“Last Week Tonight” host John Oliver just can’t predict how the whole Donald Trump Jr.-Russia affair will play out. On Wednesday’s “Late Show,” he told Stephen Colbert that his initial reaction was “probably ‘Wow’” after the president’s eldest son revealed that he’d met with a Kremlin-linked lawyer last year to obtain damaging information on then-Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton. But Oliver explained how that initial response was then followed by “the idea that this is something ― as long as we live in a world where something means anything.”“And I’m not sure we do anymore,” he said. “It seems serious, but do we live in a world devoid of consequences now? I forget where we are in human history.”
