John Oliver Offers Donald Trump His Emmy to Quit Presidential Race (Video)
John Oliver could help Donald Trump get what he’s been after for a long time come Nov. 8.
No, not the White House. An Emmy Award. That is, if Trump accepts a bet proposed by Oliver during Sunday’s “Last Week Tonight.”
On the show, Oliver played a clip of Trump from the final Presidential debate in which the GOP nominee said he should have won the award for his work on “The Apprentice.”

“Of course he wants an Emmy,” Oliver said. “It’s a woman, it’s gold, and it’s proportionate to his tiny hands. It’s basically Trump’s ideal mate. Here’s the problem here — it increasingly seems like if Donald Trump loses, we are not going to get the concession speech that the country badly needs, because he is medically incapable of accepting that he is a loser.”
“I think I might have the answer here, because I have a proposition for Donald Trump,” he continued. “Let’s bet on the outcome of this election; I will take the side that you win, you take the side that you lose. That way, if you lose, you still win. As for the stakes of the bet, I have something I know that you want.”
Oliver then pulled out an actual Emmy Award, most likely one of the Emmys “Last Week Tonight” has won since it began. Or it could be from his time on “The Daily Show.” History may never know.

“You don’t even have to take her furniture shopping!” Oliver said, referring to Trump’s comments about Nancy O’Dell in the leaked Billy Bush video. “Take the bet, Donald. Take the f—ing bet.”
