I said "well look at her you boys are going to have your hands full at school especially you Austin you're sister is going to be drop dead gorgeous" my sons are now 19 and 15 there baby sister is now 14 if I don't like girls near my son's why would I like boys showing up at my doorstep wanting to date my daughter and if Trump had it his way he'd be dating his daughter

Gee, I hadn't realized Jared was actually our president. It's like Trump gave him all the jobs he didn't think sounded fun... which was just about all of them.
I'm just imagining Jared about to get in that truck Trump was photographed in but before Jared could get in it, Trump pushed him out the way shouting: "No Jared! I wanna go in the truck! I'm the President!" Like a five year old.
That was a great laugh line but don't forget what it followed: "When it comes to lying about easily observable facts, the apple doesn't fall far from the orange." Unfortunately, the Trumps are so comfortable lying about easily observable facts that half of the people in America no longer care whether something is true or false.
"I see Jared as the Alexander Hamilton of the new administration... He's a 3 times listener, 0.5% talker." Sir, Alexander Hamilton famously *WOULD NOT SHUT THE HELL UP.* Jared is _not_ Alexander Hamilton.
It's a good joke, but it's so odd to hear the audience laugh so much. Trump is a monster, but most liberals seem to be upset that he is loud and ugly. His opinions aren't that far off from most American "centrist" politicians, just more plain. They're all prejudiced corporate cucks. People should laugh more at his terrible views and policies, instead of dying over orange and tiny hand jokes.

Let's face it, the reason people want to believe she's a better person than her father is that she's good-looking. It's a universal human failing to confuse beauty (such as it is) with other virtues.
Library of Alexander I'm completely in agreement. But, being someone who likes decent human beings, I actually, and truthfully, find her appearance, repulsive. I don't even find her attractive because of who she is as a person.
Most people are a better person than Trump, so you could well be insulting Ivanka. At least she hasn't indicated in interest in incest (like Daddy did).
Library of Alexander see I don't even think she's that good looking. She's way too skinny. I like some curves on my girls! Ivanka looks more like a weasel than a human being.
Kushner is the guy that somehow gets all the credit for the group project, even though his entire contribution was setting up the WhatsApp group on day one.

What’s does her being a Scorpio have anything to do with it? Horoscopes and signs mean absolute nothing. Much like Ivanka speeches, they sound good and can apply to anyone. Just enough information to seem like it’s giving you something, but in reality she’s saying nothing of substance.

