    Mindboggling that Joe Exotic is the only one of the 2016 candidates in prison
  • @juangarza24
    Who would have thought Joe Exotic would have been the biggest thing in America right now.
  • @diegolarrea7932
    Me watching this in 2016: The world is going to heck!!! And who the hell is that tiger dude??? What is wrong with the world? Why is this happening???? Me watching this in 2020: Ah the simpler times

    John was on the Joe Exotic train before it was cool.
  • John Oliver was so spot on with the meth comment...it’s like he knew.
  • @pyromanic8
    7:20 Is no one gonna mention how Canada seems to have invaded Alaska in this drawing?
  • @lfkw2484
    I don't know why everybody is still arguing, we have our candidate: Joe Exotic 2016
  • This is wild after listening to the Joe Exotic true crime documentary. Especially with him talking about “that bitch down in Florida.”
  • @erin1569
    "Or they would vote for the ghost of MLK, assuming he only said the 3 quotes that white people like." MLK was so great but many people ignore a huge part of his greatness.
  • @le-moons
    Funny how many people did not understood what he meant when saying things like "two boyfriends most of my life" and "bitch down in florida", when now people who didn't even watch the doc knows what he's talking about
  • @killblade6
    there was a perfect candidate...and we failed him
  • I'd love for him to do another segment on third parties, this time talking about the need for a multi-party system and how our electoral system makes it virtually impossible.
  • @CH-em2wu
    "You can't just fan the flames of a conspiracy theory and just walk away" That aged well.
  • My favorite part after watching part of the documentary is how in the clip he says, "I have a judgement against me by some bitch in Florida"
  • @richardemms3050
    Is it me or does Joe Exotic gesture towards the lion when mentioning his boyfriends?
  • @thatguyagain123
    That Joe Exotic cameo was completely blindsiding and I loved every second

    While Gary Johnson may not have been ready for prime time, the best reason I could think of to vote for a 3rd party was that if they break 5% of the vote, they are entitled to federal campaign money the next election cycle. Even an ill-suited candidate would shake things up by simply getting to share the stage.
