But when you cannot truly decide which of the candidates you dislike the least, where the hell to you go making a vote? Do you just fucking pick at random? What the fuck do we do here?

Ahaha I know right

Lock her up! Huh, she did nothing illegal? Impeach and lock him up! Huh, the senate are a bunch of spineless hypocrites? Oh, ok.

@@awrebyawe Both Trump and Clinton broke laws and should be in prison.

@@comradesky5931 yeah except Clinton has been investigated, multiple times, by republicans, democrats, and independent organisations, yet no wrongdoing has been filed. Trump has blocked every investigation into his organisation since taking office, he did not even testify in his own impeachment hearing, whether you believe it's a witch hunt or not. As president, he should have testified. He obstructed Mueller's investigation and Barr tied Mueller's hands by saying no sitting president could be charged of a crime. Big difference when one cooperated with investigations and was cleared, whilst the other obstructs investigations, intimidates witnesses, cries on social media how unfair everybody is to him, then clears himself again via social media.

@@comradesky5931 you are shifting the goalposts. Yes, the US government in general has committed all sorts of atrocities around the globe for decades, however, we are not talking about Obama, nor anyone else but Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. Hillary has faced multiple investigations and complied with them, from people all over the political spectrum, including her own party. Trump has been protected by his party and obstructed all other investigations. That's the point here, don't distract by bringing up irrelevant things, no matter how much I agree with you on war crimes.

I miss Obama

And Joe Exotic is now more famous than before

I miss the good old days

Watching this only 6 months later.... the times are even more complicated

@@nerd2219 And now Biden has won

if i was voting age back then i would have voted for him lol

Somehow only the _second-least_ qualified person to run for President. Sure, he’s hot-headed and gun-toting, but also very honest and upfront.

Juan Garza other than corona virus memes.

Probably Joe himself

jamie greenberg I would vote vermin supreme

Brandon Hibbert true

I was about to leave a very similar comment lol

@putsome basilonit ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Z-xI1384Ry4.html

josh shelton a

Yep

killblade6 Ron Paul didn't run this year.

NO! Just no.

We didn't fail him The established political arm failed us.

Wayne F. Watley, Jr. He was getting too old and probably wanted to "hand the torch" to his son Rand Paul

i know... they shot him.. RIP Harambe.

FSSZilla well said, you may have cemented my choice of whom to vote for...

Ari Vishnu but that statement doesn't even have a reason behind it. It's just a collection of words that sound full of conviction and elegant. It appeals to your emotions, sure, political ideas need to be on facts, not feelings. Saying you'd rather want a malimformed, useless, and irresponsible President than a corrupt one is all fine and dandy until it actually happens.

Stein Baracka 2016!

Evan McMullin or Darrel Castle ?

yt

They were no match for our weaponized Beavers and Moose

Galactic Gaming fear the moose

Pyromanic8 that was the first thing i noticed. The weirdest thing is that it has the border line still.

We'll just send our geese to reclaim the state. They feed on souls using the teeth that grow out of their tongues!

Well in the Kaiserriech alternate timeline (a Hearts of Iron IV mod) where Germany wins WW1 and a Communist Revolution in Britain led to the British Royal Family and Nobility to flee to Canada to plan the homecoming liberation of Britain, America falls to Civil War and Canada invades Alaska and sets up a allied nation in New England and upstate New York.

Eamenic1 but he never has made a serouis video exposing her

And in which episodes are these "rips"?

One of these rips was in the end of this very episode. Would you like me to quote it?

Justin Purdy Ha, I knew someone would bring up the one in this episode. The one in this episode is obviously implied. OPs quote was: "He rips on Hillary all the fucking time." That implies more than one rip. This episode makes one. There must be other episodes that have rips. So what are these episodes? I know you're gonna try and say the scandals piece. The scandals piece was utterly defensive and apologetic. Unless you can quote a good rip from that segment. So are there any other episodes?

Eamenic1 Preach it.

Ya, i can use that extra welfare

Nah, Joe Exotic is our one true savior.

He'll keep pushing his policies, free from having to deal with the presidency. And NOW he has name recognition.