In light of the covid response that Jared was in charge of (specifically getting testing kits and distributing ventilators at the beginning), this has certainly aged well.
Please keep Jared's hands away from the Veterans Administration. It took me too long to get my benefits, and I don't want anyone that has no idea what being a veteran is like changing policies in it.
Spicy Crabs Obama didn't do a perfect job, no president is perfect, but trump is a Narcissist moron with no class at all. The only thing trump wanted to be president was to go in the history book to feed his ego. He's trying to tear down everything Obama did to make him feel he's better than Obama, but it's not ever going to happen. Obama has class, trump is just crass. Obama never went around grabbing females by their pussy. You can by pro Republican, but are you willing to except an Orange Turd in the Punchbowl in the White House rather than admit you elected a Narcissist moron mad Manboy. If that's true, you are as bad as trump himself. I am not pro Republican or pro Democrat, I'm Anti Stupid.
I feel you there brother, I've been fighting for a year and a half now to get my benefits, I don't need this uphill struggle to get harder because they put someone in charge who has no idea what they are doing.
Man Ivanka is the QUEEN of non-answers. "What do you and your father disagree on?" Ivanka: "My father agrees with me on so many issues and on those we don't he knows where I stand". Thanks. That had zero informational content whatsoever. It was junk food in word form.
@Sonic Phil they said they would bring peace to the Middle East, usually that means they’ll bring peace to the entire Middle East by ending wars not 4 countries who weren’t at war with each other remaining at peace
To be honest, Trump gets Ivanka and Melania confused all the time. He seems to think Ivanka is the First Lady, just because she's the one the lives in DC and sleeps with him.
@@thekub32 The thing is, it's not always obvious to everyone what is a joke and what isn't. Especially if you are a public figure, as the sensationalistic media will find any excuse to accuse you of all sorts of stuff, such as supporting Hitler and his views.
Krombopulos Michael i think it's the fact that they don't say the first thing on their mind like trump does. i may be wrong and you be completely right or so on
Krombopulos Michael yes. and they give you the impression that they are thinking. even though they probably are not. but thats better than Donald of whom we can be sure he isn't. well, he may be thinking about sex with his daughter ... (what a creep)
It's funny really, Trump's voters hate traditional politicians with a passion so they voted for a man who speaks his (irrational, frequently meandering) mind, but then everyone is super-happy when two people who follow the classic politician's playbook get back on the scene.
It's 2023 as I write this, 5 years after this commentary was published. With hindsight, we now know that there isn't a single human being who could ever have been a moderating influence on Trump, including Ivanka. It's amazing how accurate John Oliver's assessments of Trump et al. have been when you take a look back.
“A Kohl’s mannequin who read a book once” feels particularly apt, given his strategy for the Middle East was to read a couple of books about the Israel-Palestine conflict and then not even invite anyone from Palestine to participate in the negotiations.
Just because an agreement between UAE & now BARAIN with ISREAL Trump thinks Trump should get the Nobel or as he spells it Noble - lets see if this actually does anything. Palestine is still not playing along, why should they they’re getting nothing.
@@LawOfNonContradiction The PA leadership have been the deliberate and methodical consequence of Oslo so that Israel can have its puppets doing the torture and subjugation of Palestinians in the West Bank. Even Israelis admit to that so this is no secret. Not to mention, when were these PA leaders elected by Palestinians democratically? Imagine forcing corrupt puppets on an oppressed people with no military, no air force, no navy or significant way to defend themselves and asking why don't they act decently? They acted exactly the way Israel wanted them to act.
Old Scottish Proverb: "It is better to remain silent and thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt." Any chance that might be the case here???
And just about every country will claim that the phrase originated there. I've heard it's varied (debatable) source more often any other to be Samuel Clemmens, a.k.a. Mark Twain.
President Obama went to Harvard and was President of the Harvard Law Review. However, his father-in-law questioned President Obama's education, can anyone believe the audacity? No knows how Jared even got there but Mr. Trump was ready to praise the fact that Jared went to Harvard.
Anasazi lmao he actually said that, how insecure can you be about holding a piece of plastic. South Park aren't gonna joke about the president next season because real life is already a parody
Jared could quite literally be the most privileged man alive today. Just think of all the advantages and perks that fell into his lap by virtue of a fortunate birth: 1: Brough up in a world of stupendous wealth and luxury as the intended heir apparent of his father's multibillion dollar New York real estate firm; 2: Gained admission into America's top Ivy League institution as a result of his family's generous donation to the school ; 3: Made manager of billion dollar real estate portfolios even before being handed his Harvard degree; 4: Inexplicably married into a similar Manhattan real estate dynasty destined for great political fortune; 5: Entrusted by his president father-in-law with executive duties he hadn't even the most minimum professional experience or qualifications to carry out; 6: Became beneficiary of his affinal family's enrichment at American taxpayer's expense during Trump's one (God-willing!) term in office. I know unbridled nepotism runs high in the world of plutocrats, but this level of hereditary privilege is tacky by even the standards of British royalty!
Yikes, I wouldnt want to be around the negativity, the dysfunction and costant self involved Trumps all of them sickos! They are the worst of the worst! Greedy pigs all of them!
I do "the kushner" every day. People think that I am smart just because I don´t speak much. Most of the time I am just thinking of old Simpsons episodes and nodding with the head.
You're not alone. Though I was severely disappointed when I first heard him speak in the news. John really got my hopes up. I still prefer this version
when donald said he had "sex" in common with his daugher, i took off my headphones and went to take a shot of tequila. i wasn't there or related to them and even i felt awkward as fuck
How does he know she likes sex as much as him? Do they talk about who they fuck and how much they enjoyed it while having dinner? Does that mean she'll divorce her husband to marry a younger one in a couple years? Does she go around grabbing guys by their dicks?SO MANY QUESTIONS!
The list of things jared was tasked with was so broad and complex with so many totally different and unrelated objectives, that the best job ANY person could do is hire teams of experts assigned to each individually. His oversight of these teams would be intermittent and divided to the point of being spread so thin, you might as well eliminate him considering how little he could do with each. It's like trying to work 15 full time jobs simultaneously, and by end of the day, the only thing you accomplished was driving to each place's parking lot, turning around and leaving. Lol
Yeah. And although it is clearly impossible for any human, including Nobel Prize winners with Elon Musk levels of effort and multitasking abilities, it is still very characteristic of Trump to think it is easy to solve anything. I think he truly believes everything is easy because to him it was.
The fact that everyone projects positive traits onto them, shows how biased we are towards attractive people. You can bet people wouldn't automatically view them 'poised' and 'intelligent' if they looked like Donald Jr.
@Annie Brown To be fair, Stephen Hawking is a very respected and beloved person whom, no offense to him, doesn't really look like America's Next Top Model. So, yeah. A lot of times, a good looking person is seen as someone who can be a likable person because "reasons" but there are also people who don't look so good and are really respected.
Hawking himself has talked about the "blind oracle" perception that some people have. You have a big loss in one field and suddenly people regard you as more talented in unrelated fields. Some of his fellow scientists have also quietly grumbled that he wouldn't be such a super star if he didn't have a disease, but since they probably agree he deserves a break and know Stephen didn't ask for it, they don't make a big issue out of it. So this is just a long-winded way of saying that people judge on superficial qualities. We project good qualities onto attractive people, and negative qualities on unattractive people, but the "blind oracle" phenomenon also exists for disabled or severely disfigured individuals.
though to be also fair, Stephen Hawking has spent decades proving he is one of the most intelligent men in the world. even prejudice can only go so far.
When you hear this family talk about how great something is, how smart someone is or how something is the best, you just know it doesn't mean anything. It's all air.

