Not a trump guy at all but hopefully he doesn't focus too much on trump for this season. His show went off the rails before the last break trying so hard to get after trump (that dead horse is being beat by everyone)

Just hope he keeps doing what he did the first 2 seasons that made the show so awesome.

Been waiting forever



A president who is so image obsessed that he has a $60,000 weave in his hair is such an easy target

I'm willing to bet the entire first episode will be about trump. There is just too much to cover.

I don't know, he could just as well do an entire episode on Alabama politics as well

His opinions and "facts" are irrelevant, he's not even American. Fake news.

Looking forward to it. I'm hoping he can get back to the previous 2 seasons of quality. Don't know if he can ever top founding his own church for extortion.

Granted I do think that Oliver is the best at busting Trump's chomps, but he needs to lay off of it a bit.

Also he needs to do a piece on Social Justice Warriors ruining America. It's an obvious one and something he hasn't gone after at all. It's the primary reason Trump is sitting in the Oval Office, and ignoring it any longer is dangerous. The only mainstream television guy going after it now is Bill Maher, and that's really it.

I think he's either going to go for an all out assault hoping for an impeachment or something, or he will go for the "EVERYONE is talking trump, we've decided to tackle problems that people forget because trump distracts from them"

Hopefully the latter

This season could be a make or break season for Oliver. I'm far from a Trump supporter, and I believe he does better than anyone else on destroying Trump... But he needs to walk lightly this season and stay away from Trump as much as possible.

It's the new "cool" thing to go after Trump, and what makes Oliver so good - is he goes after things nobody else is talking about

Because satirizing presidential politics has always been an obscure practice.
