongside dying of covid19). Pretty much only Putin and Rocket man and China's dictator are likely to be happy if the man, who couldn't negotiate a beer out of a barkeep in a pub on bald guys drink free night, gets reelected!

6:02 Actually John, you're wrong. He didn't take credit for the term "fake news". He literally took credit for the word "fake". Like, "Fake"... as in the slang term for falsehoods that has been around for *centuries*.
He is at least teaching thinking in an entertaining manner, for which he should receive the accolades he deserves. He provides a tool for critical thinking in bite-sized pieces. I acknowledge the fact that John Oliver is too loud and obnoxious. He definitely is and that makes him hilarious. Try to take it with a grain of salt, its comedy for crying out loud. John Oliver provides the people with what they want, namely entertainment, but even more important he gives the people what they need, a critical voice towards the important topics that need to be addressed. You can't deny this, at least in my perspective. The funny thing is, the people in the US are more likely to listen to a d-bag Brit than a sound American voice (sorry pc people). All in all, I find that he holds an important position in society (as a serious jokester) and should be respected accordingly.
I take it all with a grain of salt...sometimes a lump. I recognize he does some good and can argue a point, but never with a present counter-point. However, he defeats much of the good he does with misguided cynicism. This impacts his followers often into self-defeatist ideals. There is a concept in law which states you cannot come to a court with unclean hands. To convict others when you are guilty yourself. This is a lot of self-defeating dialog...even if entertainment.
Oh...a comedy show...right. Just like all the night talk shows. It's just "comedy" right? It's politics disguised as comedy. You put something out on the world stage...expect it to be scrutinized...or don't put it out there. John Oliver's humorous (apparently), failed logics would be completely destroyed by anyone practiced on counterpoint.
His solutions would be disastrous...he doesn't understand the effectiveness of Trump. Put Shapiro on with Oliver...be the end of the John Oliver show. Hope he invites him on.

I take great comfort in the fact I can see through this bullshit. I take great discomfort in the fact that I may lose my health insurance because other people are too willfully ignorant to vote responsibly.
I've had ObamaCare since inception , ALL I do is pay for my own healthcare plan with my own money AND I work full time 40+ hours a week. Obamacare gives a credit amount but I just end up paying nearly all of it back at tax time. I pay around $160 a month with the lowest tier bronze plan and then I pay more at tax time around $600-700 taken out of my taxes. Obama , Hillary , Donald , they're all in the same boat man they just appear to be opposing each other but they're not. My job has somehow found a loophole to label (full time) workers as flex pay , so they don't have to pay healthcare even though I average more than 40+ hours a week for years. I think it's cheaper for my work to pay the penalty for not offering health benefits to full time workers than actually providing health care package for full time workers. While most of you useful idiots are buying all the brainwashing on network late night shows , Obama, Hillard and Trump are laughing their way to the banks. Trump's plan is just gonna mirror Obama's with some different wording in it , but it's nothing more than a big cash grab. Say I offer you a car for $1,000 , but it's real value is $500, but I don't tell you that and there is no way for you to know that (work with me here this just an example) . And I offer you a $500 credit towards the car if you pay installments , so now the car is only $500 cost with a credit from me of $500 , but with the clause you have to pay portion of that credit out of your taxes at the end of the year. So let's say you pay off the car at $500 by the end of the year but you have to pay a portion of the "Credit" (obamacare) back to me at the end of the year. sO YOU END up paying $300 back out of the $500 credit towards the $1,000 car. So you end up paying $800 for a $500 valued car under the guise of "help from OBAMA/TRUMP/Hillary care . You're under the impression that you're getting help from ObamaCare but really it's a just a clever way to tack on added cost to healthcare under the guises "healthcare for all". Makes sense yet ? It's just a cash grab. It's like if I started a program which releases sulfuric acid into the atmosphere but I called it the "Clear Air Act" and didn't mention the acid part. See how it sounds all pretty and justifiable ?
This is exactly why we need a mandatory basic philosophy course in highschool. Kids need to be taught about logical fallacies and cognitive biases so that they can recognize these things in an argument.
Also, a media literacy and critical thinking class. It's so weird when you delve into this "alternative media ecosystem" and Trumpist forums, and it's just full of people ignoring huge chunks of information/context about each story and parroting each other's easily debunked falsehoods and forcefully twisting the president's words until they can convince themselves that he's some kind of mega-brain genius they can worship, no matter the amount of dumb shit he says/tweets... it's just utterly mindboggling.
Hue: Yeah absolutely, critical thinking skills are something that needs to be strongly emphasized as well. In the same vein, I think there needs to be a change in how people view arguments as having a winner and a loser. It's not about winning, it's about making sure that your opinions and beliefs accurately reflect the real world, and we need to be able to adjust our views when new evidence presents itself.
Aziraphale686, I agree. I also think it needs to be made very clear that _disagreement_ and _disrespect_ are two very different things. Too many people seem to regard someone having an opinion they don't as some form of insult. It makes having an exchange of ideas really difficult. And there's also the fact that, depending on the context you first learn about something in, it could mean something very different to you than to someone else. If you get your news from the kinds of placed Hue Manatee mentioned, you're practically speaking a different language from people who get their news elsewhere.
Well there are a lot of dumb people out there. There should be a test and if you fail, you go back to school or some sh*t cause I am sick of all the idiots or indifference out there.
It's really sad and disgusting, but unfortunately, not unbelievable! We espouse the profound message, "Anyone can grow up to become the President of the United States"!