No, he attacks. He has a clear agenda and criticizes those who go against it. However, he has his reasons, cites his sources, and knows when to attack the leader and when to attack the followers. He doesn't call Trump supporters idiots for what Trump is doing because that makes no sense; they aren't controlling him.
So, Ivanka married a man who got into an Ivy League school even though he wasn't qualified, who had help from his daddy. I guess little girls really do fall in love with their fathers.
I think a lot of it has to do with the tone she talks in. It fools people into thinking that the things she says are incredibly thought out and profound
A good whore learns to speak soothingly, and neutrally so as to not anger the client, thus jeopardising both payment and physical health, and, indeed, bolstering his self-confidence, ensuring payment plus gratuity. And more sweaty old grunting man on top of her on a regular basis, at least til he bought Melania...
It's remarkable just HOW on the mark John Oliver was about Ivanka & Jared. Their continued occupation of jobs in the While House may be even scarier than Oliver surmised three years ago! This episode has, sadly, weathered well.
The election of Donald Trump as President came from a deep loathing of the state of politics in 2016. I worked for the Obama campaign in 2012, reluctantly. I fell for the lessor of two evils game our politicians play every election year. I fell for it once... never again. Our system has become increasingly corrupt and unresponsive to citizen concerns since Reagan's election. Democratic administrations have been the worst, with the agendas of both the Clinton and Obama administrations being more radically Republican than Reagan. Out of that frustration was born the makings of a situation where I not only was not going to support Clinton for president in 2016, I voted for Donald Trump. My reasoning? I KNEW Clinton would be a terribly corrupt President, continuing the dismantling of our country's foundations and our Constitution, all while making decisions motivated by speaking circuit profits rather than public service. She demonstrated this after resigning as SOS. Before she finally declared her candidacy she pocketed nearly $25 million in speaking fees. This included over $1 million from 3 Canadian companies who wanted the Keystone pipeline put in. Clinton was our very first #PrePaidPrez, pre-paid president. Presidents, since Reagan, have made hundreds of millions from grateful wealthy people running corporations (here and around the world). Reagan infamously facilitated the dumping of Japanese steel in the USA, and was rewarded when he was paid for speaking in Japan. Paid for by Japanese steel front groups, for one speech Reagan was paid $2 million. We didn't need another known corrupt politician to replace the thoroughly corrupt Obama, now making tens of millions through the speaking circuit... the way our elected officials cash in on the favors they do for wealthy people while in office. So Ruth, your blind support of Oliver is sadly misplaced and based on ignorance, probably willing, of the entire political situation we are in. Try to get the whole picture through journalists... not MSNBC, not a comedian with an agenda, not CNN... Journalists and political activists, knowledgeable and honest and competent... Shane Smith, Glenn Greenwald, Mary Holland, Brooksley Born, Steve Kroft, Leslie Stahl, Sharyl Atkisson, Edward Snowden, Julian Assange (who should be pardoned before President Trump leaves office), John Stone, Jake Crosby, Robert Kennedy jr, Andrew Wakefield, Tucker Carlson (Yes, a Fox news correspondent who reports like a journalist) and soooo many others if you take the time to look.

