I may not like the man really at all, but being open and willing to go to the rally of the opposition, someone I’m sure he thinks of as “the enemy”, is very respectable.
Funny to see that coming from the guy who claimed Harris' rallies were filled with paid actors. I'm sure he wasn't paid to hold that sign, but it's still dishonest.
This is the nexus of political science, social psychology and the darkest underside of humor. As such it is completely compelling, informative and terrifying. Thank you - I think.
I am having trouble watching this.~ the merchandise ~ clips of him ~ knowing these people gave us their idol. Can not get his smile "We didn't have guns, it was a day of Peace and Love" smirk erased from my mind. What was his and Johnson's secret surprise? They found a way to rig/fix the election from learning how they failed to do so in 2020?
I give Edward credit honestly! This is the kind of conversations we need to have more often. The woman thanking him for the conversation is HUGE as far as respect and democracy goes.
It was not easy to shake his hand, but I had my kid behind me and I try to teach them to be civil. I'm just happy we made the cut so maybe others can learn something 💙
@ love that you’re teaching your kids this! I’m sure it was difficult to shake his hand, it would be for me too for sure; but definitely better for us to take the high road and be civil and respectful and teaching them to be better than those but never put them beneath us either! 💙
Taking a MAGA w you to a Harris rally & encouraging discourse w the attendees is so, so great. Thank you, Jordan, for your incredible work for democracy 💙🇺🇲💙

@@duramaxdad probably because Trump supporters don't generally show up in a positive manner to Trump rallies. The other guy was joking, something I fear you've lost sight of without a sense of humor? Genuinely, try hopping off the computer and taking a walk. It might help?
Speaking as a non-American, the whole world is watching in agonising tension. How can half of the USA voting population seriously consider voting for Trump. It is beyond insane.
It’s because with only having two legitimate choices people will vote on party lines no matter who the candidate is. The U.S. political system was designed so that one person or branch of the government could never have enough power to easily take full control. The President is not all powerful and can be removed after being elected so people will vote against a rational candidate for a crazy one just because they are against the positions of the other candidate.
Allen Lucas, the Scranton Fire Department firefighter’s union president, said, "None of our guys were holding those signs that I’ve seen. I can’t really control what other people do. I would assume the post I made I thought it would set the story straight that we didn’t endorse a candidate. If another candidate comes something like this happens again, I would have pretty much to do the same post,” I'm from the Scranton-Wilkes-Barre area and we all know it's a pro-Trump area. I believe a few Scranton fire fighters got those signs printed and handed them out. Being the corrupt area it is, no one will admit to it. Especially Mr. Lucas.
Odds are once Klepper and the women (don't know names) leave he will talk himself out of it because he doesn't want to face what he has been supporting. They do not have the courage to face what they have become.
Klepper, i know you're tired, we are too. Thank you for giving us the ability to laugh thru it I know it wasn't easy. I lost friends thru all this (probably would have lost them anyways), but know in the worst darkness, a light shines brightest. Thank you for some light
@Yoder023 You said that beautifully and I 100% agree with everything you said! Thank you Klepper for your dedication and your humor on such a serious and dark matter. #VoteBlue2024
They should be asking those Harris rallygoers if they finished high school or have at least a little college time because there's probably very, very few of them that didn't go to at least some college or didn't finish high school.
@gregpaspatis9425 I'm not sure why that matters? Either you're implying schools indoctrinate people to become Democrats or are implying uneducated people vote for Trump and I'm not sure either of those statements mean much of value. If you ask someone in America if they've completed high school odds are the answer is yes. General trends show those with more education tend to be more left-leaning. I would estimate that universities tend to have more diverse populations than typical rural towns and therefore exposure to new ideas and cultures probably breeds inclusivity which is one reason we probably see that difference.