This segment is still just as relevant today as it was when it first aired in Nov. of 2017...
Agreed.
Yep
Actually I’d rather have someone being paid money to make people laugh actually make me laugh. Not once did I in this clip. He can have an opinion but don’t shove it into every show! We know, orangemanbad.
@@tommym.3 Such a ripoff, right? I mean someone who gets paid to be comical should at least make you chuckle... Especially when you're watching free clips of his stuff on youtube.
Well, that is what he does, and it is not laugh out loud funny, go to Blazing Saddles for that, but he is funny and makes us smile and keeps us informed, I hate regular news now, most are lame. @@tommym.3
That clip of Trump refusing to answer the question and going to sit at his desk and pretend to do paper work feels like it was taken straight out of The Office.
Absolutely! David Brents yankee cousin hehe.
Brent - Scott for president!
HE IS LIKE A CHILD
And when he shoved Montenegro's Prime Minister out of the way to get to the front of the shot. I can't believe I've never made the connection between him and Michael Scott before.
Oh my god you're right.....
Rewatching this, I remember how concerned I was, and how unhappy I was, about the fact that I didn't know if I was about to deploy or not. That situation with Korea was the icing of the cake. He may have been "trolling" the media, but they certainly weren't thinking about the troops and how he was toying with our futures and emotions, wondering if we were about to go to war. Disgusting.
He declared war on 3 nuclear ready countries in social media. You're exactly right.
I was on the USS Ardent watching the election of 2016 and was amazed that, after all the talks about “build a wall” and that John McCain is a “loser because he was captured,” people onboard still rooted for him and cheered when he got elected.
But...but I thought you guys were out of bullets, and he finally got you some?
It wasn't just the media, Trump didn't care either.
He Trolled EVERYONE that he tricked into going to the Capitol. Woahhhh Too soon ?? LOL

@@bideojames4222 OMFG! I used to say pick a date and you would likely find something he was doing either wrong or illegal. But no it is actually worse. Just finding a date over the past four years it's virtually impossible to find a date where Trump was only involved in one dodgy deed.
I know we shouldn’t trust a single source cause you know “fake news” but good luck proving that 940 things that he said or did were fake or false
My answer to Whataboutism is to say" OH, GOOD! You and I agree that X is a terrible thing no matter which side does it, yes? Or ARE YOU saying X is ok because everyone does it???"
@@johntack1049 thank you for showing us an amazing example of "what aboutism".
Six years on this show is timeless. Wish I'd known you then, John Oliver. I know you now. Thank you.

Whataboutism!
A KJB tactic that Putin knows well!
(Wonder where Trump got it?)