@@michael0156 I'm sorry you feel that way. But even the most corrupt Democrat wouldn't have done the damage to your country and the world that Donald Trump and his Republicans did.
@@Mijiraa Let's have a conversation. Please list the top three things that President Trump did that you say damaged the USA or the world. If you are European I can tell you some things he didn't do... 1. Trump didn't add to the flood of refugees heading to Europe from the Middle East - BBC article on EU refugee crisis in 2015 - archive.li/3zXYO 2. President Trump didn't cause the EU to pay Turkey to keep refugees in their country. (numerous stories available - here's one - Foreign Affairs Magazine - 2015 Syrian Refugees added to the 4 million in Turkey, arriving since 2011 - archive.li/UIPoH 3. President Trump didn't cause the EU to fund a Libyan Coast Guard who cooperates with Europe to return all African refugees to Libya, where they are subjected to imprisonment, slavery, rape, torture or death. 2019 Washington Times story on EU funding Libyan militias and Coast Guard to stop and/or return refugees to Libya, where human traffickers take over - archive.li/HpqnQ 4. Turkey's President Erdogan has recently opened the flood gates of refugees to the EU as a result of the EU threatening sanctions over Turkey's actions in Syria. Who is responsible for the majority of refugee crises coming from the Middle East since before 2011? within the Middle East there are over 26 million displaced people, living in their country or neighboring countries. Over 5 million have tried to reach Europe, and have been stopped, by the EU... erecting, through a variety of expenditures, barriers to reaching Europe as effective as any wall being proposed by President Trump on the Mexican border. But these barriers have come at a cost in human suffering that will never be fully measured... only guessed at. Who is responsible? That would be President Obama, Vice-president O'Biden, and Secretary of State Hilary Clinton and their hawkish policies which deliberately disrupted dozens of nations in the Middle East, sending over 5,000,000 refugees and counting trying to reach Europe. What has President Trump accomplished in the Middle East? No new wars - And this - Dozens of stories are available on the internet about this - Here's one - Three nations sign peace accords with Israel, 5 more planning to follow - archive.li/mkpW3 Let's see how long it takes O'Biden to screw this up and start new wars in the Middle East or elsewhere. This is just the tip of the iceberg of good things that President Trump has accomplished and a short listing of the very bad things a Nobel Peace Prize President did to destroy the lives of many millions of families in the Middle East, while waging incessant increasing wars throughout his presidency. As Always, For the protection of children, In the interests of truth and science, Michael Polidori I'm breathlessly waiting for the three most terrible things that President Trump did to the world and the USA. By the way, this corona virus crisis thing? Search for Executive Order 13295 to see how President Obama's modification to that order in 2014 caused our current fraudulent lock-downs. Other nations, like the Netherlands, also had their quarantinable diseases listings changed to add SARS or SARS-like respiratory illnesses. The European Doctors Alliance (actually ended up being a worldwide Doctors and health professionals Alliance) is calling for the removal of SARS from the disease lists and an end to the lock-downs. They have the support of over 100,000 medical professionals, researchers and activists worldwide... intelligent enough to recognize that although the virus exists, our governments' controlling actions are inexcusably unjustifiable and destroying our economies, livelihoods and lives of families and friends. As Always

“Every dark thought humanity has ever had, inhabiting the long-dead corpse of a Civil War-era plantation owner...” “I don’t doubt that there were a hundred people in a basement somewhere money-balling the ROI...” My two favorite jokes from this segment
The reason Trump tasked Jared with such huge tasks is so when they dont pan out, he has someone to blame. "Oh, I'm sorry Jared couldnt make that happen. I should have done it myself" Its sad that Jared wasnt smart enough to figure this out...
Scorch428 I was thinking the EXACT same thing. Sadly, he probably did know. But let’s be honest, who are we going to point fingers at when things go wrong no matter what... Trump. Good/Bad thing is, no matter what happens between 2016-2020, we will probably blame everything bad that happens in America on Trump. That’s how we complain😂🤷♀️ Does that make sense? No? Alright same

@@JuliaBl hopefully.i cant stand Trump or any of his little buddies. But they did make sure hospitals had what they needed in the beginning.

“The apple does not fall far from there orange” is the first funny “Trump is orange” joke I’ve heard in a while.
Other than that reddit comment about New Zealands wierd citrus man that is there voting maskot and some one replied "well you have a wierd citrus man as a president"
orange sphincter on bill maher's is a pretty funny bit
Bryce, unfortunately it does. But its still really f'd up. And an insult to fruits. The family is a disgrace. They've enriched themselves while in office and no one seems to be paying attention.
And I hate to say, what if it were Obama. Anyway, thanks for the laugh .stay strong and God bless.
Bryce this is one time we love the mixed metaphor 😅
In light of the covid response that Jared was in charge of (specifically getting testing kits and distributing ventilators at the beginning), this has certainly aged well.
Please keep Jared's hands away from the Veterans Administration. It took me too long to get my benefits, and I don't want anyone that has no idea what being a veteran is like changing policies in it.
I just want to stop by and say thank you for your service and it's damn shame benefits you deserve are so hard to maintain.
William Ridge Sr. Thank you for your service sir.
Thank you for your service but it is Obama to blame
Spicy Crabs Obama didn't do a perfect job, no president is perfect, but trump is a Narcissist moron with no class at all. The only thing trump wanted to be president was to go in the history book to feed his ego. He's trying to tear down everything Obama did to make him feel he's better than Obama, but it's not ever going to happen. Obama has class, trump is just crass. Obama never went around grabbing females by their pussy. You can by pro Republican, but are you willing to except an Orange Turd in the Punchbowl in the White House rather than admit you elected a Narcissist moron mad Manboy. If that's true, you are as bad as trump himself. I am not pro Republican or pro Democrat, I'm Anti Stupid.
I feel you there brother, I've been fighting for a year and a half now to get my benefits, I don't need this uphill struggle to get harder because they put someone in charge who has no idea what they are doing.
From time to time I have to rewatch all the episodes. John Oliver has helped me to endure up to now. God bless him and his Crew!
Man Ivanka is the QUEEN of non-answers. "What do you and your father disagree on?" Ivanka: "My father agrees with me on so many issues and on those we don't he knows where I stand".

tbh I get Ivanka and Melania confused half the time. And the way Donald talks about Ivanka isn't doing anything to help that.
TJ Hastie same here
It also doesn't help that Melania is young enough to be his daughter.
To be honest, Trump gets Ivanka and Melania confused all the time.
He seems to think Ivanka is the First Lady, just because she's the one the lives in DC and sleeps with him.
TJ Hastie Like him wanting to have sex with her? Totally normal.
No need to be confuse, they're both his wives.

