S3 E19: DNC, North Carolina & Turkey: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver 

Well, on the downside, we can fell that fear again right now.

To be fair, absolutely no one missed the foreshadowing about Trump.

Right? It's like getting a booster shot for flu season, only instead of getting a vaccine for a particular strain of the flu, it's for all the warning signs of a crumbling democratic republic.

Not just this one, they whole campaign coverage should be on live TV for the folks about to vote to see.

@@delwysglokpor3362 I agree completely! I'm working my way chronologically through Season 3, and the similarities between 2016 and 2024 are unbelievable.

I don’t think many people regret not voting Hillary Clinton though

Yeah save the "John aged rapidly" jokes for that guy. What the hell happened there?

@@Onigirli The last 8 years happened...

Frankly 2016 was the last year where they should have endorsed Biden. Look back at his career and you just can't recognize the guy elected in 2020....

@@Onigirli Presidents age super fast, look at Obama, or even Trump (I guess in his case it's more related to his judiciary troubles and terrible business results).

Also, I love how as soon as he was no longer the nominee, he got a lot of energy back. That is the energy of a man who thought he had another four years until retirement and then found out he had six months.

And now we can see the clearing in the forest!

I appreciate how you & I partaking in this marathon simultaneously

He DEFINITELY jinxed it

Worry not - things have changed for the better in the last month!

Or Tim Walz would be awesome as the main candidate! Not Kamala

Dude went from ‘Jim Crow’ Joe to ‘G*no/cide’ Joe 😂 This is who you’re sad about? Brother please, for all of us, dream bigger

You already said that 😉

Thanks bro!

thank you :D

8 years is a short time once you cross 70. It can go downhill fast

Give the supreme court a couple of weeks, and they will have upturned that as well.

what are you talking about? it’s always been extremely common-Black people weren’t allowed to vote literally at all for over a century, and once they were legally given the right, basically every state fought it with everything they had.

The issue that people that say this don’t understand is many people clearly WANT a repeat of trump

First world problems. Maybe spend less time on RU-vid

Ugh whine whine whine

I lowkey like it 😂

It’s led by who voters vote for When Biden won and when Trump won there were younger options. Voters didn’t want them

70 should be the cut off point for entering top level politics

@@martinjrgensen8234 I dunno, if we made rate cutoff 70 we would have lost Nancy Pelosi 14 years ago and there is no question she was highly effective well into her 70s and that Democrats would have lost an important and valuable fighter for their cause. Biden was quite effective in his first term. And anyway, term or age limits are clearly unconstitutional for elected federal representatives. Age isn’t really the problem. Age and narcissism are the problem, along with an unwillingness to use social sanction against older people who are occupying important positions and need to step aside to let younger people take over.

That was a shock to be reminded of after this debate

Yup... I'll never forgive them 🤬

Why would they be? I don't have any statistics at hand, but I'm pretty sure most Bernie supporters ended up voting for her.

@@kierandouble6414 if that is in fact true, then i apologize for my erroneous implication

Most people wouldn’t have been happy with either trump or Hillary

@@Rowsy91 I'll bet a lot of them would still be ALIVE with Hillary

Just like he (Biden) did!
