“So the president cast doubt on someone who said she was sexually assaulted while also sort of implying that her parents don’t love her,” Oliver said. “To borrow a phrase, that’s one of the most shitheaded things I’ve seen from the standpoint of shitheadedness.”
Oliver was referring to Trump’s comment last week in which he said Hurricane Florence was “one of the wettest we’ve ever seen from the standpoint of water.”
