John Oliver on Trump's Charlottesville response: 'There's no point waiting for leadership'


“Sadly, we must begin with the events in Charlottesville, Virginia, where one person was killed and 19 injured after a car plowed into protesters following a rally of white nationalists,” Oliver began. Oliver went on: “It seems Trump’s first response to anything bad happening is always to immediately absolve himself of any personal responsibility. White nationalists seemed pretty clear about the message Trump had sent to them with his response,” Oliver continued, reading a statement in which they said: “Trump’s comments were good. “Because his first response is who he is.”He continued: “It simply doesn’t get easier than disavowing Nazis. So there is clearly no point waiting for leadership from our president at moments like this because it is just not coming.
