John Oliver says Trump uses one phrase when he has 'nothing' planned: 'People will be happy'

John Oliver said Trump has the tendency to use the phrase "people will be happy" to mask when he "has got nothing" planned in terms of policy, including DACA.

John Oliver returned to "Last Week Tonight" on Sunday to address a number of recent actions taken by the Trump administration, including the controversial decision to rescind DACA, or the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals.

Speaking on DACA — an Obama-era policy that prevented the deportation of around 800,000 young immigrants living in the country illegally after being brought to the US as minors — Oliver contended that Trump's series of decisions on the issue is "not a plan," after he played a clip of candidate Trump discussing the issue in 2015.