Why does anyone think Ivanka and Jared are like the "good guys" in the white house? Is it entirely based on them being pretty?
Krombopulos Michael At this point I think it's just the bar being set very low. like six feet under.

Krombopulos Michael yes. and they give you the impression that they are thinking. even though they probably are not. but thats better than Donald of whom we can be sure he isn't.
well, he may be thinking about sex with his daughter ...

It's funny really, Trump's voters hate traditional politicians with a passion so they voted for a man who speaks his (irrational, frequently meandering) mind, but then everyone is super-happy when two people who follow the classic politician's playbook get back on the scene.
They don't follow the political playbook exactly. They play the Trump playbook but with a greater skilled appearance of dexterity.
It's 2023 as I write this, 5 years after this commentary was published. With hindsight, we now know that there isn't a single human being who could ever have been a moderating influence on Trump, including Ivanka. It's amazing how accurate John Oliver's assessments of Trump et al. have been when you take a look back.
I don't know why when John dismisses things with "cool" it makes me crack up.

“A Kohl’s mannequin who read a book once” feels particularly apt, given his strategy for the Middle East was to read a couple of books about the Israel-Palestine conflict and then not even invite anyone from Palestine to participate in the negotiations.
Just because an agreement between UAE & now BARAIN with ISREAL Trump thinks Trump should get the Nobel or as he spells it Noble - lets see if this actually does anything. Palestine is still not playing along, why should they they’re getting nothing.
To be fair, the PA leadership was invited. But they boycotted, and threatened anyone that went with prosecution
@@LawOfNonContradiction
Jared peace deals were with families that no-one elected and they will be erased soon
when these cruel regimes are toppled
Guess Trump practiced before excluding the Afghanistan government and Afghan Army from the agreements with the Taliban and USA.
@@LawOfNonContradiction The PA leadership have been the deliberate and methodical consequence of Oslo so that Israel can have its puppets doing the torture and subjugation of Palestinians in the West Bank. Even Israelis admit to that so this is no secret. Not to mention, when were these PA leaders elected by Palestinians democratically? Imagine forcing corrupt puppets on an oppressed people with no military, no air force, no navy or significant way to defend themselves and asking why don't they act decently? They acted exactly the way Israel wanted them to act.

Jared could quite literally be the most privileged man alive today. Just think of all the advantages and perks that fell into his lap by virtue of a fortunate birth:
1: Brough up in a world of stupendous wealth and luxury as the intended heir apparent of his father's multibillion dollar New York real estate firm;
2: Gained admission into America's top Ivy League institution as a result of his family's generous donation to the school ;
3: Made manager of billion dollar real estate portfolios even before being handed his Harvard degree;
4: Inexplicably married into a similar Manhattan real estate dynasty destined for great political fortune;
5: Entrusted by his president father-in-law with executive duties he hadn't even the most minimum professional experience or qualifications to carry out;
6: Became beneficiary of his affinal family's enrichment at American taxpayer's expense during Trump's one (God-willing!) term in office.
I know unbridled nepotism runs high in the world of plutocrats, but this level of hereditary privilege is tacky by even the standards of British royalty!

Pause video, scroll to comments
The list of things jared was tasked with was so broad and complex with so many totally different and unrelated objectives, that the best job ANY person could do is hire teams of experts assigned to each individually. His oversight of these teams would be intermittent and divided to the point of being spread so thin, you might as well eliminate him considering how little he could do with each. It's like trying to work 15 full time jobs simultaneously, and by end of the day, the only thing you accomplished was driving to each place's parking lot, turning around and leaving. Lol
Yeah. And although it is clearly impossible for any human, including Nobel Prize winners with Elon Musk levels of effort and multitasking abilities, it is still very characteristic of Trump to think it is easy to solve anything. I think he truly believes everything is easy because to him it was.
And then he didn’t even do that 😅
The fact that everyone projects positive traits onto them, shows how biased we are towards attractive people. You can bet people wouldn't automatically view them 'poised' and 'intelligent' if they looked like Donald Jr.
Annie Brown you are absolutely correct, and all caps guy, go the fuck home, you're drunk.
@Annie Brown
To be fair, Stephen Hawking is a very respected and beloved person whom, no offense to him, doesn't really look like America's Next Top Model.
So, yeah. A lot of times, a good looking person is seen as someone who can be a likable person because "reasons" but there are also people who don't look so good and are really respected.
Hawking himself has talked about the "blind oracle" perception that some people have. You have a big loss in one field and suddenly people regard you as more talented in unrelated fields. Some of his fellow scientists have also quietly grumbled that he wouldn't be such a super star if he didn't have a disease, but since they probably agree he deserves a break and know Stephen didn't ask for it, they don't make a big issue out of it.
So this is just a long-winded way of saying that people judge on superficial qualities. We project good qualities onto attractive people, and negative qualities on unattractive people, but the "blind oracle" phenomenon also exists for disabled or severely disfigured individuals.
Ammuze this is just an awful comparison. SH has done miraculous things and is clearly the smartest known person on planet earth.
though to be also fair, Stephen Hawking has spent decades proving he is one of the most intelligent men in the world.

