The French Election According to John Oliver

“The fate of Europe rests in the hands of a country that looks at snails and says ‘I have got to get you in my mouth.'”

John Oliver gave his opinion on the French election on his late night show Last Week Tonight and it was pretty much the most hilarious thing ever, especially since he managed to make fun of America’s electoral college system too.

Not only does Oliver perfectly describe the main candidates for president, but he also gets to the outsiders who are running that most people know nothing about, like Jaques Cheminade who thinks that the Queen of England was involved in international drug trafficking and whose platform includes a plan to colonize Mars.

Check out the hilarious run down of the French election in the video above. (Note: this video is NSFW and not for children.)
