As you can probably imagine, immigration into the U.S. is anything but straightforward.
During the latest episode of Last Week Tonight, John Oliver breaks down the complexities of legal immigration — something Trump and other Republicans frequently refer to as the "good" kind.
He also opens up about his own pathway to becoming a permanent U.S. resident.

"I have been through this system, and I can tell you, it's rough," Oliver concludes. "When I finally got my green card, years ago, it was sent to The Daily Show and they surprised me with it at work — presenting it to me with a slice of apple pie and a Budweiser as a joke.
"Thing is, I was so relieved I nearly burst into tears. And that is when I realised, I had been worried about my immigration status every single day."