“....We are familiar enough with his speech patterns that we get the basic gist...” Don’t we say the exact same thing about most toddlers??
My toddlers spoke better than him
yes, unfortunately yes
I've met toddlers more articulate than trump sadly lol
P
As a former speech therapist...yes you're Right 👍
You have to admit that predictive text segment was pretty gold
payz hayz Yes, he speaks like an toddler. But he's deregulation businesses across the board. He makes fun of people, but they're the people that deserve it. He appointed dozens of great judges to various levels of federal court and takes a strong stance on immigration. His tax plan is mostly good and would do wonders for American economic growth. I'll admit he has a billion flaws and he's often a nasty, vain, unintelligent buffoon on his God- forsaken Twitter account, but he's making good on my expectations for him as President. Not perfect, but he does the job I voted him in for.
payz hayz BUT HILLARY
@Carlos Rodriguez Does he? He flip-flops on issues so fast you'd think he was a pancake. His appointments aren't necessarily wise ones. There is no point to a strong stance on immigration given how it was ridiculously hard to immigrate to begin with. His tax plan is a selfish money grab.
Chameleonred5 He is certainly inconsistent on some policy and I always criticize it, but in totality, I'm of the opinion that he's doing a fair job.
Also, did you even read his tax plan? He wants to simplify brackets and lower taxes for the middle and lower classes. The business tax goes from around 35% to 20% actually making America competitive with other countries. We have the highest business tax in the industrialized world. So what happens when businesses decide to come back because they cam afford it (and we're their biggest market)? Lower taxes manages to bring in more tax revenue.
Carlos Rodriguez would you defend him if he took a shit on your desk? And I am not the only one wondering this. For that question comes from Anderson Cooper.
"Just because Jared Kushner is smarter than you, doesn't mean he's smart"

"I don't stand by anything" -Donald J Trump
That may be the most honest thing Trump has said while President of the United States of America.
Shhhhhhhh we don’t talk about that
And the most honest thing he ever will say. PERIOD.
If you don’t stand for something surely you will fall for anything.
How's that for irony?
what does it actually mean to stand by something in that term?
John Oliver, you are the sugar that makes this pill, a little easier to swallow. I can stay informed without totally losing my mind! LOVE YOU JOHN OLIVER, THANK YOU FOR PRESERVING WHAT LITTLE IS LEFT OF MY MIND!
The only thing worse than this dumpster fire left burning in the white house are the people who actually defend this buffoon. The dumb-asses above me are prime examples.
This is not a news show, no. But the facts presented within are just that, facts. Pull your heads out of your asses, the only reason you should support Trump is if you live in Russia.
Typical conservative who believes anything against Trump is fake news, typical.
See how easy that is? Either point out facts or assumptions in this video that are false, or keep making yourself look stupid by blindly delegitimizing good information.
Go on, tell me why I'm wrong, tell me why Trump is good for America. I genuinely want to know, because I've spoken with hundreds of Trump supporters and not a single one has been able to raise any points that don't fall apart immediately when you look closely at them.
I'm waiting.

I'm glad this still pops up in my TH-cam recommendations. It should be required viewing for every person of voting age.
Watching this four years later, it’s WORSE than we remembered. John Oliver sounded the alarm five years ago. He saw everything that was coming.

@@johnsaylor1583 your absolutely insane if you think Biden is a better president. Inflation is through the roof. Unemployment is bad and the guy doesn't even realise he's president. You just refuse to see you made a terrible choice that's what your issue is

I rewatch this whenever I need to stay sane after listening to my family praise Trump for a few hours
I find it to be one of the mysteries of the universe how people fall for his nothingness.
At least you get it, and that’s all that matters.
Im right there with you. Everytime i have to go to a family dinner and have to listen to all of them truly praising the absolute nothing that Trump has done....i go home hungry. Simply becuase i cant eat through my teeth gritting so hard i fear they may shatter ......