Jordan Klepper is an absolute Daily Show Legend. He's right up there with the best. Let's hope for his sake he's visiting a whole new type of republican rally in four years. Christ! Let's hope there will even be an election. ❤
Hope is not a strategy. If Trump is successful, regards if he legitimately wins next month or via a successful coup, as they obviously have prepared for that scenarios, there won’t be another election. Trump has made this a 100% clear many times, so anyone who votes for this facist or doesn’t vote for Harris will help turn the U.S. into a facist state. And that will have very negative consequences for non-white people and white people who have publicly shared their disdain for Trump in the U.S. and very negative worldwide consequences, and the billlions of everyday people outside the U.S., like myself, have absolutely no control over what wil happen. I’m terrified to be honest, because hearing these people talk in a video like this shows me again there is such a serious lack of understanding of so many important things by tens of millions of people. We live in the same world, we generally see, hear & experience the same things and yet we come to very different conclusions, one is based on facts and the other one is based on a conspiracy culture (sources: Naomi Klein - Doppelganger: th-cam.com/video/NDWrHd-izFg/w-d-xo.html / Zeteo: th-cam.com/video/aL3XGZ5rreE/w-d-xo.html).
As a 35 year ago Naturalized immigrant woman from the Middle East I am soooo worried. 😢. I have voted blue up and down the ballot. I am praying everyday that we can be done with this shameful period of our history!
Birth of a Nation! Duh of course that's what he said to imply something in a trump rally. Here I am googling "Birth of an Asian" thinking wow what movie is that, to be quoted in a trump rally
@@Tuskegee_Brown it's crazy that 90% of the strangers you cross every day wouldn't be able to tell you what that is, or how it's being brought back to life.
@@oldrrocr It just goes to show that the base of both parties are not the most aesthetically pleasing people. At least the Trump ones are funny when they're discussing the latest conspiracy theories while buying knick-knacks.
“…he magically reemerged as a firefighter from Scranton.” 🤣🤣🤣I didn’t consider this until now, but I suppose if you’re selected to be behind Trump they just give people that look the part these signs to hold.
They absolutely do. For several years around 2016 you could always spot the same African American man behind Trump. He was the go-to "token person of color" in a sea of white for the Trump campaign. He became famous and got the nickname Michael the Black Man. The guy held some weird ideas, even by Maga standards. You can google him, there is also a Wiki page on him. Of course, all campaigns nowadays may select people to fill the screen behind the candidate, because they want to present the candidate in a certain way. Think of an "We are ALL Americans!" mix of men and women, white and people of color; maybe many young people, I could see that work for the Harris Campaign, which also targets younger voters; a "We are the REAL Americans!"-vibe with lots of working class people with hard hats; etcetera etcetera; a campaign can provide them with signs or shirts or whatever it is that you want to signal to tv and online audiences. I suspect it is one of the core tasks of stage managers for each rally.

@@thiacariSomething I've noticed of late is how Trump will say things like "It's terrible what they've done to our country" without going into detail who "they" are or what the terrible thing is. Allows the listener to superimpose their own prejudices and then convince themselves that he agrees with them personally.
Hilarious! "Do you know Shakespeare?". "I follow him a little bit." (Funny already) "Is he more like Hamlet, MacBeth or King Lear?" "Uhh... King Leader." 😂

I think you have to reach people in a way that they'll listen. I don't think these people hate children, i think they believe they have kids' best interest at heart, but it's based on misinformation that they truly believe. Saying something like "I believe you want what's best for children and to protect them, just as I do, but..." is much more effective than just screaming at him calling him a hateful bigot etc, which will only help solidify his beliefs and push him further. You have to have a dialog where you both come out at least with a better understanding of the other's views.
@@queenemmersthank you! There was at least 20 minutes of dialogue and I'm happy some of it made the cut! I will do everything I can to protect my child 💙
And she doesn't think history should be taught in schools because it is divisive. And yet, she supports Trump, who does everything he can to divide people. Pure doublethink.

