.Michael Knowles deconstructs John Oliver's unfunny joke for you:

@michaeljknowles It's a joke liberal relax 😂

@michaeljknowles The fact that you're so upset about it would make the joke funny, if it wasn't already. You guys are actual, literal clowns to us. Unserious people who can always be relied on to flip out at the slightest provocation.

@michaeljknowles Michael Knowles has been ‘triggered’.🫨 Period. It’s really that simple. Right-wingers love to dish it out, but definitely CAN’T take it.🥊

@michaeljknowles are you crying? It sounds like you’re choking up a bit

@michaeljknowles Never heard of Michael Knowles, but he's not even qualified to host a local flower or dog show let alone an actual program. God, this was painful to watch.

@michaeljknowles "It's really charming... He could go on really, really fancy vacations but he doesn't want to do that" I see you cut out the parts where John Oliver talked about all the fancy vacations Thomas was gifted that prompted this entire thing.

@michaeljknowles So Clarence Thomas can accept lavish gifts from corporate leaders with cases in front of the court without accusing himself... But the moment a liberal makes an offer for NOT working as a Supreme Court justice (the worst bribery scandal in the history)... It's a crime?

@michaeljknowles While the joke itself may not be the funniest thing I've ever seen, the fact that it makes YOU react in such a way is really goddamn funny, much like your career and joke of a program.

@michaeljknowles I saw you fighting back a smile!

@michaeljknowles There's no audio, Michael.
