[See NewsBusters for more.] Taking a rare break from Trump-shaming, Last Week Tonight’s John Oliver moved onto the next most opportune object of late-night derision: Vice President Mike Pence. Oliver moved to mocking the Vice President with a children’s book written by Pence’s daughter about the family’s pet rabbit, Marlon Bundo. The late night host, while very complimentary of the rabbit’s name, introduced his own book that turned Charlotte Pence’s innocent Marlon Bundo’s Day in the Life of the Vice President into a story in which an openly gay rabbit (Bundo,) his fiancé, and their queer animal friends deal with a hateful Pence on a daily basis.