I love the cowboy I just love him so much I can't even express it in words. I just think he should be in every commercial ever.
I'm really glad Catheter Cowboy is a reoccurring character for this show. Everything about it is amazing.
This is entirely unrelated to the topic of this video, but John just going "No." after that Fox and Friends clip is one of the funniest things that's ever been on this show and I have no idea why.
It cracks me up too, it’s the timing and delivery and also the underlying reality that No is absolutely the only response to that

I HAVE BEEN SAYING THAT HE SOUNDS LIKE PREDICTIVE TEXT OUTPUT FOR MONTHS!!! THANK YOU!!!!!
Has anyone really been far as decided to use even go want to do look more like? You've got to be kidding me. I've been further even more decided to use even go need to do look more as anyone can. Can you really be far even as decided half as much to use go wish for that?
Oh. My. Gawd. I was slack jawed, it's the same... and yes, it's terrifying.
PocketBrain, I can barely hear you! Can you speak up?
I tried my own:
Donald j. Trump is going back in a good game but he is a horrible human being to be with the person who can communicate with you for you and your dad to be with the people you want him and you have just got him back right away and he is not going back and he is not sure if it’s going back home or anything else is going back home.
"A horrible sign that the disease is spreading", hearing this in 2020 is really discomforting
I agree.
Yup. React to reactions.
We should never forget these moments, but he try's to make you with the continuing noise, he creates everyday. History won't.
To be fair with the voting us citizens, they have to decide between this appalling man and Hillary... On the land you can decide from millions of brands on the supermarket or amazon, seems a little weak to decide between only this 2 options 🤔🙄
Funny when it was said: 👍
Funny now: 👎
People keep talking about how the younger generation lacks respect but from what I can see there’s a lot of grown men - well into their 50s and 70s - who act like petty teenagers and babies. They need to take off the tie & put on a bib.
Honestly, if you tthink about it, the tie is just a slimmer and longer bib.
Everytime someone claims their children's generation is the worst generation of kids ever, I just ask if perhaps said whiner is part of the worst generation of parents.
Don’t forget that a lot of them are pedophiles and perverts as well.
Not a lot. Just a little.

I'm not an US citizen nor do I live in US, but I keep up to date with clusterfuck of a politics you have. P.S. Thanks Mr. Oliver and the whole LastWeekTonight for having common sense , funny as hell.
Even though I'm not American this is depressing to watch.
Because John Oliver IS depressing. Confusing dark misinterpretation with critical thinking skills. Very duncy and bitter guy.
Get a life, Derrick.
Mary S. Because she is in porn? Good description of porn though.
Maybe Trump should have studied basic economics instead of fucking pornstars! And maybe she got a pretty decent sum of money for fucking Jabba The Potus..
It’s even more depressing living here in the states.

My answer to Whataboutism is to say" OH, GOOD! You and I agree that X is a terrible thing no matter which side does it, yes? Or ARE YOU saying X is ok because everyone does it???"
That’s actually a really good comeback. Although I’m say “or ARE YOU saying x is ok because it’s something YOU’D do?”
My rebuttal is what about whataboutism?
Yep. But I say "so your mom taught you that two wrongs DO make a right? That's not what my mom and Jesus taught me..."
I’ve found that someone who’s go to is whataboutism, you could give them every concession to their argument and try to address whatever bullshit they’re deflecting from, that just fuels them into believing they’re right. “Depressingly effective” is a spot on analysis of it.

I missed this a year ago. This should be mandatory viewing at every high school and college in the country most especially in the South
This is more important than Trump or even the US. There are things in this video that are universally true in todays world. Everybody should watch it and learn from this.
The phrase ‘fake news’ is the political equivalent to ‘ nar nar nar, I’m not listening’.
Exactly. The general term for actual fake news is, well, not addressing it at all. I've never seen the Queen of England hold a press conference to call the nonsense about her secretly being a lizard person fake news.
Take the fraud vote for example and not the mainstream media crap. Anything Trump and his supporters don't agree with they call it fake news. Just like the election.
The sad part is that there are legitimate concerns on the news media and how they operate but trump just shit all over the ability to criticize the media by calling anything he doesn't like "fake news"
@@AgentAika001 yeah especially all the lie and half truths an the fact that the mainstream media now has less then 30% trust in them from the American ppl. But don’t let that liberal ignorance stop u. U were saying.