As a Deadhead, who followed the band for 6yrs & saw around 300 shows, those women supporting Trump _clearly_ weren't listening to the message behind the music. They're embarrassing af PS: #StillVotingBlue
They are those fans of an artist (music, movie, games, anything) that get mad and annoyed at anyone that actually reads into the message of an artist's work. You know the ones, they'll call you a nerd if you point out that a movie or song is allegorical to something in real life XD
It's so odd to me that so many of the hippie generation are embracing MAGA so fiercely. I think some people just want to be part of a counterculture, and the actual issues at hand are less important than the pageantry and camaraderie of the movement.
I think you're missing the point, Heidi. Jordan Klepper's assiduously deferential approach is integral to his irony. The people he interviews have no idea he's a comedian or that they are being trolled. His respectful demeanor is also a Trojan horse to the jaw-dropping obtuseness of MAGA acolytes.
He’s not… 90% of what he’s saying are slights on what Trump has done or pointing out illogical/hypocritical beliefs that either fly over these people’s heads, they just take it, or they get cut on the edit.
when I was in second grade, our teacher told us all stories about growing up in the Jim Crowe south. that's stuck with me for my whole life, because it cemented that it really wasn't that long ago. not teaching difficult history to kids will make for dumb, unempathetic adults. which is what they want, but still...
10-year Navy vet here. My entire household voted for Kamala in rural PA. Even though there are a lot of conservative folks in the military, I didn't find a single one who wasn't appalled by how Trump handled Syria/Turkey while I was still active (among other issues). He's betrayed our servicemembers more times than I can count. He'd rather kowtow to strongmen like Erdogan and Putin than serve his country. The fact that Faux News can pretend Trump is not a warmonger is absolutely mind-blowing. Drone strikes under his administration were even higher than in Obama's term, his own general's had to talk him off a ledge from ordering first strikes on N. Korea, etc., etc. The guy is f*cking lunatic.
I love this format, the reconvening after hearing the absolutely astonishing things they say. Time traveler!?!? Weather control??!?! Purge!? The Jersey guy attending 93 rallies, holding up signs that he's a firefighter from Scranton. Wow, just wow.
nancyr and when MTG said that democrats could control the weather, i told my daughter that if we could, we would’ve sent an F. ing tornado her way long ago
@@janicearroyo-wright8529 I'm sure most people know this. But of course the MAGA crowd conflates it into dems sending hurricanes into red states. In case you think I'm making it up, here is a quote from MTG: "“Well some of them are listed on NOAA, as well as most of the ways weather can be modified...If your home or business or property is damaged or a loved one is killed by their weather modifications shouldn’t you be eligible for compensation?”
@janicearroyo-wright8529 cloud seeding is not really "weather control" on the scale of hurricane, which is often parroted by the likes of MTG. It's basically nudging rain from already formed clouds to tipping point. It's analogous to Chem 101 where you add salt crystals to a beaker of saline solution to push it to shift the reaction in the opposite direction, facilitating crystallization. It does form rain out of thin air nor initiate new weather conditions in an area.
They literally just repeat whatever he says. When they’re called out for what he says, they can’t explain it. They definitely can’t defend it. So they just walk down the list of talking points, until they get to the end until get they to the end; and repeat. Absolutely zero critical thinking skills being presented.

Me too. I voted for all of that with the exception of democracy, we're a republic so I voted for that. I voted for Trump and politicians down the ballot who support all that, which in my area happened to be all Republicans. I voted to make America great again.
@you are a 🤡. You have no idea what democracy or republic mean. We elect our government officials by way of representative democracy. We also utilize direct democracy by voting on ballot measures. We are also a republic because our representatives hold the power. Also the Democrat Party is a political party and has nothing to do with the term democracy, much as the Republican Party does not have anything to do with the term republic. Please go back to school and learn something for a change.
You really understood what this election was all about, and I applaud you for voting for all those things; even though we lost, we gave it our all, and at least we will go through the nightmare ahead with a clean conscience. Trump voters don't seem to have any understanding that there is a nightmare ahead, and they will have to live through it, too, but with the knowledge that they brought it on themselves (and on the rest of us). Although honestly Trump will probably just blame his policies on the Democrats and his voters will believe whatever he tells them.
He did get it. He chuckled at it. MAGA Edward might be a bit misguided, but he gets it. He actually talks with the other side (like Jordan does). He listens too.

It might not always work out that well, but it certainly makes me feel much better to respond only with positivity.
This was really refreshing. I'm a diehard Democrat. In 2012, I helped a family member run his Republican campaign for State Representative. It was also a presidential election year with Mitt Romney running for president. I knew the Republican talking points really well, and we won the primary. During the general election, I was able to share with Democrats the reasons that the community should vote for the Puerto Rican Republican candidate. Mainly because both parties primarily want the same thing. Unfortunately, President Obama, who I was supporting, was so powerful that our candidate got swept up by the blue wave. We actually got much closer to winning than Romney because I'm Puerto Rican and I knew how to court the Puerto Rican Democrats. Of course that was 2012. Since 2016, we are all on the NEVER TRUMP TRAIN.
I agree! He got some souvenir pics, he heard a sane person talk about what she is going to do for Americans, and he saw that they are not paid actors. He will have that experience to compare after Trump is gone, and he will realize that he was duped by the con artist.

