John Oliver detailed his new obsession with Hillary Clintons running mate and Americas cool stepdad, Tim Kaine on The Late ShowWednesday.
The Last Week Tonighthost joined Stephen Colbert to discuss night three of the Democratic National convention, which featured moving speeches from Vice President Joe Biden and PresidentBarack Obama. But Oliver was stuck on Kaine, shouting out all the Kaine-iacs in the crowd and lauding the VP picks dad jokes, terrible Donald Trump impression and face flexing.
He is a tall glass of Lactaid, Oliver said. Ive never seen anyone more about to break into a harmonica solo than that man.
Elsewhere, the two former Daily Showcorrespondents joked about how refreshing the DNC has been after the doomsday prophecies spouted at the RNC. The Democrats did the thing you always do at a political convention that the Republicans forgot to do, which is to say, Great country, its gonna be greater,' Colbert said.
Its an incredible thing to forget to say for four days, said Oliver.
At the end of the interview, Colbert had Oliver respond to to a new Gilmore Girlsteaser in which Lauren Grahams Lorelai wonders if the comedianwould find her hot. Oliver dutifully responded with a dad joke worthy of Tim Kaine.
