Donald Trump had a pretty rocky Friday. It was then that tape was released of the presidential candidate making incredibly lewd and vulgar comments about women to Billy Bush on an Access Hollywood bus. Because the video was released on Friday, most of our favorite late-night hosts didn’t get a chance to respond. John Oliver was among the first to respond to the tapes on Last Week Tonight, and he pretty much said everything that needs to be said.
“Last Sunday, I told you that if you looked above the clouds, you would see rock bottom,” said Oliver, explaining what he’d said last week about Trump’s discussion of Alicia Machado. “If you look up there now, just way, way up there, all the way up high, you will see right up in the distance where we were this time last week. Since then, we have sunk so low we are breaking through the Earth’s crust, where drowning in boiling magma will come as sweet, sweet relief.”