Thank you John Oliver, for being one of few people online knowing who to attack, why to attack them, and creating an argument to support your attack.
I don't think he even attacks. He just describes.
Tt Slasher He's given a script and reads it.
Thank the many writers in the shadow
He writes his script as well.
Tt Slasher very good explaination. you bring on point why this is such a good show.
No, he attacks. He has a clear agenda and criticizes those who go against it. However, he has his reasons, cites his sources, and knows when to attack the leader and when to attack the followers. He doesn't call Trump supporters idiots for what Trump is doing because that makes no sense; they aren't controlling him.
“The Apple doesn’t fall very far from the Orange” is easily one of the funniest things ever said.
So, Ivanka married a man who got into an Ivy League school even though he wasn't qualified, who had help from his daddy. I guess little girls really do fall in love with their fathers.
As much as I hate that moronic stereotype, it seems true in this case.
Freud for the win.
Apple didn't fall too far from the orange.
Scott Jewett OH SNAP
He wasnt qualified?
Hiring Jared and Ivanka violated federal anti-nepotism law.
That they were not paid is irrelevant.
She deserves prison time
I think a lot of it has to do with the tone she talks in. It fools people into thinking that the things she says are incredibly thought out and profound
Moni Pampeloni
Profoundly superficial.
See, and I immediately think "bullshit artist" whenever I hear her speak.
She sounds like a badly programmed bot on anti-psychotics.
A good whore learns to speak soothingly, and neutrally so as to not anger the client, thus jeopardising both payment and physical health, and, indeed, bolstering his self-confidence, ensuring payment plus gratuity.
And more sweaty old grunting man on top of her on a regular basis, at least til he bought Melania...
It's remarkable just HOW on the mark John Oliver was about Ivanka & Jared. Their continued occupation of jobs in the While House may be even scarier than Oliver surmised three years ago! This episode has, sadly, weathered well.
Dead on Right!!! These 2 have turned out to be Shitbags, like their family...
@@zachdancy5828 What a shock, eh! 🙄
The election of Donald Trump as President came from a deep loathing of the state of politics in 2016.
I worked for the Obama campaign in 2012, reluctantly. I fell for the lessor of two evils game our politicians play every election year. I fell for it once... never again.
Our system has become increasingly corrupt and unresponsive to citizen concerns since Reagan's election.
Democratic administrations have been the worst, with the agendas of both the Clinton and Obama administrations being more radically Republican than Reagan.
Out of that frustration was born the makings of a situation where I not only was not going to support Clinton for president in 2016, I voted for Donald Trump.
My reasoning? I KNEW Clinton would be a terribly corrupt President, continuing the dismantling of our country's foundations and our Constitution, all while making decisions motivated by speaking circuit profits rather than public service.
She demonstrated this after resigning as SOS.
Before she finally declared her candidacy she pocketed nearly $25 million in speaking fees.
This included over $1 million from 3 Canadian companies who wanted the Keystone pipeline put in.
Clinton was our very first #PrePaidPrez, pre-paid president.
Presidents, since Reagan, have made hundreds of millions from grateful wealthy people running corporations (here and around the world). Reagan infamously facilitated the dumping of Japanese steel in the USA, and was rewarded when he was paid for speaking in Japan. Paid for by Japanese steel front groups, for one speech Reagan was paid $2 million.
We didn't need another known corrupt politician to replace the thoroughly corrupt Obama, now making tens of millions through the speaking circuit... the way our elected officials cash in on the favors they do for wealthy people while in office.
So Ruth, your blind support of Oliver is sadly misplaced and based on ignorance, probably willing, of the entire political situation we are in.
Try to get the whole picture through journalists... not MSNBC, not a comedian with an agenda, not CNN...
Journalists and political activists, knowledgeable and honest and competent... Shane Smith, Glenn Greenwald, Mary Holland, Brooksley Born, Steve Kroft, Leslie Stahl, Sharyl Atkisson, Edward Snowden, Julian Assange (who should be pardoned before President Trump leaves office), John Stone, Jake Crosby, Robert Kennedy jr, Andrew Wakefield, Tucker Carlson (Yes, a Fox news correspondent who reports like a journalist) and soooo many others if you take the time to look.

