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.

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".
Currently May 2020, you underestimated the number of Trump's raisins. :(

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
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.
A Blind Trust is how his supporters vote.

Looks like nobody actually answered your question, but yes, Snopes is possibly the most trustworthy website on the internet. They have amazing investigative journalists that look for nothing but the facts. Those "emails" were completely false.
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?

John is competing with the Simpsons for the most accidental prophecies at this point.

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!!

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.
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
4 years later and we still dont have answers for the Swiss file transfer
Abandon all hope, ye who enter the comment section

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?

Why couldn't you Americans just feel the Bern?
sorry about us capitalist pigs not understand how to politics
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 ;)
I like to think they’re still finding raisins in the studio to this day.
Oh god, probably
"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."
How astute of John to predict that my Dad would be texting the letter Q a lot recently
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
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...
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...
John Oliver single-handedly saving the raisin industry
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
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.
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...
HBO: How many raisins do you need?
John: Yes
Man, that Michael Flynn footage didn't age well...
Yeeep.
Yep
TheTaff512 Yep
2018, againg worse by the day
TheTaff512 lol
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 TH-cam 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
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.
It’s crazy watching this almost 5 years later. He wasn’t kidding about those raisins.
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.
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.

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?
"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...

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.

@@martingoldfreed2627 Not really, maybe it's just because you only watch these TH-cam 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.
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"!

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 TH-cam 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?
If I was on the fence before, John Oliver just sealed it for me. I'm voting for Hillary. No doubt

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?

"We're not gonna be involved in government".
Lmao really Junior?
Dads texting us the letter Q 10 times in a row has a whole new meaning in 2021.
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.
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.
call me a nut..but what if trump is helping hilaary get elected by acting like a moron...
I don't think Trump is acting, the Yam is just that uninformed and seems not to care.I
100% buying that. That thought popped into my head a couple days ago.
I can't believe he didn't talk about the fact that those kids can't even play their instruments.
My dog loves when John waives his hands like a madman
watching in 2017 like: HE ACTUALLY PUT THE FINANCES IN THE TRUST OF IVANKA, DONALD JR, AND ERIC AHAHAHAHAHAHAH *cries internally*
My favorite part is watching Don Jr say "we're not going to be involved in government" Then they are all involved in government.
Watching in 2018: given the massive resignation surge in the White House, be prepared for Eric, Don Jr. and Ivanka to take actual government positions pretty soon.
+Lona (^.^) - More and more, yeah. Just a few presidents ago they had a dimwit whose primary qualification was "Well, my daddy was president!" ...Still the world's dumbest way to select a leader. =_=;
andie authers better than potentiol corrupt officials who screw little kids in hillarys child sex cult.
T.M Sources pls (seriously this is a new one to me)