That assumes Kelly has any form of strategy coming in. She’s just braindead. See bowling green massacre for proof.
kellywise
Democrats also use whataboutism. Whats your point? Everything Trump is doing, Obama did. Obama shit on Fox and favored News Stations that kissed his ass during his time as president. He used whataboutism during his speech about Christians during the crusades being just as about as Islam today. As far as trolling goes - Turn to California; The state that says if I have HIV and knowingly fuck someone and infect that the worst I get is a slap on the wrist. Or that Gun Control is a viable solution to gun crime even though Chicago is running rampant with gun crime and murder and they have the strictest gun laws and is been run by democrats for decades. I find it funny people forget everything the democrats do when someone they like is doing it. Keep it up though, if you push these identity politics were going to have a moron as a president for a second term.
I used to be a transcriptionist. Not the medical kind, the kind that types up what people are saying during speeches, videos, stuff like that. I had a client that wanted recordings of some of Trump's speeches ... Worst day of my entire time working at that company ...
Oh, you poor thing.

Yeah well. You make sense if you’re an argumentative bot.

To those using What aboutism, I just reply to them : "Ok, but my original question still stands", and stare them down.
But what about benghazi, what about her emails?

THANK YOU for pointing out the “whataboutism”!
"whatboutism" is not about "muddy the waters" as John said but to point out the blatant hypocrisy and selective outrage. If you were to watch the original clips unedited ....
What about delegitimizing media though?
Matt K
Even if you were to assume the whataboutism was justified-that is to say, there is a real double standard at work and not a fabricated or exaggerated one-two wrongs don't make a right. Whataboutism is a subset of the argumentum ad hominem, also known as the Tu Quoque argument, which is LITERALLY a logical fallacy. It does not actually constitute a sound argument.
the media has long been hated in the states, way before trump. I would argue that the left have been far more guilty/successful of delegitimizing their opposition. This is why you see conservatives voices routinely censored in academia and entertainment.
Jjames - you missed the point try again
lol making excuses for the fact conservatives A) are not very smart and seldom seek out higher education in the world of academia B) conservatives have no good original ideas, which is why you see such few good plays/movies by coservatives

Tony Wang congratz you can hear words then type them out... would you at least change SOME words when you just copy what was said?
vick3d no. They are saying, that any internet troll is now good enough to be president because of the lower standards made by Trump.

His "whataboutism" explanation is bad. He said something like 'murder is bad... But what about all these people convicted of murder.' This is objectively misleading and doesn't follow in any of the shown clips. The real algorithm is "X is bad, but what about person Y who was never charged?"

Michael 48 now you know how some of us feel about Trump supporters.
Fifty 1 Fifty it's not hard to film a guy bash trump with fake laugh tracks
Perhaps, but... this is a live audience... and he isn't bashing Trump, Trump's just a controversial person... who does controversial things... who's support base is controversial... who's lies daily about serious issues... who calls himself a troll and proud of being one... and thanks to him, he motivated people to pay closer attention to news and find out what's true and what's actually fake news... who fired the people who were looking into a possible security risk involving him... Honestly I am tired of hearing about him in the news too, but he does things that should be on the news. Just because you're tired of hearing about it doesn't mean you should tune it out if you do.
khm8910 Exactly! This isn't some popular TV series! This is real life! And if ANYONE tells you to stay out of politics, don't listen to them because they are probably Trump supporters themselves.

Sh!z... 2 1/2 years later I've forgotten ALL the terrible Trump moments of 2017. He's leveled up on terrible so many times that it's fracking painful at this point and my greatest fear is now that he could get re-elected.
It's terrifying!
I think that's most of the planet's worst fear (alongside dying of covid19). Pretty much only Putin and Rocket man and China's dictator are likely to be happy if the man, who couldn't negotiate a beer out of a barkeep in a pub on bald guys drink free night, gets reelected!
Me too! Thankfully I do feel a little bit better with our Democratic ticket I feel like those two are a good team and that they can take him on so I am really hoping that mute the United States does not fuck it up this time!!! There is definitely more hope in the biden/Harris than there was for the Hillary/whoever the fuck that guy was that nobody knows
ToxicGinger yeah, we can’t let him get re-elected! 4 more years of lies!
Right, he handed us like 5 million beers and one up'd himself EVERY time.
Not only would an iPhone give better speeches, it would have access to accurate information.

Trump has access to accurate information, he just doesn't give a shit.

