'Last Week Tonight' Host John Oliver Regards Donald Trump's Scandals More Troubling Than Hillary Clinton's
John Oliver is doing his part to make certain voters are aware of the differences he sees in the level of scandals presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have found themselves at the center of.
The "Last Week Tonight" host recently shared he sees the race for the White House between Clinton and Trump as "the electoral equivalent of seeing someone puking so you start puking and then someone else puking and pretty soon everyone is puking 2016."
Trump's Troubles run Deep
That being said, Oliver sees all Trump's past scandal as far more troubling than the ones that have dogged Clinton this election season, resulting in both candidates being viewed as far less than trustworthy by more half of all Americans.
Simply put, the HBO host doesn't see Clinton's Benghazi and private email server troubles as inflicting anywhere near all the level of pain some of the dealings of the man he describes as "America's wealthiest hemorrhoid" have caused.
It isn't the first time the award winning host has blistered the republican presidential nominee as less than worthy of the Oval Office.
Earlier this summer, Oliver castigated Trump as an "imploding star" and urged him to end his run for the benefit of the country.
"It seems that you have two really bad options here," Oliver told Trump. "If you keep going, you're going to spend the next 11 weeks ramping up hatred in speeches, injecting poison into the American bloodstream that will take generations to remove, and denying the country the contest of ideas that the presidential campaign should actually be."
Trump Advised to Walk Away
In Oliver's eye Trump's only real choice is to simply walk away and concede he is essentially in over his head.
"Tell America this entire candidacy was a stunt," he said. "A satire designed to expose the flaws in the system."
Earlier this month, Oliver's "'Last Week Tonight," won an Oscar for outstanding variety talk series.
