- description: John Oliver has a complicated relationship with election season. Back in 2008, while working as a correspondent for The Daily Show, the British comedian was on the run from security at the Republican National Convention when he happened upon a group of military veterans. One of the vets, U.S. Army combat medic Kate Norley, helped shield Oliver from his convention foes. They began exchanging texts, and three years later were pronounced husband and wife. That was then. The 2016 presidential election season, on the other hand, has been a nightmare for all of us—including Oliver. Sure, he took home a much-deserved Emmy for Outstanding Variety Series, officially positioning him as the heir apparent to Jon Stewart, but he’s also offered up that very Emmy Award to Donald Trump if the former reality show host, who never won the Emmy for his outrageous competition series The Apprentice, agrees to deliver a concession speech should he lose in the general. “We did not want to talk about the election at all this week. We so wanted to give everyone a break,” said an emotionally drained John Oliver during Sunday’s edition of Last Week Tonight. And so, with a “a heavy heart,” Oliver addressed the recent fracas over Hillary Clinton’s Emailgate—including the vague letter FBI Director James Comey sent out on Friday informing Congress that the bureau would be examining thousands of emails that may be connected to Clinton’s case, and subsequent news reports confirming that the emails came from disgraced ex-congressman Anthony Weiner’s computer (Weiner was married to longtime—and long-suffering—Clinton aide Huma Abedin), stemming from a separate investigation into Weiner’s alleged sexting with a 15-year-old girl.
