Oliver also discussed Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Republican congressional candidate recently endorsed by Trump who has previously spoken of her belief in QAnon conspiracy theories.
John Oliver has condemned US president Donald Trump for promoting a “racist conspiracy theory” about Kamala Harris.
“It’s bad enough to encounter these conspiracy theories online, [but] it is worse to potentially encounter them in the halls of congress.”
“It f***ing isn’t. “And it’s frankly amazing how slow Trump is to respond to so many things like, I don’t know, public health crises, yet when it comes to amplifying racist conspiracy theories, suddenly he’s the f***ing Flash on cocaine.”