Actually John, you're wrong. He didn't take credit for the term "fake news". He literally took credit for the word "fake". Like, "Fake"... as in the slang term for falsehoods that has been around for *centuries*.
+Gregory Huerta
Dude, you got ENGRISH wrong
That’s what I heard too. I was like “is he really saying he coined the word fake?...is..is he serious?”
Gregory Huerta
well, in this argument. I can argue that trump is the age of 70 if it was slang.
So much worse
BX3 even more pathetic
fuck it is all happening again.
That old cowboy might one day be our last hope.
Eliphas Leary I am so glad not to be American, but I feel sorry for the US having a president that makes every other country joke about the USA.
Really? Why because you probably bash the media, call it fake news but believe all the crap that Breibart and fox spews about Hillary .
Eliphas Leary a true American hero, real as Ronald Reagan... Real-er maybe
I think he already is...
Eliphas Leary or our president
John Oliver does the impossible ~ entertains us while teaching Critical Thinking Skills.
He is teaching you selective thinking skills...actually, that is not a skill.
He is at least teaching thinking in an entertaining manner, for which he should receive the accolades he deserves. He provides a tool for critical thinking in bite-sized pieces. I acknowledge the fact that John Oliver is too loud and obnoxious. He definitely is and that makes him hilarious. Try to take it with a grain of salt, its comedy for crying out loud. John Oliver provides the people with what they want, namely entertainment, but even more important he gives the people what they need, a critical voice towards the important topics that need to be addressed. You can't deny this, at least in my perspective. The funny thing is, the people in the US are more likely to listen to a d-bag Brit than a sound American voice (sorry pc people). All in all, I find that he holds an important position in society (as a serious jokester) and should be respected accordingly.
I take it all with a grain of salt...sometimes a lump. I recognize he does some good and can argue a point, but never with a present counter-point. However, he defeats much of the good he does with misguided cynicism. This impacts his followers often into self-defeatist ideals. There is a concept in law which states you cannot come to a court with unclean hands. To convict others when you are guilty yourself. This is a lot of self-defeating dialog...even if entertainment.
Oh...a comedy show...right. Just like all the night talk shows. It's just "comedy" right? It's politics disguised as comedy. You put something out on the world stage...expect it to be scrutinized...or don't put it out there. John Oliver's humorous (apparently), failed logics would be completely destroyed by anyone practiced on counterpoint.
His solutions would be disastrous...he doesn't understand the effectiveness of Trump. Put Shapiro on with Oliver...be the end of the John Oliver show. Hope he invites him on.
Anyone here after the 2020 election?
It'll be nice to refer to the Trump presidency in the past tense.
Yeah, we actually DID get him this time! 🙌
@@TheAdrift We were finally tired of winning.
What a relief. It feels so good to know the nightmare is just about over. The Europeans are over-joyed that the US has finally come to its senses.
Unless the dumbass keeps not acknowledging his loss. he will never learn

I think that I’m in love with John Oliver. His personality is just perfection 🥹
John Tyler (1790-1862) served as America's 10th president from 1841 to 1845
Yahqas Kaluso I came to the comments just to find this
Yahqas Kaluso are you sure
Yeah he's sure. Tyler was Harrison's vice president (Tippecanoe and Tyler too).
So sad that no one knew this
Fake history. Sad! Fuzziwizard was a great presidant.
"I don't stand by anything." Donald Trump
It's almost like it's every marriage of his.
It is kind of disturbing that we laugh about this horror just to survive it.
I wouldn’t call it horror. Just one huge plethora of jokes.
Trump ain't that bad
Jumpboy5100 do you even watch these videos?
@@tokensark2663 yeah he is as corrupt as all the other politicians. The media just has a weird fascination with hating him. I dont like trump but seriously, it's been 4 years saying he is going to run the country into the ground and hes done the opposite.
Jumpboy5100 wait...was that a joke or.../s please? You’re clearly not watching these videos if you think people have a “fascination” of his failures like they aren’t genuinely frightening.
I only discovered John Oliver this year. What I regret most about that is my late wife Gloria and I would have laughed our asses off together over his show. I'm sorry she never saw it.Bill Conwell, Slava Ukraine. Peace Out
i started watching these during the pandemic and i come back all the time, theyre hilarious
11/17 Trump: "I don't stand by anything"
3/20 Trump: "I have total authority." "I am not responsible."
Trump is conflicted and psychotic. He needs a G.E.D -or a psychiatrist!
He clearly needs to be removed from office!!
I hope he gets put in prison. Not in a psychiatric hospital. Prison sounds more deserved for him.
Well, to be fair, Trump is criminally irresponsible.

