John Oliver Urges Viewers to Not Blindly Blame Joe Rogan, Young Men or Latino Voters for Kamala Harris Loss: ‘I Get the Appeal, but It’s Too Early to Have a Definitive Answer’
John Oliver urges viewers not to blame Latino voters, young men or Joe Rogan for Kamala Harris's presidential loss to Donald Trump.
“It is too early to have a definitive answer to [how Harris lost] but that has not stopped people from taking some big swings anyway,” the comedian and political commentator said during his first late night episode since the election. “I’d personally like to imagine that everything that happened is Katy Perry’s fault,” Oliver joked, citing the singer’s performance at Kamala Harris’s final rally the night before Election Day, where she sang three of her own songs before taking on a cover of Whitney Houston’s 1986 classic, “Greatest Love of All.” Finally, he ended the show sharing what “stage of grief” he’s currently in following the election: anger, particularly for the marginalized communities, such as immigrants, trans people and women, most threatened by a Trump presidency.
