And again, the criticism is that Oliver is on the side of people that want Trump to go away, and their tactics are failing miserably. Calling him a racist when he isn't only fuels the fire of his support, who are probably fed up of living in a culture that's so predominately left wing that they don't feel free to say what they want. Just like exposing him as a bit of a bull sh*t artist isn't going to sway the voters, because they like his brashness. They appreciate that he's a human.

What you need to do is treat him like any other candidate.

Also, I think people are underestimating how many liberals are going to switch sides and vote for Trump because of the state of the Democratic Party right now.
Demonizing everyone who isn't a white Christian sounds pretty racist to me.
