Pretty much says it all.
John gives Hillary eleven minutes of coverage to the few non-scandal scandals, plus a glancing mention of her husband's twenty year-old personal non-scandal scandals.

(26,326 posts)I still don't get the outrage at emails and the Clinton Foundation, guess I'm too stupid to understand. I don't think Hillary Clinton's cookie has too many raisins in it. But then the end with the downpour of Trump raisins was good, why the seemingly false equivalency though. I have a small grudge against John tonight.

(16,104 posts)A 'false equivalency' is created when he spent as much time on the fake rightwing-generated scandals which are "irritating," he says, as he does on Trump's real and illegal activities which are just now being disclosed and investigated.
Oliver must have a Millennial viewer demographic - the ones most likely to despise both candidates.

(2,107 posts)But I would agree with John Oliver that Hillary's scandals pale in comparison to Donald Trump's. His strategy with scandals is basically the same as his strategy about lying: Inundate them with so many that the media doesn't know where to start.
