Teary-eyed John Oliver begs reluctant voters to back Harris
The late-night host sent an emotional message to viewers in a passionate monologue days before the election.
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.

Ugh. It's always so cringe when late night hosts pull this kind of crap. They have literally become a mouthpiece for their corporate interests. That's your entire job! You are a breathing advertisement for Hollywood and big media agencies!
And you expect me to see your actors tears and think, hmm...yeah, they are like real people!
Give me a break.
Isn't john oliver a political satirist? Isn't his whole thing politics?
Who would you have take the role of pleading with people to vote a certain way?
The coastguard, perhaps?
The coastguard is clearly the first line of defense in the battle of hearts and minds......
Hasn't Jon Oliver on more than one occasion fired insults at the company that owns the network he's on?
Are actors capable of crying out of genuine emotion or is that something they lose after being in the business a certain number of years?
