Who’s mesmerized by the reflection of Mr. Oliver’s tie?

[@BirdsNNVA]

Now that you mention it - yes!

[@zacharyheine4177]

Thanks that's all I see now lol

[@twotimesj6478]

Whyyyyy the pattern change wtf

[@random.comment]

23:10 😂😂😂 perfect impression

[@MedoraLastina]

Watching this makes me so teary. Having a partner living in the US makes me scared of the second Trump's presidency and the impact it could have on her. She's the dearest in my life and the thought of losing her to this incompetency scares me

[@ColeNiki]

Lesbian here 👋 just bc Trump wants to be with a woman doesn't mean he will mandate you to be with a man. This is insane

[@JonD-1]

curious to know what do you think is gonna happen?

[@MedoraLastina]

@JonD-1 I wish I could say, but as my gf is also trans so atm so health wise I'm most concerned about her access to treatments and safety in general

[@BirdsNNVA]

Check out the laughing Asian man in the lower right corner while Barr is playing the bagpipes. I love that guy.

"Unitary Executive Theory" If you felt a chill four years ago, it was me shuddering hearing that

[@tarain417land]

Now, do a segment about Trump sending the good COVID tests to Putin. Meanwhile, Americans had to wait for a drive-thru nasal swab.

[@stephaniehendricks3537]

A potential topic for next season

[@blackhat4206]

Remember when Bill Barr resigned and refused to go along with Trump attempting a coup? I member.

[@Princess_Premier]

Wouldn't it be the damndest thing if Trump won a second term..? Be wild Wouldn't it?

[@benten1975]

This man seems so full of life and hope, I wonder what happened to him.

[@Joshua_Shadow_Manriguez]

Unfortunately, Trump's Sumpre Court ruled that the President has near absolute power.

[@edgarvissoni]

being this early should be criminal 😮😂❤

Trump is just another player in the big sitcom known as our "government"😮

[@heixiong5860]

Man, I'm almost scared of how fed up John's gonna be by 2028. Y'know, if the $#!+stain in chief doesn't send all the comedians to jail for making fun of him.

Oh gawd! Can you imagine how bad it could be if Drumpf won a second term!?

For years that's For sure. To think you guys don't know that and put out this shit. Is fuckin ridiculous

Second, odd to drop a video this old as if it's new

[@kontrygrll01amerika54]

Sometimes it is good to be reminded for how terrible a candidate was in his last 4 years. I mean this is the incompetent who when he entered the White House in 2017 right away got rid of ALL the preparations for an expected pandemic the USA had been expecting since 2008. All because Obama was the one who made sure the Pandemic Task Force staffed with specialists, and Trump hated Obama with a evil passion. Trump was told in January 2020 that COVID-19 was deadly and he promptly told people it was like a cold and it would disappear in two weeks. Just like his bs about the Republicans replacement for the ACA was coming in two weeks and still in 2024 is only "concepts of a plan". He was only concerned with the Stock Market falling if he announced a serious pandemic was occurring, not American citizens lives.

[@TheNinthGeneration1]

Not really, they’ve done it 6 times before now. They’re reuploads of full episodes of previous seasons that are released whenever they don’t have a new episode.

[@thequickthepointless695]

Yeah...not really. They have been posting whole older episodes for a while now!

[@beanhoof2512]

[@TheNinthGeneration1]

Ah yes, the best way to make America great is to send tests to Putin when America is desperate for them, along with ventilators that can save lives. That truly is great isn’t? Weakening the US to strengthen Putin.
