Teary-Eyed John Oliver Begs Reluctant Voters to Back Harris

The late-night host sent an emotional message to viewers in a passionate monologue days before the election.

Summary

In an emotional monologue, John Oliver urged undecided and reluctant voters to support Kamala Harris, emphasizing her policies on Medicare, reproductive rights, and poverty reduction.

Addressing frustrations over the Biden administration’s Gaza policy, he acknowledged the struggle for many voters yet cited voices like Georgia State Rep. Ruwa Romman, who supports Harris despite reservations.

Oliver warned of the lasting consequences of a second Trump term, including potential Supreme Court shifts.

Oliver said voting for Harris would mean the world could laugh at this past week’s photo of an orange, gaping-mouthed Trump in a fluorescent vest and allow Americans to carry on with life without worrying about what he might do next.

      Man I’m so happy we can all agree we can ignore this class of people cause of their place of origin. It makes it so much easier to instantly be right.

          You are belittling and disregarding anything a group of people say because of an identifiable tag.

          You tell me what that looks like.

          Respond to their statement not on their appearance. I don’t get why people think this is productive discourse. It’s lazy segregation.

            You’re acting like having an account on a particular instance is an immutable part of your identity that you are born with. It takes less than a minute and zero money to stop associating with idiots and concern trolls.

            Also their statement has already been sufficiently responded to, unless you think there’s more to be added?

              And you are acting like a basic act of signing up for a site let’s you stereotype people without consequence. It takes only you to not only use that identity piece to immediately treat people differently.

              And sure. Other people had a conversation. I’m just asking, what you added? Them not being like you doesn’t make your response any different or more necessary.

            Ignoring .ml is easier than facing the reality that democrats are doing everything they can to throw the freeest election in world history.

              Can you expand on what you mean by “the freest election in world history”? Are you saying there has been no voter suppression and disenfranchisement?
