John Oliver Says Forget Trump: 'We're Going To Be A Little Bit On Our Own Here'

John Oliver blasted President Donald Trump for failing to give Americans accurate information about the rapid spread of the coronavirus across the nation.

“Try your best to tune out and not pass on misinformation in the coming weeks from sources like, sadly, the president,” Oliver said. “And instead pay attention to trustworthy information from the CDC, experts like Anthony Fauci, and of course TikTok hamsters. Always, TikTok hamsters.”

Oliver was referring to this little hamster, which he said managed to convey better information in 12 seconds than Trump has in weeks:



Oliver spent much of the show calling out Trump and his administration’s slow and confusing response to the outbreak. But he also urged viewers to forget all about the president for just a moment because there was a bigger issue to focus on.