@@Mijiraa
Let's have a conversation.
Please list the top three things that President Trump did that you say damaged the USA or the world.
If you are European I can tell you some things he didn't do...
1. Trump didn't add to the flood of refugees heading to Europe from the Middle East -
BBC article on EU refugee crisis in 2015 -
archive.li/3zXYO
2. President Trump didn't cause the EU to pay Turkey to keep refugees in their country. (numerous stories available - here's one - Foreign Affairs Magazine - 2015 Syrian Refugees added to the 4 million in Turkey, arriving since 2011 -
archive.li/UIPoH
3. President Trump didn't cause the EU to fund a Libyan Coast Guard who cooperates with Europe to return all African refugees to Libya, where they are subjected to imprisonment, slavery, rape, torture or death.
2019 Washington Times story on EU funding Libyan militias and Coast Guard to stop and/or return refugees to Libya, where human traffickers take over - archive.li/HpqnQ
4. Turkey's President Erdogan has recently opened the flood gates of refugees to the EU as a result of the EU threatening sanctions over Turkey's actions in Syria.
Who is responsible for the majority of refugee crises coming from the Middle East since before 2011? within the Middle East there are over 26 million displaced people, living in their country or neighboring countries. Over 5 million have tried to reach Europe, and have been stopped, by the EU... erecting, through a variety of expenditures, barriers to reaching Europe as effective as any wall being proposed by President Trump on the Mexican border. But these barriers have come at a cost in human suffering that will never be fully measured... only guessed at.
Who is responsible? That would be President Obama, Vice-president O'Biden, and Secretary of State Hilary Clinton and their hawkish policies which deliberately disrupted dozens of nations in the Middle East, sending over 5,000,000 refugees and counting trying to reach Europe.
What has President Trump accomplished in the Middle East?
No new wars -
And this - Dozens of stories are available on the internet about this - Here's one -
Three nations sign peace accords with Israel, 5 more planning to follow - archive.li/mkpW3
Let's see how long it takes O'Biden to screw this up and start new wars in the Middle East or elsewhere.
This is just the tip of the iceberg of good things that President Trump has accomplished and a short listing of the very bad things a Nobel Peace Prize President did to destroy the lives of many millions of families in the Middle East, while waging incessant increasing wars throughout his presidency.
As Always,
For the protection of children,
In the interests of truth and science,
Michael Polidori
I'm breathlessly waiting for the three most terrible things that President Trump did to the world and the USA.
By the way, this corona virus crisis thing?
Search for Executive Order 13295 to see how President Obama's modification to that order in 2014 caused our current fraudulent lock-downs.
Other nations, like the Netherlands, also had their quarantinable diseases listings changed to add SARS or SARS-like respiratory illnesses.
The European Doctors Alliance (actually ended up being a worldwide Doctors and health professionals Alliance) is calling for the removal of SARS from the disease lists and an end to the lock-downs.
They have the support of over 100,000 medical professionals, researchers and activists worldwide... intelligent enough to recognize that although the virus exists, our governments' controlling actions are inexcusably unjustifiable and destroying our economies, livelihoods and lives of families and friends.

This is phenomenal work! I want to see and applaud the whole team--the smart and clever people who did the research, wrote the jokes, and give us insightful commentary! May be I am wrong, but this (any) show is the work of a team of people, and if so I want to give them credit.
Watch the show on HBO so you can read the credits you pleb.
No, you're not wrong. John Oliver often mentions how much work his whole team does to achieve the quality they have on each episode that is aired.
This is the segment he should submit for Emmy consideration next year.
3:40 "You said the only possible wrong answer to that question. What's you favorite color? - Hitler." Lol, laugh of the day.
“Every dark thought humanity has ever had, inhabiting the long-dead corpse of a Civil War-era plantation owner...”
“I don’t doubt that there were a hundred people in a basement somewhere money-balling the ROI...”
My two favorite jokes from this segment
The reason Trump tasked Jared with such huge tasks is so when they dont pan out, he has someone to blame.
"Oh, I'm sorry Jared couldnt make that happen. I should have done it myself"
Its sad that Jared wasnt smart enough to figure this out...
Scorch428
Jared isn’t smart? I’m devastated.
Scorch428 I was thinking the EXACT same thing. Sadly, he probably did know. But let’s be honest, who are we going to point fingers at when things go wrong no matter what... Trump. Good/Bad thing is, no matter what happens between 2016-2020, we will probably blame everything bad that happens in America on Trump. That’s how we complain😂🤷♀️ Does that make sense? No? Alright same
Scorch428 No it was probably so he could be alone with Ivanka.
Not only that, but it keeps Jared busy so daddy can spend more "time" with his daughter.
But why throw fresh face under the bus while he had Eric and Tiffany?
Everytime I watch John Oliver I feel like I have gained so much knowledge and had a laugh at the same time.
Just wanna make note that you don't actually learn much of anything from John. If you do, it just means you didn't know anything to begin with and that you've been misinformed about a few things as well. Wanna learn something, go watch something actually educational, not a comedy.
Hamzat Gelaev when ppl think propaganda is knowledge 😂

