Last Week Tonight With John Oliver concluded its Sunday (November 3) broadcast by reminding viewers that it was the show’s final episode ahead of Election Day this coming Tuesday. In an impassioned and tearful plea, John Oliver urged the public to get out and vote for Vice President Kamala Harris citing the presidential hopeful’s policy plans.
John Oliver, who has been vocally critical of Donald Trump and his running mate JD Vance, began his closing monologue Last Week Tonight mentioning how the race is currently too close to call despite the recent Madison Square Garden rally where racist comments and jokes were delivered along with gaffes made by Trump while on the campaign trail.
While much of the monologue was a takedown of the Trump-Vance campaign from a comical angle, Oliver did illustrate how a Trump-Vance administration would put into power individuals such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who would oversee health policies according to Trump despite his controversial takes.
Oliver was clear in noting that the race is close as it is due to Harris herself and the connections to President Joe Biden, the ongoing conflict in Israel and Palestine, and the culture wars here in the States. However, the host said that despite this, he is casting a vote for Kamala Harris in hopes that if she wins, the next four years can bring about effective change.
