That's because you're expecting jokes - and the lack of canned-laughter, makes it impossible to tell where the punchlines of his weak jokes are. He is flailing his arms at Trump, listing the ONE of the two countries that has responded diligently to this crisis; Singapore and South Korea. Other than these TWO countries - NO GOVERNMENT IN THE WORLD has responded with due diligence. If anything - Trump has actually done a LOT more than some countries (like Sweden... which has done sweet fuck-all... and is TO THIS DAY - forcing parents to send their children to school at the threat of going to jail/loosing custody). Trump is a pile of shit.... but compared to ALL the other piles of shit... this pile of shit at least floats. John Oliver will never even recognize this... this is what makes John Oliver a partisan hate-mongerer intent to tear the country down. For example: Why does a leader say that the markets are doing fine? Because people are stupid fucking herd-animals. If you say "they will go to shit" people will sell all their holdings and thereby ENSURING IT GOES TO SHIT!!! I am 100% certain John Oliver knows this - which makes John Oliver an evil person... not just a comedian, but actually evil.

You DEFINITELY _never_ retweet the President. Not the current one, anyway. Retweet Obama all you want. Check Biden before retweeting. Do not taunt happy fun Nixon. --Dave, Trump has never once cared, his whole life, whether what's coming out of his fingers, or his burger-hole, is true or not. That's just not the standard he goes by. At all.

That said, *damn* is he good at performing, giving good information, and generally not falling apart as a human in this situation.