Hamzat Gelaev right.... far better to learn from the Comments section of RUclips😂
Hamzat Gelaev I use to think the same way until I realized how biased his pieces were and the partial stories he gave whether it was for laughs or for pushing an agenda
He's the Alexander Hamilton of the Trump Presidency????
More like Aaron Burr.
*TALK LESS, SMILE MORE, DON'T LET THEM KNOW WHAT YOU'RE AGAINST OR WHAT YOU'RE FOR*
Kat Green Literally about to say that... I was so confused when the guy compared him to Hamilton in that he doesn't talk a lot. Like...???
LovelyIKnowx like this is the dude who was supposed to write a fraction of 25 papers and ended up writing 51 like wtf you mean he doesn't talk much!
Kat Green writing does not equal talking but he did talk a lot
Kat Green THATS WHAT IM SAYING!! Jared is NOT Hamilton! If anything, he's Burr.
.
2:00 Audience reaction to his responsibilities is hilarious
John Oliver is the most perceptive of the late night entertainers. He’s very funny too.
Apparently the smartest guy in Kushner s high school didn’t get into Harvard but a below par student like Jared did! It pays to have s rich daddy.
Michael Knapp That sure devalued a Harvard education.
A criminal daddy
Maybe Harvard is the lowest expectation in entire school, that or he paid his entry fee
@@HowToChangeName it was his daddy. Daddy Kushner paid a shit load of money to get Jared in. It’s true.
In further news, Machiavelli has risen from the dead to sue Ivanka for plagiarism.
Vi Haze She has an obvious get out if he dies suddenly, he's old af.
😆
Dangggg give this mf a scholarship
Best comment on this video... I lost it IMMEDIATELY. well done.
🤣👏👍
RIP Gilbert Gottfried

Kevin Ojoe Really? It got me really horny.

Kevin Ojoe Insesty much? What a rapy kind of guy.
Kevin Ojoe I threw up a little
I mean...we don't know enough to dispute it
Her voice makes my skin crawl.
Her breathless voice reminds me of that psychopath conwoman imitating Steve job and pretending to invent new ways to testing blood

Jesus christ, the more innocent time of april 2017. Roughly 1,397 years ago...fuck, this is so insane, everything predicted in the 2017 videos, aside from covid, came true
John is so fucking savage. Hats off.
My cat, my dog, my spider, and this rock don't speak and only listen... Does that make them intelligent?
I don't know about your cat, dog, and/or spider, but that rock sound pretty intelligent.
jewish spider must be awesome
This aged beautifully
My favourite thing in this Segment is the way John Oliver says DOPE
I am watching this in late 2019 and a lot makes sense now
Why exactly is a family member involved in the government, when it's a democratic government ?
Why was there no open hiring for the position that the kids of the president have in the government ?
There is no open hiring for presidential appointees. They are appointed by the president. Hence the name.
epSos.de He's building his dynasty. surrounding himself not with people who are educated on the subject but with family. l
Like a coup I tell you, a quiet coup.
Have you heard of Ivanka's new perfume? It's called Complicit.
Taylor Knight "if being complicit means walking into the room carrying the gentle scent of sandalwood, violets, and rosewater... Then, yes, I'm *complicit*"
Sorry for off-topic. But your cosplay is dope. The best Harley Quinn ever seen
that snl sketch was Fucking hilarious 😂

Jared is no Ken. As for Ivanka - plastic surgery does wonders.
hallmark1998 if I had plastic surgery and looked like her I would be angry! Although she is not ugly at all, I don't think she is beautiful either. Thank goodness for the "beholding eyes."
Gail Becker I agree with you in that I also don't think Ivanka is beautiful. Prior to plastic surgery, she was less attractive than today. Lol.
In light of the covid response that Jared was in charge of (specifically getting testing kits and distributing ventilators at the beginning), this has certainly aged well.
I gotta give credit where it's due. Hospitals that needed ventilators got them. I didnt hear about any that needed them and didn't receive them. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I, Spartacus let’s hope it’s enough for the coming ordeal.
@@JuliaBl hopefully.i cant stand Trump or any of his little buddies. But they did make sure hospitals had what they needed in the beginning. The response should not have been necessary though it's only because of his administration's failure to respond to the virus that we needed the amount of equipment in the first place.
"he's like Alexander Hamilton, he's a great listener-"
Wasn't he known to just...not shut up?
Short answer: yes.
I was just about to type that.
Talk less
Smile more
More like the Aaron Burr of the Trump administration
@@herminecobainjulesvernedas5177 and we all know how that ended.
*rubs ribs*
Sorry I played Hamilton in Edinburgh last year and my ribs are still fucking sore.
RIP Gilbert Gottfried, such an iconic and unique voice…unlike Jared’s. 12:38 is damn CLASSIC