LegendaryKing Nope, you idiots already fucked that up. Boohoo, no one feels sorry for you now.

Sir Clasher Hahaha stay with grandpa Bernie 😂😂😂

A democratic socialist party would be a great option

@@will823 it would split the vote, but sure.

a popular vote wouldn't have made it any better I'm afraid

The stupid Freedom Caucus is proving that a third party that actually has party is absolutely problematic with the current system. They managed to make the party that in theory has a majority in the house unable to seat their choice for speaker until after 15 rounds of voting over 4 days and with major sacrifices being made in order to give him their vote, some incredibly dangerous. Speaker McCarthy is the weakest speaker ever in terms of control of his party and its because of this fringe party. Obviously not every third party would do this, but this example shows how problematic it can be with the current structure.

@@iamoctonate This was inevitable. In almost every other "democratic country" these people would never be in the same party but they are because there are only two parties you can join if you want to be elected. There will always be divisive extremists no matter how many parties you have but if the so-called Freedom Caucus was a separate party, a more moderate Republican Party could emerge and they maybe could've reached out to the Democrats instead, leaving the crazies isolated. Plus, a more radical left-wing party could also emerge and then I could vote without holding my nose.

You mean the two boyfriends that joe attracted and kept woth meth and the "bitch down in florida" that most likely killed her husband and fed his corpse to a tiger?

not knowing what he's talking about is part of the fun though

What he mean?

@@unknownname1941 Joe Exotic was "married" to two guys at the same time, one died, and the other one broke up with him, and by "some bitch in Florida" he means Carole Baskin, owner of Big Cat Rescue sanctuary in Florida, who Joe had some serious beef with, and at one point tried to get her killed.

"being particularly thorough with Hillary's" is a matter of your own opinion.

He has done Hillary. Search John Oliver 'Scandals'

They're still butthurt about Bernie losing.

I know he's addressed what he would consider scandals. I watch like every episode. I like John Oliver. But I would disagree if I were to say he were thorough.

aaronlwu257 Oh you mean he addressed the fact that all the Hillary scandals do is look shady and that made you sad? He didn't condemn your least favorite candidate but looked at the objective facts and came up with the fact that everything wasn't as bad as it looked and you are upset?

Gallagher girl they do research all of this very well!

As a fellow Oklahoman it is not unfair for someone to assume someone from Oklahoma is doing meth, we all fuckin Walter White in this bitch

Yeah... It's almost as if he'd had a beer with him.. then another one... then a third, fourth, etcetera, and then he tried meth for the first time.

Maybe he was Joes 6th husband at some point.

John Oliver’s videos have a tendency to age like fine wine.

What do you mean by cameo? He's the main part.

if he was the perfect candidate he would not sold out his beliefs and those he inspired to fall in line behind Clinton. Sanders ended up just being another fraud, like many others before him. not going to lie though he had me fooled.

he supported Clinton compared to Trump....i would fuck Clinton to stop Trump becomming president.....and i dont mean hillary clinton...;3 Hes not a fraud, you are supose to vote for him in the next vote to make up your mistake to vote for the wrong democrat.

ApolloMars1617 - no that is exactly what it makes him. when he preaches changing the rigged system then cozies up to it. he is a total sellout.

David R LOL he dont preaches. hes a mob controller, using hate and mob-culture to create support by people, who WANT TO BELIVE, that Trump would support his agenda, but in reallity TRUMP DONT CARE ABOUT YOUR ARGUMENTS or all american state members. You dont even know his real agenda.

ApolloMars1617 - can't argue with that

Bernie's throwing in his chips with Hilary. If you actually respect him, listen to him and not the idea of him.

Spiny Justspiny Hillary is a demon spawned from within a dying child's nightmare....

Jacob Allen absolutely not

Spiny Justspiny exactly, he's smart he understands if we want anything he promised/is trying to achieve we need to make sure trump isn't president

Technically he can still win. Sanders never gave up his electoral votes to Hillary. So you can write Bernie Sanders on Nov. 8th. 👍🏻

You can't think of anyone else?

Honestly, we should also fix the Presidential debates, too, cus rn it is just two people talking over each other. Otherwise, it's going to be three people talking over each other.

