John Oliver insulted Donald Trump last week tonight For the former president’s “cash grab” scheme as he runs for the White House again.
“This year, more than ever, everything President Trump does will be about making money,” Oliver said on HBO’s Late Night Show. “This year was one of the few times he was asked to actually pay the price for his actions, and he’s already made others pay the price.”
Mr. Oliver said Mr. Trump was “monetizing his own bad behavior,” which was summed up by the T-shirts Mr. Trump sells that feature a picture of his face and the caption “Innocent” on the front. You can do it.
The comedian went through a list of ways in which President Trump used his supporters to raise money for his legal problems.
“He talks nonstop about how he’s one of the richest people on the planet, and then he asks strangers for money in a hostage video that looks like it was filmed in the world’s most vicious haunted house. Man,” Oliver said. President Trump shared a video begging fans for donations.
Oliver also noted that Trump was selling Bibles, cologne, sneakers, mini speakers with Trump cartoons on them, and earphones in gold cases. Also worth noting was that the digital platform Truth Social went public, his followers bought shares, and the company’s valuation increased, resulting in “a better-than-expected stock price.”
In the main story of that night’s show, Oliver talked about food delivery service apps. In light of the allegations against Sean “Diddy” Combs that surfaced this week, he slammed Uber Eats in a Super Bowl commercial.
“I think Uber Eats is now regretting what they did last time,” Oliver said.

Oliver then referenced a memorable scene from the 2017 Luca Guadagnino film in which Timothée Chalamet delights in eating a peach.
“By the way, it’s nice to see peaches.” call me by your name I’m busy with reservations. Gay roles should be played by gay actors,” he quipped.