I am having trouble watching this.~ the merchandise ~ clips of him ~ knowing these people gave us their idol. Can not get his smile "We didn't have guns, it was a day of Peace and Love" smirk erased from my mind.
What was his and Johnson's secret surprise? They found a way to rig/fix the election from learning how they failed to do so in 2020?
I give Edward credit honestly! This is the kind of conversations we need to have more often. The woman thanking him for the conversation is HUGE as far as respect and democracy goes.
This 💯
It was not easy to shake his hand, but I had my kid behind me and I try to teach them to be civil. I'm just happy we made the cut so maybe others can learn something 💙
@ love that you’re teaching your kids this! I’m sure it was difficult to shake his hand, it would be for me too for sure; but definitely better for us to take the high road and be civil and respectful and teaching them to be better than those but never put them beneath us either! 💙
@@mommykodos6859 You were so graceful, and your kid is really lucky to have you as an example. ❤️

Taking a MAGA w you to a Harris rally & encouraging discourse w the attendees is so, so great. Thank you, Jordan, for your incredible work for democracy 💙🇺🇲💙
He got called a troll off the rip.

"Melania says "unsex me" a lot." 😂😂😂😂😂 As a Shakespearean lecturer, I am 100% stealing that.
Mad props to Jordan for going through this for so many years. Just watching periodically is overwhelming for me 🍻
Speaking as a non-American, the whole world is watching in agonising tension. How can half of the USA voting population seriously consider voting for Trump. It is beyond insane.
Unfortunately half of the US voting population doesn’t vote. It’s half of the ones who do vote that support trump.
Yep, it is. As a American it's absolutely mind blowing.
It’s because with only having two legitimate choices people will vote on party lines no matter who the candidate is. The U.S. political system was designed so that one person or branch of the government could never have enough power to easily take full control. The President is not all powerful and can be removed after being elected so people will vote against a rational candidate for a crazy one just because they are against the positions of the other candidate.
There are some dumb people out there.
The sane half can’t wrap our brains around it either. Frustration levels are high…
I live in scranton, the firefighters were so angry about the fake signs
Allen Lucas, the Scranton Fire Department firefighter’s union president, said, "None of our guys were holding those signs that I’ve seen. I can’t really control what other people do. I would assume the post I made I thought it would set the story straight that we didn’t endorse a candidate. If another candidate comes something like this happens again, I would have pretty much to do the same post,”
I'm from the Scranton-Wilkes-Barre area and we all know it's a pro-Trump area. I believe a few Scranton fire fighters got those signs printed and handed them out. Being the corrupt area it is, no one will admit to it. Especially Mr. Lucas.
The Edward piece was gold...😂😂 But much respect to him for actually showing up to a Harris rally.. Klepper is great..lol.
Yeah, even if he is a MAGA-head, the fact that he was willing to do this is something special.
He and klepper have always been respectful of each other
@annaw252 yeah all of their interactions been cool and level.. Edward still says wild things.. 🤣
Jordan chasing Thomas Lennon around the car after the magat got suspicious had me crying. Way to think on their feet.
"What if the childless woman were a veteran, you're childless should that mean you have less of a say"
Man short circuits.
And admits that she got him on that. A rare show of humility!
The word duh comes to mind
When you need a flowchart to work out who has rights...
Odds are once Klepper and the women (don't know names) leave he will talk himself out of it because he doesn't want to face what he has been supporting. They do not have the courage to face what they have become.
His alarm bell went.... OFF. HEY , you're about to say something sexist
Klepper, i know you're tired, we are too. Thank you for giving us the ability to laugh thru it
I know it wasn't easy. I lost friends thru all this (probably would have lost them anyways), but know in the worst darkness, a light shines brightest.
Thank you for some light
Don't worry Jordan it could be the last election. 😮
@Yoder023 You said that beautifully and I 100% agree with everything you said! Thank you Klepper for your dedication and your humor on such a serious and dark matter. #VoteBlue2024
"but know in the worst darkness, a light shines brightest." < But that only works when trump's NOT president.
I hear that! 💯 💙🩵 🫂👣
Bringing a Trump supporter to a Harris/Walz rally is absolutely wild! Bravo, Jordan!!
Agreed! Definitely deserves a big award for this!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
They should be asking those Harris rallygoers if they finished high school or have at least a little college time because there's probably very, very few of them that didn't go to at least some college or didn't finish high school.
Agree, that was a great twist!
@gregpaspatis9425 I'm not sure why that matters? Either you're implying schools indoctrinate people to become Democrats or are implying uneducated people vote for Trump and I'm not sure either of those statements mean much of value.
If you ask someone in America if they've completed high school odds are the answer is yes. General trends show those with more education tend to be more left-leaning. I would estimate that universities tend to have more diverse populations than typical rural towns and therefore exposure to new ideas and cultures probably breeds inclusivity which is one reason we probably see that difference.
This may be the best installment of Fingers the Pulse ever. Every vignette is fantastic and it just builds. The arc and the editing and the interactions are authentic and beautiful.
Brilliant - and as a German I am torn between laughing and crying. They all seem to run into the abyss with a smile on their face.
Well put
And it feels like DE here is just 10 or so yrs behind on a very similar track (politically and the destruction from the favoring of neoliberalism)
"Run into the abyss with a smile on their face." I stopped when I read this. My mind was blown 🤯. This should be carved on a monument. 🤔
What about Höcke in Germany?

