On Last Week Tonight John Oliver took a break from Donald Trump and the U.S. coal industry and turned his attention to Italy, a.k.a. “the country that gave us spaghetti, the Colosseum, and in a roundabout way, the guy who played Turtle [on Entourage].”
Oliver recently discovered that Italy is not run by a “Vespa in a tanktop” and instead is holding an election for a new prime minister. The current field of candidates is troubling, though. This is partially due to an alarming rise in fascism, which Oliver points out, is particularly worrying, because the last time Italy dabbled in fascism, they ended up with Mussolini, or “the Turner to Hitler’s Hooch.”