Hope Dr Cornell West hits it this go around

It’s SO BAD

TWICE.

Even wilder after watching Tiger King

@@tonightsbiggestloser4163 what do you think they were referring to?

@@michaelabbott5999 A true crime documentary from over 2 months ago. AKA. Not Tiger King.

I hate that bitch in Florida, free Joe he is great and that bitch is obsessive moronic cat-opsesed idiot.

@@nerminsnowhuseinbasic9340 Joe Exotic murders and abuses tigers, and literally tried to murder people for calling him out. He also pushed a young dude to suicide

Does you state not provide space for write ins?

A fair number of states allow write-ins; to my knowledge, only 10 states don't.

Well congrats on wasting your vote then. You may as well not bother if that's your plan

stupid

You know he's voting for Hillary Clinton, and urging his supporters to vote for her, right?

You should've bc I'm pretty sure he mentioned it in 2016 at least

Hes independant

I almost threw up when a coworker said he would vote for Kanye

The Rookie Bad tax plan. That's actually a pretty big deal. you and a lot of other people seem to think that the only thing that qualifies a candidate for office is being honest and trustworthy. Newsflash; they have to have coherent/realistic policy and a good grasp on the issues as well.

it doesn't matter that they're better than clinton and trump if they have no idea how to run the country ( i don't think trump does either)

They are horribly unprepared for the task is the point. The so-called "liar murderer" has at least legit applicable policies in mind, and can actually make points while talking, as opposed to Johnson or Stein.

I think you missed the point. He is saying that their views aren't going to work and will destroy our economy. Stein with eliminating student debt and Johnson with removing income and corporate tax, and making a super high sales tax on everything. Hillary and Donald are also terrible presidents, but at least their parties won't destroy our economy in the first year

The Rookie trump hardly a racist.

Except he has done many videos on both Hillary and Trump..

Well I think the music was more for comedic effect. Throw a few legit punches then bring up frivolous non issues. Same with Gary and the Mountain. It's a 20 minute video I think he did his best.

It's also comedy too. People seem to forget that this show is supposed to be funny while at the same time informative.

I think he makes videos about all candidates by now. Hillary's scandals were widely covered in an earlier episode, and seeing that the only bad thing he can find about Jill is that her implementation of the idea isn't good yet, I think Jill came out as the most reasonable candidate.

Bas Dado But he said something bad them! That must mean he supports Hillary! he talked about how they lack serious policy proposals, so he is mean and doesn't believe in third parties. Also, did I mention that he must obviously be a Kitlery supporter? /Sarcasm

Yeah, but to be honest, 2020 took one look at the contemporary rule book, laughed at it and then ripped it to shreds.

Is there anything that isnt an exploit of the economic system?

Okay, but many magic tricks are complicated when you actually explain how to do them and most people don’t understand how to do them, so in a sense he was still right.

Because he's not running for president

He is a write in option, so even though he isn't running anymore you can vote for him.

Well technically you can if your state allows write-in voting. Just check mark the 'Others' box and put Bernard Sanders.

Like a scumbag..? No. He lost the primaries, so he endorsed Hillary Clinton. It's not hard to comprehend.

If you live in a state with write-ins, you technically can. It's just really kind of a wasted vote since it is virtually impossible for him to win at this point.

no she is still probably the worse, you should do more research than watching a fifteen minute comedy to decide that.

that's your opinion, but against 3 people who really don't know how to government, I dunno. still would prefer none of these people though

David R Yes, and research will still show that she is the better choice.

I think "best" is the wrong word here. More like: "Least awful depending on your personal views."

No candidate is anywhere near good. Stein is too passive, Trump is too aggressive, Hillary is corrupt, and Johnson is not patient. Although their weaknesses tend to be their strengths is some cases. Stien being charismatic and loving, Trump appearing honest and genuine, Hillary with the skills of leadership, and Johnson with the ability to adapt to the situation.

