John Oliver Blasts JD Vance for “Scolding People for Enjoying Stuff” in Campaign Speech

As a seasoned gamer and avid follower of politics, I can’t help but find a certain resonance in John Oliver‘s words. Like many of us who have struggled to find joy in a world marred by hardship, I too have felt the sting of being scolded for seeking solace in entertainment or leisure activities.


As a follower of John Oliver’s insightful commentary, I can’t help but echo his sentiment that JD Vance, the Republican vice presidential nominee, might want to reconsider his approach when it comes to criticizing others for enjoying things during the campaign trail. It seems more productive to engage in constructive dialogue rather than scolding people about their entertainment choices.

As a gamer, here’s my attempt: “I was saying on Last Week Tonight yesterday, the Trump campaign is still attempting to dampen the excitement for the Democrats’ fresh ticket. However, JD Vance – who seems like he got halted halfway through his werewolf transformation – is struggling to turn Harris’ recent rally buzz into a negative.”

Last week, he played a video from C-SPAN featuring Vance delivering a speech in Byron Center, Michigan. In this speech, Vance spoke critically of Vice President Kamala Harris, who is anticipated to officially receive the Democrat nomination for president on Thursday at the DNC event.

“He stated, ‘She claims to be enjoying herself, yet under her leadership, many Americans are struggling. While she’s laughing during speeches, recall there are families in America today who can’t afford groceries. Her rallies and events might seem entertaining, but remember that there are parents who have lost their children to drugs or violence – parents who won’t see their kids dance again.’ “

In response, Oliver expressed his viewpoint: “Why are you reprimanding people for finding joy when there are more disheartening events taking place? That’s rather unkind, and it piques my curiosity about Vance’s behavior in different social settings.”

In a hypothetical scenario, Oliver pictured Vance taking his children to SeaWorld. He envisioned Vance saying something like: “Alright kids, you’re going to love SeaWorld. I’ll see you again at 2 o’clock. Just remember, dolphins sometimes engage in acts of aggression towards porpoises, which is known as porpicide among scientists.”

Oliver also made a joke at his own expense.

“In essence, constantly sharing disheartening information about your passions doesn’t lead to becoming vice president; instead, it makes people feel drowsy every week and adds to an appearance of aging quickly, much like a war-weary president. In other words, change the subject.” He then displayed a picture of himself and added, “Please move along from my area.”
