In light of Steve Bannon’s conviction, and with renewed hope that Trump is one day tried criminally for the Jan. 6th insurrection (or any of the other charges he’s being investigated for), I’m revisiting this segment from Last Week Tonight- IMO one of the best segments this show has ever done, in which John Oliver addresses Trump supporters’ notions that 1.) “he tells it like it is” 2.) that he is truly independent & beholden to none, and 3.) that he is a successful businessman. 

“...these notes were apparently written in gold sharpie, which is so quintessentially Donald Trump- something that gives the passing appearance of wealth, but is really just a cheap tool.”

“... he has spent decades turning his own name into a brand, synonymous with ‘success’ and ‘quality’, and he’s made himself the mascot for that brand- like Ronald McDonald or Chef Boyardee- and that is who we’ve seen in The Apprentice or Wrestlemania or Home Alone 2...” “...the very name ‘Trump’ is the cornerstone of his brand.” 

However, as I think about Trump I’m reminded that Trump really isn’t representative of what the American people wanted. After all, he did lose the popular vote by ~3 million votes, which isn’t as much of a margin as I would like to see in a campaign that pitted Hillary Clinton, a powerful, respected, well-connected expert in politics, against a fucking reality TV character, but 3 million people is still nothing to sneeze at. So where should my frustration with the state of US politics be directed?

For no one in particular (since nobody follows my shitty blog and whoever does has undoubtedly lost interest by now), here’s another Last Week Tonight segment that details the real problem Democrats in this country are faced with:

This one takes a little more patience to understand, but I think taking the extra time & effort to grasp the situation is far better than adding to the already-ample stream of irrelevant griping about a guy who really ought to just be forgotten.

We'll be drowned it boots like mafia, but yr feet'll still float like Christ

Well ill be damned... They were right

I'm drowning upside down, my feet are floating like Christ"