There's a few reasons for this -- though it's a good question. The biggest reason is the relative strength of party infrastructure; parties in the US are (compared with British ones) institutionally very weak. It's best to think of American political parties less like the parties you're used to, and more like alliances between various interest groups that can change. American party whips can count votes but don't have the same mechanisms to enforce party discipline, and there's no party vetting process to get a candidate onto the list for a constituency like there is in the UK. If you want to run as a Democrat in an American district, you can run as a Democrat, and vice versa. You won't _win_ if you're too alien to what most party voters want (and by the way, you don't join the two major American parties in the same way you do in the UK -- instead you register, which often determines which ballot you get), but there's nothing anyone can do about your choosing the party ballot line. Generally, when a movement wants to generate some sort of effective change in the UK, it has to form a group from the outside and make deals and fights with the other parties until it forces its way into Parliament and either grows (e.g. Labour, now a government-in-waiting), formally merges into a larger party (e.g. the Social Democrats, now part of the LibDems), or disappears (e.g. the Irish Parliamentary Party, which once held the balance of power in Parliament and then collapsed after Ireland won independence). In the US, though, groups can operate within parties to affect change internally and there's not much the party higher-ups can do about it, so this leads to it being generally easier to work within parties than outside them. The Civil Rights movement did this with the Democrats, resulting in the white-supremacist "Dixiecrat" faction leaving the party entirely and mostly defecting to the Republicans by the 1990s. So did the Bernie people, and although you couldn't call the Democrats a socialist party, you can definitely say that Bernie's movement left a lasting imprint on party policies and energized millions of people. By the same token, the Tea Party did this with the Republicans, as did the MAGAheads -- both of those groups spurred a realignment within the GOP that would be all-but-impossible -- or at least very very very slow -- within a British political party. Corbyn tried -- love him or hate him, he tried -- and it wrecked him. Most German and other European parties operate differently, partly because they're responding to different types of concerns (no single-member districts, more proportionality ...). They're more stable, but also more liable to real coalitions, which have their own host of benefits and problems.

Michael Scarn if they would stop behaving like clueless idiots, perhaps you would have a point.

I like Jill, but her plans and policies are not well thought out.

Michael Scarn - Yeah how dare he treat them like clueless idiots when they're clearly also delusional on top of being clueless idiots.

Do you have any counter-evidence to provide that they AREN'T clueless idiots? There were over 40 people who threw their hat into the ring for president, many of them far more qualified than Jill and Gary, who didn't make the cut. The only reason Jill and Gary are even noticed is because they have minor party backing. If they'd run outside a party you wouldn't even know them. Kind of like Joe Exotic.

Michael Scarn , I can absolutely see your point, however, Gary, hasn't helped his cause, and Jill can't get enough pub

I'm all for radical reductions in our military spending, but half in four or even eight years would be terrible policy. It's like slamming your breaks on the freeway when you are going 90mph. Sure, that's too fast, but slamming the breaks causes other problems.

Jussi Eerio he brought up her music because he's a comedian first and just reports the news while he does it. why does it matter if he brought up her shitty music? it was funny and awful and made me laugh, which was the point

I thought her music was far more interesting than the Taylor Swifts and Dr Dre's out there.

Lee Duon well we will need to Brake because there is traffic in front of us

Jussi Eerio You aware he didn't mention it because a president can't do that

2016 is the year to be exotic!

Speaking of Joe Exotic, I've actually been to his zoo and was there the day he broke his leg, necessitating the brace you see here. Just before his tiger wrangling show he handed out condoms (with his picture on the wrapper) to all the males in audience. He made a speech predicting that his death would be from a tiger attack, then started his show. In the cage with two tigers, they were getting increasing frisky playing with one another and one snuck behind Joe hitting his leg at just the angle to break it. He collapsed in pain. I wondered "how is this guy not on TV??"

well he definetly sounds like the best choice, I wish I was being sarcastic

make America exotic again!

Hi

Only if you believe that people voted Bernie because of a cult of personality and won't disagree with him on anything. I believe Bernie supporters are more principled by that and can make their own decisions, and may come to a different conclusion even with taking into account that Bernie is voting Hillary.

Yeah no... People didn't support Bernie because he was some charismatic super star. We supported him due to the policies he espoused. And telling people to vote for someone just because one other person is doing so is a bad idea.

