Just saw it earlier - absolutely great bit. 

I'm usually not a very big fan of John Oliver, but this segment really knocked it out of the park.

Gonna wait to watch the episode later tonight with my wife, then I'll comment.  My guess is that it's a rant hating on him/actions of his

Desperation.

Seems like a regular show, he could have hacked on and on about 1 thing but they actually went around pretty well

 

Also, I shall add:

Keep going. You only make him stronger. It's too late. The eggs are already cooked and this bird has flown. Let's just ignore him. He's not serious. He'll never run. It's all a joke. He insulted someone. It's all over now. He stepped in it this time. They will never really vote for him. Nobody likes him. Oh shit. He's winning. Say he's a liar. Say he's a racist. Say he has short fingers. Too late.

 

Can we imagine his first State of the Union address? No longer will it be a national cheerleader event with half the room jumping up and clapping like seals, while the other half sits there, stone-faced, like Supreme Court Justices. He will be the Chairman of the Board... delivering asset reports, projections, new business, mass firings, profit and loss statements, and new appointments. How fun will this be? Like winter... it's coming. It's about time we get serious.

At this point, I too believe he will get the nomination. The presidency is another question, we'll see about that still. Let this serve a lesson to the political mainstream that taking the people for idiots and sweeping obvious problems under the rug and acting like they didn't exist will piss people off. And when they're pissed off, they will protest vote for just about anyone who isn't them even if the alternative is...well, Donald Trump.

Lys, please, we do not require another "strong man" on the world, we already got enough bear riding asshats.

 

Everything he does in the US are the things you guys despise all the worlds "strong man" with, perhaps the sticker "made in the US" makes everything alright...

A nation isn't a company, nor are its inhabitants mere numbers to shuffle across a board of high-stakes poker just for $$.

 

I still want a answer to my whole "greatness" question, cause funnely enough Hillary put it nicely yesterday: The US never lost its "greatness".

He will get the nomination, there's no question really at this point.  The Presidency, I still am up in the air about, personally speaking, I don't think he will.  I don't think he will get the needed votes to do so, I don't think he's going to swing the independents, nor get democrats to switch over. 

 

Honestly, his latest talk on CNN and unwilling to disavow David Duke was embarrassing.  He played stupid, like he didn't know what group the KKK was or white supremacy was.  He was given multiple chances but he wouldn't do so.  I mean, I get it, he obviously wants everyone's vote he can.  He would of been better off saying something along the lines, "I want everyone's vote I can get, but I don't support/agree with the Klan."  I'm sorry, if you can't disavow a group like the KKK, that's sad to me.

Hahah I absolutely love this.
