TV funnyman John Oliver may be willing to start his own church and down a Bud Light Lime for a good cause, but he has no intentions of having a one-on-one chat with Donald Trump.

"I've got nothing to say to him," Oliver said Friday on "CBS This Morning." "He's said everything he wants to say. He has no internal monologue, that man. It's not like you're going to find that secret nugget he's holding back. He's an open book, and that book doesn't have many interesting words in it."

The "Last Week Tonight" host scoffed when co-host Gayle King joked that Oliver had endorsed Trump, who currently is second in the Washington Examiner's presidential power rankings.

King also asked Oliver, a native Brit, about his thoughts on the American political process.
