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.

      Apparently not that easy if you are alone in it right?

      Maybe consider you are missing something. It’s not wrong to not side with everyone else but it should make you stop and consider it and then you can continue if you want. I’m just trying to give you the moment for reflection.

      I agree that middle of the roading is not helpful and can normalize terrible things by act of just making them seem less terrible cause it was right next to better options but that’s not the same as directly advocating for it.

      And we already aren’t sure you are comprehending their position with the right tone, I’m not sure more examples will help your case. Or even what you are trying to say as none of us are seeing it with you.

      It’s ok to pause and get yourself and your points together. I hope you find what’s worth being committed to and what’s ok to drop and let go of cause right now I think you are confused and could use it.

      Given that you think he’s pro-fifa and pro-brexit, I very much doubt you could pinpoint his stance on much of anything.
