John Oliver Can No Longer Ignore Donald Trump, Tears Him Apart Cathartically

There's nothing funny about Trump's candidacy ... except all the jokes.

OK, so I know we’re all still busy thinking about Leo finally winning an Oscar and Chris Rock going the extra mile to make last night’s almost entire 88th Academy Awards about their own lack of diversity, but if I could just direct your attention—for a few minutes—to what you were too busy to watch last night: Last Week Tonight finally giving us a segment on Donald Trump to laugh/cry at.

After you’ve finished watching, you can return to your regularly scheduled Oscars jokes, rehashes, and gifs, but don’t get too comfortable. A lot of states vote for their presidential nominees tomorrow, and this wakeup call may somehow seem even more startlingly relevant.