I work with dementia patients and I've been able to follow their logic easier. This just made me nauseous.
Damn.
Ditto! Even someone having a severe sundowns episode makes more sense that that orange buffoon!
@Noble Phantazm We were talking about trump, which if you were smart, you would have figured out. Seeing as you're obviously a trump supporter, you lack even the most common of sense and logic
@Noble Phantazm are you sure you're not talking about Republicans?
I work with adolescent addicts and was thinking the same thing. We're in trouble.
Damn, i seriously love that montenegro pm shove. it was hilarious af, watching trump feel so proud of himself. its reminiscent of watching a child after making his/her first poop in the toilet.
Alan Choi Chang .... i know this is 2 months late, but i just read your comment ... It deserves WAY more likes !!! I literally laughed OUT LOUD ! : D
Donnie gets off on the idea that he is a savior of the people which he only surrounds himself with people who kiss his ass (seriously he had a cabinet meeting where he had his cabinet praise him to start the meeting)
I just love seeing Orban shuffle in the background on his stumpy little legs.
I think maybe that’s a bit harsh...seems more like a 10 year old pushing a kid off the swings and declaring himself ‘king of the playground and my dad can beat up your dad’
Good thing for him (~~and for us~~) that was the president of new style Montenegro. Pushing an old style Montenegrin... would be a BAAAAD move.
The black dude behind Trump at 1:22 turning his head when Trump said "they are going to clean the coal" is priceless!
It makes my heart warm to see this trending in number one
Your cold-blooded heart?