Fact Ninja Bernie himself said follow your heart not me if I support Hillary

Sander & Clinton told us to "vote your conscience." #JillStein2016

Fact Ninja write him in please

Flavio Fernandes speak the dam truth.

Flavio Fernandes he wasn't let go - he was CHEATED by HILLARY CLINTON.

It's what the DNC wanted. Corrupt committee. It's all in the emails. Write-in Bernie.

you damn commie SJW's get back on tumblr you no nothing about politics Bernie took his shekels and bought a nice mansion and fooled all of you lol

Don't write in. It won't count but in a couple smaller states. Believe me, I want Bernie back. I wish he would've FDR'd the election. We could, and still can, pull enough numbers together to get him elected. He just has to want it.

I had to come check it out after watching!

Now that video has such a sinister and hilarious context

Watching it I got a sudden feeling of "I'm pretty sure I've seen that guy's presidential election campaign video on LWT" and then I couldn't let it go until I'd checked! 😂 🐯 John Oliver as usual did not disappoint! ❤

Other way round 🤣

What’s the doc called

Ayyy, it is Corona Time

Wait, really? That's kinda hilarious for Trump, but disturbing to think about with the stimulus checks.

which time?

*recurring

Antman4656 you don't have to imagine. They already said it when she ran against Obama

***** ay, the north remembers

For all her flaws, the one thing you cant say about Hillary is that she doesnt understand how politics work. Jill Stein is much more likable than hillary, but shes just not a good politician, her policies are completely clueless and that has nothing to do with her being a third party candidate. By the way, Trump definetely doesnt sound better then Jill or Gary if you ask me.

They would tear into Jill Stein for being unqualified and notice that the third party candidate was a US Senator, Secretary of State, and First Lady, whether you like or agree with Hillary or not.

Yes. As if the majors always have it all worked out. And why is *_money_** always the only priority in the world anyway?*

You don't think her not actually having any type of stances isn't a good thing? At least with Trump we know he's a racist piece of shit because he loves reminding us but Jill might be racist with one crowd and then not in another.

Einchy Seriously? She does have stances. What do you call: increasing infrastructure spending, Universal Health Care, eliminating student debt, College Free Tuition, cutting military spending, legalizing marijuana and decriminalizing all drugs... etc.?

+Noel Berhane Have you watched the video ? She can't eliminate the student debt as president and she's rather open for conspiracy theories.

He isn't racist ok? I'm not a Trump supporter but MY GOD are you regressives ignorant. Donald Trump never said anything bad about any race, he was talking about the illegal immigrants that come in from Mexico, Syria etc.

Michael yes I watched the video. She can't but the Fed can. However improbable it may be, it's not impossible, it's actually possible.

Proof John Oliver is a nitwit who's as dumb as he is ugly... and I'm still amazed they allow him to even glimpse at a camera without it wanting to gouge its lens out.

KnowOne there's not much to know. Bunch of sociopathic crazies.

He knows what it is, that doesn't make the candidates any better

@Sarahnewks Nothing says "I don't know what I'm talking about" like immediate, dismissive insults.

He didnt attack Libertarianism, he attacked Gary Johnson, big difference

Yup, learn more about em, and then like them even less.

He does political satire, it's not supposed to be unbiased

But it's true! I'm not happy about it, but Hillary Clinton is the most qualified person to be President. Even Libertarian Vice Presidential candidate Weld admitted it.

Gary Johnson is a pretty right-wing candidate though, and he's much higher in the polls than Stein. If everyone only voted for one of the 2 main candidates, that would be better off for Trump.

Cream Soda did you even watch the video he even attacked her

It wasn't a real attack against Hillary. Just enough to appear unbiased to the casual observer. For example he said she represents everything about what "some people" hate about politics. A nice little caveat he did not extend to anyone else.

Ah, sorry: AT&T !

John Oliver is a nobody. Just a corporate comedian shill for Hillary Clinton. He's not even American.

but he said bad things about clinton before. why would he do that when she bought him?

