John Oliver Roasts JD Vance for Embarrassing Himself With Awful Harris Joke
John Oliver returned to Last Week Tonight from his customary end-of-summer hiatus only to find more evidence of Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance’s bad behavior. A resurfaced clip from Vance’s 2022 U.S. Senate campaign showed him “flop-sweating through some shitty jokes about Kamala Harris,” Oliver said.
Speaking to Ohioans during a campaign stop two years ago, Vance wondered aloud about a potential President Harris should Joe Biden step down and first tried insulting the current VP about her laugh, saying: “who I’ve heard called ‘Cackela Harris,’ because she has this weird cackle, right?” The audience provided no response in return.
Nevertheless, he persisted.
