This hurts so much to watch now. I remember when I still believed Trump was just a joke, and not a clear and present danger to our existence.
I just said that to my boss, how every year my FB post from the day he announced in 2015 comes up: "I don't know if Trump is the best thing to happen to the GOP, or the worst - but I guess we'll find out!" EVERY YEAR I feel a new pain of not realizing what was happening in that moment... FB will never let me forget.
This hurts so much to watch now. I remember when I still believed Trump was just a joke and the democrats weren't a clear and present danger to our existence
It's not Trump that is the existential threat of our time. It's MAGA. Christian Nationalist Republican fascists are a more immediate threat to our species and our future than climate change and organized religion combined.
At least the republicans hold primaries, the democrats protect democracy by appointing their nominee. No votes required 😂😂😂
You know what's scarier? Having a party that founded the KKK&was pro enslavement to be in charge....
25:20 just in case anyone wants to know:
Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart, Michael Bolton, Usher, Dan Reynolds of Imagine Dragons, Cyndi Lauper, Sheryl Crow, Josh Groban, John Mellencamp and of course, Mittens.
Believe it or not I came to the comments section just to try and find out exactly what you commented 🙌🏻😁 Thank youuuu
The audience seemed to be big fans of Usher and Groban.
@@mahdokhtnikakhlaq1937 Same
THANK YOU!
the first time i saw this episode, i only knew who cyndi lauper was XD (well i recognized michael bolton from the irs episode and usher looked vaguely familiar)
I think these shows are actually MORE relevant now. Holy shit.
It's clear that he learned about the deletion of the Colbert Report & Daily Show library and he was like "this isn't going to happen over here!"
Fr I’m so upset. F u paramount+
Wait... those shows deleted their old libraries of episodes? Why? How far back did they delete to? Seems like such a crazy thing to delete so much data that no one else has access to, and that is a useful tool in understanding public perception of historical events.
@@moogle68
With the daily show from the verry start to 2016.
And they deleted the entire Colbert report.
And why?
Official explenation was "it costs too much to keep it online".
They probably still have back ups somewhere in a storage building but the entire online library is just.......gone.
@@nielsmichiels1939 that's wack. I'm glad you didn't mean they deleted the back ups too, but that's equally weird for such a big show to complain about server storage space. It's never been cheaper, and that will only continue to become more and more true as time goes on since data storage technology will continue to get better and better.
@@moogle68it’s probably the streaming companies tbh
Well glad Johnson is only foreign secretary. Imagine if he was PM.
This is sarcasm right?
@@purplemuse320 yes it's just funny seeing these old episodes of people who reappear later.
I sure hope this Trump guy doesnt win!
There's absolutely no way he will, so pumped up for our first female president!
You must be joking.
There's 0 possibility that he becomes a president!! Even talking about such inprobability is insane of itself!!!
yeah I mean who would be stupid enough to fall for such a scammer?
I think its hilarious how this cheetos guy thinks he can win they wont vote for him 😅
VOTE LIBERTARIAN.
Watching this knowing Borris Johnson gets a promotion from this point 💀
SKOLLLEMOGEEEE
This... *cries*
And then a very disgraceful demotion 😁
It's far less stressful watching this show later, knowing this is all in the past. I know exactly how it turned out and I feel like my current concerns are so much worse.
Is it less stressful knowing Trump is going to win again? D: Because it probably is going to win.
Except once again, America is being asked to vote against Trump, but this time everyone knows what will happen if he wins. You don't necessarily have to love whoever is the Democratic nominee in November, but the world can't allow the US to be overrun with literal fascism. They're far too influential in our world for them to be taken over by someone like Trump and the Heritage Foundation. Don't give that bastard and his cronies another 4 years, or I seriously doubt there will ever be another fair presidential election
@@Neoyoshi-FFXIV “IT” referring to Trump, *THE ANTICHRIST?*
@@jenniferb.9404 Yes. xD I really need Kamala Harris to win so my sanity stays intact.