Oh grow up. "Not even American?" Get off your elitist high horse. That doesn't mean anything. He lives here. He's an American. Deal with it.

not even american just like you are mostly too... and the "Scottish German" Trump for that case. just mixture of imports from somewhere else. lets find a descendant of Sioux Chief Standing Bear and get him to be USA's president... then finally USA gets it first _American_ president...

I love it when he almost proudly announces, "I am broke as shit...."

My second favorite part is Jill Stein’s song. I had no idea.....

Restryouis did you watch the whole thing? He went at hilary as well

Restryouis we can bash hillary as much as we want AFTER shes elected cuz we dont want even a slight chance the orange idiot will win

Restryouis You haven't seen the cookies video? Stupid is really in fashion these days.

Except he did bash Hillary.

1 He did address hilary's "scandals" on a video, you should look up what actually has been talked about before you spout nonsense. 2. So you think, with your little illogical brain that Hillary and the left somehow finances the whole "mainstream media" (ie media that actually uses sources and actually has in some cases nearly a century or more of record) yet there's no trail of this ANYWHERE TO BE FOUND, such a founded accusation right? 3. Who disappeared? I've yet to see any of the alt right and alex jones kind of loons disappear ANY, ANY AT ALL. And they're the biggest opposers of the left, so where does your logic fit in? Nowhere as usual. You retards make me sick. Stop being illogical go read a book before you pretend to know anything about anything.

so i.t. guy, when will you be doing your own research and finding out he has?

You mean that stupid raisin video completely trivialising her corruption?

BaileysBeads im guessing you're one of the people who believed the swiss file transfer was a real thing

That's as close as his corporate overlords will let him. And you know what, Oliver? I STILL FUCKING HATE RAISINS!

My guess is since the story isn't finished they haven't done a story. They put a lot into this and without the full story it's probably hard to do. Since the leaks are still happening that is, but the whole theme of this show is comedy and being late to the news. Hopefully it's soon! (Though since in this episode he did mention the ethics of reporting on stolen information I wonder if that is also delaying things)

If you write in Bernie enough that it's a three way tie, the choice goes to the House. Each member votes for President and Vice president (VP can be different than President (ie Clinton and Pence)). The house is Republican. They hate Hillary, so no. They hate Donald, so no. Bernie wants to remove money from politics - so no. The House sits on their hands. "And if the House of Representatives shall not choose a President whenever the right of choice shall devolve upon them, before the fourth day of March next following, then the Vice-President shall act as President, as in case for example the death or other (constitutional disability) of the President." USCS Const. Amend. 12. Mike Pence becomes President. (Republican Establishment = Happy House). I love Bernie but he needs to play this game outside of the system.

EVOLICIOUS I wish it was possible but because he volunteered dropping he can't be voted in

Me too.

***** He had no choice. He has to protect his position in government. Otherwise he would be alienated. I believe Hillary has already won, and Bernie knew it as soon as Hillary scammed him out of his campaign.

nuts4ppgxrrb Thanks for making this whole voting thing for me 1000x more difficult. lol.

Johnny is a good boy for Time Warner.

Didn't take too long to figure out why you were upset with this video.

Angel Flores Didn't take long to figure out the two party shill

So you're just not going to debate any of the content in the video and instead just call names. Got it. Typical

Is that how being a Steinie works? Anything that disagrees with you is part of a vast global conspiracy? Your beliefs are unfalsifiable?

It opens up doubt - giving millions of idiots a reason to keep avoiding vaccines and putting the rest of the entire population in danger due to their confirmation biases. There's no clear and clean evidence thus far that links autism to vaccines so it's rational to assume there is no connection and it's far safer to do so too. There is, from a technical standpoint, nothing absolute in science - but that doesn't mean we should go around telling people and assuming from the start that gravitational forces don't exist or something. Maintaining skepticism is good - all science was founded on questions. But being an irrational and dangerous version of Descartes isn't.

Forrest Gump bullshit. I don't give a fuck if some idiots misinterpret her words. You know what never encourages cohesion and collaboration? Shouting down people you disagree with and never being open to the possibility that you are wrong. I would want my president to be open minded and hear all sides of an argument, then erring on the side with the stronger evidence, as is the proper scientific approach.