It is crazy how much shit a person can do in order for me, and probably also you, to have completely forgotten about it. A bit over 4 years ago, this dude used charitable donations to settle his own business lawsuits, and I had to re-discover this!
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…
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?
HAHAHAH watching this after Flynn's resignation. So precious
Javier Lorenzana what about after the muller thing?
Javier Lorenzana right😥
"He [Trump] is quantifiably worse" Your 2-party option is absolutely horrible.
trump wasnt even the winner of the popular vote, he won by technicality
system broke
The “audit” should’ve ended by now, no tax returns
How dare he attack, raisins like that, I love raisins in my oatmeal cookies! lol!
I agree i like raisins, he should make a point where in half of cookie is a worm so either should he eat the other half or throw out the whole cookie ??...Trump is pretty much that kind of worm.
He should have used something like corn flakes.
+jannmtube i love corn flakes.
he should have used cranberrys... and you know they are horrible if you tasted a natural cranberry
Kumquats would have been good.
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
Trump: we’re gonna have so many raisins that you’ll say “please no more raisins”
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.
Oh yeah, Hillary's emails. This was before a number of Trump's people started doing the same thing as her. Yeesh, it's incredible how much more stuff has been revealed about Trump and company since he was elected. And oh man, saying his kids would have nothing to do with the government? Watching this video in 2018 is really freaky.
You understand there is enough public evidence to, BY LAW, ban Hillary from ever holding office, right? The fact she was never punished when others have done far less and been punished heavily is astounding.
Sun Tzu
I agree, let anyone else do half of what Hillary did and I guarantee they'd either be locked up right now or going through court proceedings to eventually being locked up.
I honestly can't believe Oliver or anyone else that watched this episode thinks what Trump did is worse than what Hillary did. Say for arguments sake, everything spoken of in this episode is true on both sides. That means Trump probably embezzled money from Trump University, took illegal money from his dad (I may have details of this wrong as I don't remember exactly what it was his dad was involved with). He failed to disclose his taxes, saying he couldn't because he was being audited, which is not true but also not illegal, just looks bad.
On the other hand, Hillary was taking classified documents, transferring them to an unclassified server, which at the worst could be looked into for treason but most likely wouldn't be charged with treason. But at the very least, should have been stripped of her classified status (which considering she was running for President, would cause alarm and should disqualify her for being able to run as she proved she can not be trusted with classified/sensitive data). There's the whole Benghazi incident, which is amazing that kind of went out of site out of mind with her not being held accountable. Then there's the whole shady business with Uranium One. The Clinton Foundation was given massive "donations" from Russia that shortly after was approved by the State Department to purchase Uranium One, during which time Hillary was the Secretary of State, yet they say she wasn't involved. I call b.s. on that. There may not be a paper trail showing her involvement but anyone who truly thinks she wasn't involved is truly naive.
Also during all of this, there were emails recovered from the Clinton server showing Obama was aware of the Clinton email server and over looked it. There are also documents showing Obama was aware of all the details of the Uranium One deal and helped push the deal through. So both Hillary and Obama have ties to Russia involving millions of dollars.
Another interesting piece of info that got lost in the shuffle. At the time Obama was elected for his first term, his net worth was $1.3 million. During his 8 years he drew a salary of $400,000 a year. He did have a couple of book deals that earned him a few more million. He also had investments that might have earned a few million as well. But when he left office in 2016, his net worth was $40 million. So his net worth went up about 40X while in office. Knowing that he was aware and helped push through the Uranium One deal with Russia and that Russia "donated" significant amounts of money to the Clinton Foundation, my personal opinion and also the opinion of many others that have looked at these facts, it appears as if there was some very shady stuff going on and I would wager that Obama made a significant amount of money by helping Russia in the acquisition of Uranium One.
And with all of that, Democrats want to talk about Trumps taxes and unsubstantiated claims he colluded with Russia during the election.
In my opinion, it seems as if certain Democrats including but not limited to Hillary and Obama were playing a "shell game" and got attention off of themselves and their dealings with Russia and got the attention on Trump and Russia. And even if the claims against Trump and Russia were true, it is nothing compared to the entire shady business of the Uranium One deal.
And what percentage of Hillary voters knows or cares about any of this? Zero. Because they are ALL dumb as bricks. I have yet to met even one single Hillary voter who was capable of learning from stimulus or reacting to it; meeting the very basic criteria of consciousness in doing so. Literally too fucking stupid to be viable voters.
Dont take the name of one of the brightest man that ever existed to spew such bullshit on the internet . its an insult .
Madison Brooke Ah yes, the classic "What-about"-ism of Fox News. Because Hillary Clinton did Illegal things, it means that Trump is free of criticism and Illegalities himself. Both party candidates were horrible choices for the job and that's a sentiment that was shared by many people. I'm generally right in the middle when it comes to political parties, and that I could throw myself behind either candidate without feeling dirty is a big red flag.
For those claiming that the show is biased:
1. Last Week Tonight is not a news outlet. It is a comedy show, which of course is centred around the news of the week, but it is not required to be unbiased. If you can claim this show was biased, that wouldn't be an issue anyways.
2. I don't think this show was biased. For example: they covered Hillary's scandals which were investgated by the FBI and could therefore be considered legitimate problems for her; covering the conspiracy theories circulating the internet would in fact take away from the serious scandals and give more of a foothold to Republicans who could then form arguments about Hillary's scandals not being taken seriously etc. They also only covered the Trump scandals that are serious and that were at the forefront of the public's awareness at the time of taping, and not the ones with barely any evidence supporting them. Nobody has any right to scream about propaganda every time there's a news article or comedy show that opposes your viewpoint.
They seem to take the view that it's less funny if it's not true. Therefore they fact-check the **shit** out of **everything**.
You seem to be trying to argue against this show being biased, yet you seem to assume this episode is the only thing this show has created. I do agree that this video is fair, but some of the other ones, mainly the newer ones, are against Donald Trump. I’m not claiming right now that the president does not deserve what this show has said about him, he absolutely does, it’s just that it is biased since it’s showing a liberal viewpoint. I want to make clear that I am a liberal myself and Trump absolutely deserves the stuff he’s gotten for being a bad leader and business man.
@@timothyschmiedl251 the liberal viewpoint isn't biased if its the truth. Just because one side of America's political spectrum has chosen to champion the truth does not mean that the truth is biased.
@@timothye.2902 and you have the supreme knowledge and opinion that us mortals cannot posses, and everyone elses opinion is a unworthy of even being spoken
Of course there’s bias from Oliver and his writers. They would agree, and Oliver himself has said his show isn’t journalism, although I see a clear journalistic component. Ultimately, its allowed to be biased, it’s enlightening and hilarious. Either like it or don’t, but don’t claim it’s unbiased or too biased.
Who else is here failing to find the “Joe Exotic” episode?

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.
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.
i have no fucking idea how any of those two even got chosen as candidates
fear and media manipulation. only 9 percent of americans voted for these two. ranked choice voting and public funding of elections would solve this shit.
It's also why smart people say we should get rid of the electoral college system and go for a more direct one.
Well not all primaries are open, many of them only had party members voting on their nominee (Quite why people seem to think they have a say in who gets to run a party they are not a member of in the firstplace I don't know, it seems odd).
Eh no that's why smart people say you should go for a representational system rather than first past the post, a more direct democracy would be a terrible idea. Most people have no idea how to run a country and are non educated on the issues.
The only worse situation would have been Hillary vs Cruz. But this is a close 2nd. No fucking idea how it came to this...
Anyone else watching this for nostalgia
2016: why won't trump release his tax payments?
2020: Oh that's why
In retrospect having Flynn shout about being a liability to the security of the nation is quite ironic and hilarious.
It's 2 AM John! I got college! ....ah well. This is education right? Screw it.

I'm watching this in 2019 thinking, "not enough voters watched this video."
voters chose clinton, superdelegates chose trump, clinton won by 3 MILLION votes. this isnt a question of stupid or uninformed voters!
@Fernando Baeza you’re right that Clinton won the majority vote! But I definitely think a lot of citizens were underinformed. We definitely can and should do better
thats exactly what i was thinking. Then again, Clinton won by 3 million votes but our bullshit so called democracy known as the electoral college put this pathological liar in the White House any way.
YES
@@MrFrozenbear Clinton may have won the popular vote by 3 Million but 63 Million Americans still voted for Trump. That is unacceptable. 63 Million people looked at this man and actively wanted him to be their leader. That is just fucked up beyond comprehension.