@@Neoyoshi-FFXIV I do NOT BELIEVE TRUMP will win! Moderate Republicans were in part responsible for *FIRING* Trump in 2020! They have even MORE reason to VOTE TRUMP OUT - Keeping him out of THE WHITE HOUSE now!
So the "Facts don't care about your feelings" crowd continues to scream about feelings being more important than facts. Years later and it's only gotten worse.
IKR😅.
watching this in 2024 to figure out what went wrong... realizing so, so much, so very much went wrong
You should start back at the very first episode of the show
People meme that Harambe dying entered us into the worst timeline, but it works great as a landmark for where humanity went wrong
Was so confused when I saw RNC and Brexit update 😂
I jago crazy
As was I
Same, lol. Also love your pfp!
@@ErutaniaRose thanks!
@@twooey8232 I meant OP, but I love yours too!
The whole feelings vs facts debacle really foreshadowed things, huh?
Trump’s speech was rather historic in nature.
That's what happens when a political party's ideologies are not based in any form of reality. It started with attacking science, and the scientific method, while pretending that anything written in the Bible is fact.
Except now the Genitally Obsessed Party screams “facts don’t care about your feelings!!” at Dems. The right has lost all shame and blatantly celebrate their own hypocrisy.
16:39 "Candidates can create facts." Oh my sweet summer child. Welcome to the world of Alternative Facts.
One thing I noticed, this audience hasn't been through a Trump presidency or Covid, they seem much happier to laugh.
Now we just laugh in pain
What was once incredulous mockery has turned to fearful (but justified) hatred.
I think the shows were also the best in the earlier seasons
...this feels so much worse now than it did then...
It doesn't just feel like it is going to be worse, the fact is that it is going to be far worse.
Ahhh yes the 2016 election, simpler times.
this sucked to watch today. how did we just let this all happen?
It is so great to see our country's greatest thinkers getting together to sensibly and respectfully debate each other to make sure we address the issues only after having explored all the possible solutions.
😂
Sweet. As a Canadian these old episodes are as close as we'll get to a new episode. Thanks :)
At first I was insulted by the harmonica dig… then I saw him play and was like “okay I get it… he’s a beginner.”
Melting my subscription feed John
yeah, im unsubscribing until this is over.
@@nullcypher bruh crying over 1st world problem of free content lmao
@0008loser
bro crying over a random comment xd
Bro, spead out the uploads. My feed is John slowly aging
First world problems much
I dont know about you, but i think Bernie Sanders might have been a slightly better choice.
Hillary would have won by a landslide.
Perhaps. But at least we have some more exciting candidates to look forward now than one month ago!
He would have lost though
@@michaelf8221Walz would be a fantastic candidate
Idk about Kamala
probably loses
You all are restoring my faith in humanity. Thank you for your kind words!
"Newt Gingrich is what a smart person sounds like to a stupid person." - Paul Krugman
All the impending doom aside, it is incredible to remember just how amazing this show has been from the beginning.
It’s incredible to see such kindness and love. Thank you all!
You all have filled my heart with joy. Thank you for your kind words!
And yet Boris Johnson had far more credibility than Trump ever would
Also 8:07 him saying “gay agenda” while Tchaikovsky (who was gay) plays in the background is funny
Yeah nobody really cares about gay it’s a stupid thing to focus on
Trans on the other thing is a real split issue
This is so surreal today. Wtf.
There's no way this Trump guy is going to beat Hillary LMAO, the dems definitely got this one
The options were a trainwreck monkey and an evil lizard.
Bernie would’ve beaten him but Killary threatened him and he bowed out
Watching this in 2024 feels surreal.
As a lifelong Dropkick Murphy's fan, I'm so fucking happy, and not even a little bit surprised.
Thank you, John Oliver.
I wish a time traveler would’ve warned us
I feel like Matthew McConaughey in Interstellar watching this.
John Oliver officially has the right to use the biggest "I told you so" in history.
LAST WEEK TONIGHT PLEASE REVERSE YOUR PLAYLISTS FOR EACH SEASON 🙏🏽
I kinda like it because it gets depressing to better this season
Oh how far we have come.