Yeah, I understand that she should moderate her wording so as not to confuse the masses of idiots, but its that exact two faced, screened nature that we seem to then turn around and hate politicians for.

+Forrest Gump The scientific approach is the right approach despite what idiots might think.

***** 1. Wow - the NSA. 2. I agree it wasn't a strong argument (I feel like John should've outlined her lack of understanding of economics far greater) - but it's still something important to note. Just because there might be tons of other flammable things inside of a burning house - doesn't mean we should tolerate someone dousing the outside with a bit of lighter fluid too. It's akin to the the whole 'so much people are doing X, so who cares if I do it or not' case and all the problems that come with it.

BigK very true m8

more like bad in a heart-attack-inducing way, if you consider the significant chance that she would lead us into nuclear war

***** He's still not as bad as World War 3.

Devin Roberts we just got that episode about how all her scandals weren't a big deal and Trumps were worse

You know he actually did an episode about the Hillary scandals, right?

How are they not as bad? Gary can't even name his favorite foreign leader.

Francis Delamerced it just seemed as though he only talked about how horrible they where, there was no real mention of any of there polices

Gary Johnson is a pretty right-wing candidate and he's much higher in the polls than Jill Stein. If everyone only voted for one of the 2 main candidates, that would be better off for Trump.

Yes, there was! And they couldn't stand by them with a serious plan.

they asked him to name a foreign alive leader that HE ADMIREs, it's just that the media likes to cut the last part :D

how? lol she doesn't choose sides just to pander to voters. that's exactly what you don't want in a strong leader and that's the type of political attitude people dislike in Clinton. even on issues like "9/11 was an inside job"

belowroller having incoherent and impractical policies that suggest you have no idea what youre talking about seems like pretty strong criticism QE wasnt a bailout. The actual bailout was a loan that was paid back. Students already get loans, they just dont want the responsibility for paying them back.

I agree.

cough building 7 coughcough

But, that biking song. Jesus.

True. The closest thing to a perfect candidate is probably some half lawyer, half accountant who plays chess and Civ 6 in his spare time, and wouldn't run for political office under any circumstances. But I'd settle for Trey Gowdy.

nekomarulupin To summarize: people are a problem.

Alex Kim Exactly! Which is why we should elect Cthulhu in 2020. Enslavement is better than these guys. ;)

Cthulhu for President 2020! (Insert shitty Cthulhu meme here)

fitofmadrage hell no

Probably because there a lot of people who think Jill and Gary 100x better than Hillary and Trump. When in fact they are just as flawed. Jon summed it up perfectly, you are choosing between the lesser of 4 evils.

He didn't have to try hard at all lol

alberto meza No need they make themselves look dumb all the time. Umm can you name a foreign leader. . . . . . . . . . .

Why? Because they are. Jill Stein is, only a little bit. Gary "Aleppo" Johnson is a complete and utter idiot. Obviously you can't handle the truth. Gary "Aleppo" Johnson proof: 10:44

Jill and Gary are both idiots. Buuuut judging from your comment you've got your head pretty far up their asses.

Comedy doesn't have to be dumb.

He never said "she wouldn't make a good president because her music is terrible." He said "her platforms are poorly thought out, by the way she makes bad music too and since this is a comedy show here it is".

***** so what does "her platforms are poorly thought out" conclude to? that she is fit for presidency? and yes. it is comedy, and I know that. I specifically stated that it was funny to communicate that, and to circumvent the "it's a comedy bit" argument I was expecting... well... still didn't work.

LE0NSKA "her platforms are poorly thought out" concludes to her being unfit for presidency. Her terrible music is simply an aside, and has no bearing on her legitimacy as president. It's like saying "Bill Clinton is a terrific sax player. Here's a clip of him playing!" or "George Bush is a world renowned skateboarder, watch him do this Ollie!"

CJ asphid you just said what I said. but differently.

light yagami I think this is an intentional choice. He knows Clinton isn't perfect, but thinks she's the best option. So knowing that he potentially has some influence over voting, yeah, he favors Clinton some. But, I mean, he never claims to be unbiased, and those that don't agree don't have to watch.

