Three long years ago, John Oliver laughingly challenged Donald Trump to run for President, when he guest hosted Jon Stewart’s Daily Show. How powerful were his words?!! This is John Oliver’s last show before election day Tuesday, and maybe the last show before the end of the world. While Oliver’s video is an entertaining look at where the candidates are in their last week of campaigning, John takes a moment to the audience seriously.
“We are at a point where this man has a genuine shot at the presidency, besides having blown up a political party, undermined confidence in our political system, declared open season on journalists, and unleashed a river of racism and misogyny. Also, and I feel we’ve lost sight of this – he has really stupid hair! It’s important to remember that. It’s f****g hard to believe that there was a time when people thought a Trump presidency would be funny!”
If it’s any comfort to John, we all thought the birther buffoon was laughable We chuckled as his lacquered coiffure, escaped its bobby pins and flew at full mast. He was a joke. We simply didn’t bargain on ‘The Joker’ whose capacity for evil hadn’t been fully tapped. That’s why we all must vote – and this is the easy way to do it.