We should have listened to John.
Anyone else think this video should win an award for creativity?
These comments are like a breath of fresh air. Thank you for the kind words.
25:21 FOR MUSICIANS COMING TOGETHER TO TAKE A STAND.
YOU'RE WELCOME, JOHN.
I’m so glad keyboard tabby could also make it with his incredible contribution to the craft
The mastery of the craft is clear. Keep inspiring us with amazing work!
This is the party whose tagline is “f your feelings”. 8 years after this their whole platform is feelings.
If you come across this, please send your prayers and positive energy. I’ve been battling health issues for years.
Why post this
This man is at another level. Absolute brilliance. Thank you John ❤
The production value is so high. It's like watching a professional show.
It is a professional show…HBO
Who else watches this channel for inspiration?
The positivity here is heartwarming. Thank you, everyone!
Thank you JO and affiliates in that order
תודה רבה על הסרטון! 🇮🇱
You all are truly inspiring with your kindness. Thank you!
Thanks a lot from New Zealand! 🇳🇿
This is even funnier watching after PM Boris happened.
IT'S 2024 AND THE COUNTRY IS STILL DEALING WITH THIS GUY
I was so confused. I didn't realize this was an old episode 😅
Me2!😂
Nice to see this news bird when he was a bright and chipper Cockatiel instead of now, a slowly hunching African grey that looks more and more like he's trying to resist biting things as the years go by.
I'm a fan of the show btw
There's a gift for making people smile. Thank you for sharing it.
The positivity here is so refreshing. Thank you, everyone!
This is just perfect.
Thank you for always putting a smile on faces. The content is pure joy.
The passion shines through in every video. It's truly inspiring.
thanks for the thirty videos, out of order, in my subscrption feed 😃lol but for real cant wait to watch them all .
The entire libraries of The Colbert Report and the old Daily Show have been wiped from the Internet. John and his team are making sure that doesn't happen to this show.
I’m in awe of this video.
“From the top to the bottom, from the middle to the side”
Please do a primer series on project 2025. Short and easy to share and understand.

I wonder if there is a kid in the world named Brexit
Gingrich brought a feeling to a fact fight.
The talent on display is incredible!
Completely mesmerizing.
Thank you for the laughs y’all!
cyndi being able to sing this well still warms my herat. love you cyndi!!!
Another masterpiece!
Спасибо от всей души! 🇺🇿
This is amazing you’re putting these older episodes on UA-cam but why aren’t they on Hbo max?
The entire libraries of The Colbert Report and the old Daily Show have been wiped from the Internet. John and his team are making sure that doesn't happen to this show.
There's a perfect balance between education and entertainment.
This is why I love UA-cam.
Watching from 2024...
This video is fire!
Fascinating to watch this 8 years later. And now we stare down the third consecutive Trump GOP coronation.
Magic trick many more delivered. Scary how right John and team saw this that coming. Horrifying 😂
Keep producing this kind of content.
Asante sana kwa video! 🇰🇪
"Round here, nothing ever changes, round here"..
I constantly forget these aren't current episodes
this show is golden
2024 here, shi#'s about to get a lot worse.
I think they're uploading their archive (thus 30 videos within an hour) because paramount replaced it with an ad for Paramount plus
Hold on here, did a Tim Kaine joke a minute in get Gen Z to wear long socks?
John are you the effing reason I can't wear ankle socks, which are much cooler?
Absolutely flawless.
3:56 oh John, you sweet summer child 😂
waiting for the SLAP SUITS gold full episode 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Did anyone else notice the small detail at 5:23? It’s so cool!
On 2 May 2024 Johnson was turned away from his polling station for the Thames Valley Police and Crime Commissioner, after forgetting to bring valid photographic identification, a requirement of the Elections Act, which Johnson introduced while in office.
This non campaign song slaps
How do you keep the audience engaged with content like this?
Totally impressed by this.
Kaine was such a boring pick that I totally forgot Clinton ran with a vp
I'm in need of your prayers and support. Please keep me in your thoughts as I navigate my health journey.
Ultimate collab