He did mention that she has been exonerated by EVERY federal inquiry she has been subjected to. And about 90% of the shit Clinton gets attacked for is just speculation or flat out lies. And even she admits her vote for the Iraq War was a mistake.

He's done it in every other episode for the past year including calling out her superficial statements but this episode points out policy ignorance, which is not a weakness Clinton has for all the ones she does.

He does not talk about the elecction fraud, controlling the media,helping to make Trump the candidate

I've noticed that too. He went too far in his "trying to be a [white] feminist" story

Thank you for your sentiments. _Maybe, "condolences," is a better word to use._

Thanks. Also sorry about the army of postmen that might be coming your way soon.

Todd Zimmerman Help us

Todd Zimmerman HELP US PLEASE.

Jill is a pretty sweet choice though.

Also, it is disingenuous to say that is "central to her campaign"

What is this 'very small tax', I can't find it described on her campaign page.

OppressiveStraightWhiteMaleChristian I may be mistaken, but I think it's the Robin Hood Tax. I have read about it and can't find a thing wrong with the Robin Hood tax, but I am not an economist, so if somebody knows what's wrong with it, I'd really like to know.

+Shelly Dwyer-Murphy You can't just introduce a Law to pay off student debt.Quantative easing involves the buying and selling of government bonds by private corporations.Since the government bonds are drawn on a blank check,currency is created.However,the government still has to pay for the instrest for the bonds.So,the student debt has actually INCREASED in the form of public debt.A "very-small tax" would still probably not cover all of it,also,if it does cover the debt,the wealthy could just stash their cash overseas.Tax avoidance is legal in the US,tax evasion is not.

So it weren't just the Johnson fragments that were deceptively edited? Could have guessed...

He did. He did a video on the email scandal and the controversy surrounding the Clinton Foundation.

He ended up talking more about trump than Hillary in that "anti-clinton" video anyway. I'm not American so obviously I'm not voting or supporting either candidate but I think its real obvious that Oliver wants Clinton to win.

Eather way it semes those motherfucker are gonna cause some war.take provisions cause things are gonna get rough

Whenever Trump supporters hear the opposition criticize Hillary, they go deaf, because it doesn't fit their narrative that only paid shills are voting for her.

Khorney. Yeah he hasn't exactly tried to hide that. Why is it a problem for him to have an opinion?

Because no one knew who he was until 2015?

Because of corruption.

James Sullivan ppl in the east coast knew him

Bernie Sanders passed more roll call amendments in a Republican Congress than any other member.

+Jacob Gann What amazes me is how Sanders is this arch-pragmatist legislator with a solid "never leave the table empty-handed" record, yet he attracted the kind of supporters who condemn that sort of approach as selling out. They got a nasty wake-up jolt when Sanders endorsed Clinton, as anyone with the slightest understanding of his record knew he would.

rofl xD

Richard Emms yep lol

not just you

I was nervous that he was brag about fucking the lion

@@WolfRider2002 Either that or castrated.

Shoutout to the folks here who knew about Joe Exotic before Tiger King

She was like that in 2016 as well, people just didn't see it. The US Green Party has always been a joke.

She pulled a Tulsi Gabbard ☠️

She's not. And we don't need to be at war with anybody, let alone Russia.

@@RyanFeatherston Do you or do you not support Ukraine defending itself from Russian aggression? I’m curious.

@@Dreigonix Like I said, we don't need to be at war with anybody, let alone Russia.

When Trump stops being the clearly more entertaining one to make fun of. Hillary isn't entertaining.

Shad Mcderpin Jill Stein and Gary Johnson aren't entertaining at all, though, yet they shat on them

That Loser Mika lol manga/anime profile picture

Kriskazam​​ So just because I like something you don't, that somehow makes my opinion irrelevant?

That Loser Mika John Oliver has made it pretty open that he is pro Hillary for this election, so I doubt he's going to make a video about how someone he supports is unfit. In his scandals episode he talks a bit about how Hilary has been deceptive, but he's harsher on trump (because of his political bias and this being his show) I'm sure that you can find a lot of videos that match your views on RU-vid...I just don't think you're going to find it from him.