John Oliver saves my sanity. Thank you. Sometimes I'm jealous of him because I want to do what he's doing. But that's just more flattery. Love ya dude and all the staff writers and crew. Seriously. Thank you to everybody who is a part of the show, even dumb corporate conglomerate and net neutrality sell out HBO. I'm rewatching this episode and still appreciate it.....and omg the use of the word "alt-left,' Antifa were the only defenders that day. I also love Oliver's deconstruction of the fascist president's vernacular and the pushing clip "Look how proud of himself he is, look how proud." I love you, John. I don't care if you're British, I'll still give you a hug if I ever meet you.
I hate that Trump makes me look back on the Bush years with fond nostalgia.
Me too.
Well said. I complained for 8 years how Bush was the worst Prez ever. I didn't know what the hell I was talking about.
Say what you want about Bush, he genuinely loved America and he genuinely wanted to be a good president.
It's only fonder if Bush and Cheney had gone to jail
It definitely makes me look back on the Obama years in that way.
Just discovered J.O.
This is my new binge.
I envy you having all his wonderfulness in front of you to enjoy for the first time!
I take great comfort in the fact I can see through this bullshit. I take great discomfort in the fact that I may lose my health insurance because other people are too willfully ignorant to vote responsibly.
Or not vote
I've had ObamaCare since inception , ALL I do is pay for my own healthcare plan with my own money AND I work full time 40+ hours a week.
Obamacare gives a credit amount but I just end up paying nearly all of it back at tax time.
I pay around $160 a month with the lowest tier bronze plan and then I pay more at tax time around $600-700 taken out of my taxes.
Obama , Hillary , Donald , they're all in the same boat man they just appear to be opposing each other but they're not.
My job has somehow found a loophole to label (full time) workers as flex pay , so they don't have to pay healthcare even though I average more than 40+ hours a week for years.
I think it's cheaper for my work to pay the penalty for not offering health benefits to full time workers than actually providing health care package for full time workers.
While most of you useful idiots are buying all the brainwashing on network late night shows , Obama, Hillard and Trump are laughing their way to the banks.
Trump's plan is just gonna mirror Obama's with some different wording in it , but it's nothing more than a big cash grab.
Say I offer you a car for $1,000 , but it's real value is $500, but I don't tell you that and there is no way for you to know that (work with me here this just an example) .
And I offer you a $500 credit towards the car if you pay installments , so now the car is only $500 cost with a credit from me of $500 , but with the clause you have to pay portion of that credit out of your taxes at the end of the year.
So let's say you pay off the car at $500 by the end of the year but you have to pay a portion of the "Credit" (obamacare) back to me at the end of the year. sO YOU END up paying $300 back out of the $500 credit towards the $1,000 car.
So you end up paying $800 for a $500 valued car under the guise of "help from OBAMA/TRUMP/Hillary care . You're under the impression that you're getting help from ObamaCare but really it's a just a clever way to tack on added cost to healthcare under the guises "healthcare for all".
Makes sense yet ? It's just a cash grab.
It's like if I started a program which releases sulfuric acid into the atmosphere but I called it the "Clear Air Act" and didn't mention the acid part.
See how it sounds all pretty and justifiable ?
Yeah. Reads about right.
Why would you lose your healthcare? Do you not work?
The government can not keep you from healthcare without due process. You're not "losing". Certainly not any right.
This is exactly why we need a mandatory basic philosophy course in highschool. Kids need to be taught about logical fallacies and cognitive biases so that they can recognize these things in an argument.
Aziraphale686 but he republicans wouldn’t allow it. Think about how many supporters they would lose!
Also, a media literacy and critical thinking class. It's so weird when you delve into this "alternative media ecosystem" and Trumpist forums, and it's just full of people ignoring huge chunks of information/context about each story and parroting each other's easily debunked falsehoods and forcefully twisting the president's words until they can convince themselves that he's some kind of mega-brain genius they can worship, no matter the amount of dumb shit he says/tweets... it's just utterly mindboggling.
Philosophy is mandatory in high school in many countries.. Here in Portugal you have philosophy in 10th grade as one of the basic mandatory classes.
Hue: Yeah absolutely, critical thinking skills are something that needs to be strongly emphasized as well. In the same vein, I think there needs to be a change in how people view arguments as having a winner and a loser. It's not about winning, it's about making sure that your opinions and beliefs accurately reflect the real world, and we need to be able to adjust our views when new evidence presents itself.
Aziraphale686, I agree. I also think it needs to be made very clear that _disagreement_ and _disrespect_ are two very different things. Too many people seem to regard someone having an opinion they don't as some form of insult. It makes having an exchange of ideas really difficult.
And there's also the fact that, depending on the context you first learn about something in, it could mean something very different to you than to someone else. If you get your news from the kinds of placed Hue Manatee mentioned, you're practically speaking a different language from people who get their news elsewhere.
I was gonna say how the chubby guy on Fox news looks like Dean Cain but then I realized it is.... Dean... Cain =\
Oh snap!...is that Dean Cain? smh
Lowback, ah shit! I thought the same thing and realize you are right. Well my Monday sucks more now.
I would love to have seen these cowboy catheter ads air in realtime on fox!
lol Fox news sound like children. "Yeah I hit him but what about him being mean?" Thoroughly unconvincing and pathetic.
No, but that's the scary part. It's convincing people.
Well there are a lot of dumb people out there. There should be a test and if you fail, you go back to school or some sh*t cause I am sick of all the idiots or indifference out there.
Better lessons in critical thinking in schools goes against both parties agendas, then Trumps and Clintons of this world would all be fucked.
Tre G JUST THE OPPOSITE, CHILD G. YOU"RE FUCKED UP WALKER.
Tre G WALKER.
The whole speech quoted at 3:30 and you remember when Trump said he has the "best words".
It was what he said immediately before that I found funniest ... "I know words..."
He has the best words. He just never figured out how to put them together.
To be fair, he never claimed to have the best syntax
It's really sad and disgusting, but unfortunately, not unbelievable!
We espouse the profound message, "Anyone can grow up to become the President of the United States"!
3:38 when you have a 750 word page paper and you’re just talking in circles to fulfill the word count requirement
Elexess Ashley I have a faint idea that you tried to do it 😁😁😁😁
