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.
So…because things were worse once, we should be okay with them getting worse now?
That’s bunk. You know it’s bunk. What kind of callous person do you have to be to even come to a conversation and say “we had it worse before…we managed to survive”?
Not everyone did.
now this is an EXCELLENT argument and it’s the only one i’m still wrestling with since they’re hellbent on the genocide no matter what i do.
i’m 100% sure that the damage that the democrats and the american system have inflicted upon my life are coloring my perception and i wish i could be sure that my conviction isn’t entirely based on it and i think i mostly continue doing it as dying wish from a loved one who was similarly impacted.
if kamala switches positions; then it doesn’t matter because then it will only be this and this alone is not enough to convince me.
genocide and this combined convinces me and kamala can’t help with this, but she can do something about genocide.
project 2025 is propaganda; i’m not scared of it and neither should anyone else be, we will survive it and thrive again like we did before.
