With not much time left before for America votes for the next president, Last Week Tonight host John Oliver is putting a lot of energy into dissecting Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump’s scandals.

The popular host explains in the video that both candidates have come under more scrutiny for their ethics than for their policies. He adds that less than half the electorate finds either candidate truthful or trustworthy, saying that if Clinton loses, she will most likely “sit there motionless not speaking until she eventually dies”.

Oliver even makes up a fake scandal about Clinton to test his audience, and moves on to an overview of the controversies surrounding both candidates.

But, says Oliver, while Clinton’s scandals may be irritating, her opponent is far scarier, with stories about Trump using funds meant for his charity, the Trump Foundation, for things like a three-foot painting of himself, a football helmet which has an autograph from New York Mets’ player Tim Tebow, and more.

Oliver ends his monologue by comparing the number of scandals with raisins in cookies. He shows a cookie to his audience, saying that Clinton probably has 10 raisins, more than average. But Trump?

In response and right on cue, hundreds of raisins rain down on Oliver, who emphatically states that Trump is a ‘raisin monsoon’ with highly compromised ethics.