When Jordan offered up "Birth of a Nation," I almost spit my coffee out. That was hilarious, and you know that dude had no idea what that referred to.
Saaaame except tea haha
They are not smart people.
I had to come down to the comments and make sure others were talking about that moment...freaking hilarious 😂😂
Same, this got me!

Jordan Klepper is a treasure - so smart, quick and witty. I love that you brought Edward to a Harris rally; that was brilliant.
when he slipped in that "Birth of a Nation?" question, I just about died.
I didn’t know Edward was a firefighter from Scranton! I salute you for your service sir!

Mind boggling lol
I caught that, too, and almost screamed 😂
I was wondering if anyone else caught that. 😂😂😂
Who in their right mind wants a "King" to rule the USA?? PURE INSANITY.
Imagine the strength it took _not_ to react to that statement in any way...
Jordan Klepper is an absolute Daily Show Legend. He's right up there with the best. Let's hope for his sake he's visiting a whole new type of republican rally in four years. Christ! Let's hope there will even be an election. ❤
Hope is not a strategy. If Trump is successful, regards if he legitimately wins next month or via a successful coup, as they obviously have prepared for that scenarios, there won’t be another election. Trump has made this a 100% clear many times, so anyone who votes for this facist or doesn’t vote for Harris will help turn the U.S. into a facist state. And that will have very negative consequences for non-white people and white people who have publicly shared their disdain for Trump in the U.S. and very negative worldwide consequences, and the billlions of everyday people outside the U.S., like myself, have absolutely no control over what wil happen. I’m terrified to be honest, because hearing these people talk in a video like this shows me again there is such a serious lack of understanding of so many important things by tens of millions of people. We live in the same world, we generally see, hear & experience the same things and yet we come to very different conclusions, one is based on facts and the other one is based on a conspiracy culture (sources: Naomi Klein - Doppelganger: th-cam.com/video/NDWrHd-izFg/w-d-xo.html / Zeteo: th-cam.com/video/aL3XGZ5rreE/w-d-xo.html).
As a 35 year ago Naturalized immigrant woman from the Middle East I am soooo worried. 😢. I have voted blue up and down the ballot. I am praying everyday that we can be done with this shameful period of our history!
Completing his question with "Birth of a Nation" was masterful.
Agree!
Birth of a Nation! Duh of course that's what he said to imply something in a trump rally.
Here I am googling "Birth of an Asian" thinking wow what movie is that, to be quoted in a trump rally
Unfortunately, for most of America, it went over their heads.
@@Tuskegee_Brown it's crazy that 90% of the strangers you cross every day wouldn't be able to tell you what that is, or how it's being brought back to life.
Amazing
Thanks for all your work Jordan
Edward, the trump guy, seemed braver than most to go to the Harris rally and actually carry on conversations.
Well done Jordan!
@@oldrrocr It just goes to show that the base of both parties are not the most aesthetically pleasing people. At least the Trump ones are funny when they're discussing the latest conspiracy theories while buying knick-knacks.
“…he magically reemerged as a firefighter from Scranton.” 🤣🤣🤣I didn’t consider this until now, but I suppose if you’re selected to be behind Trump they just give people that look the part these signs to hold.
They absolutely do. For several years around 2016 you could always spot the same African American man behind Trump. He was the go-to "token person of color" in a sea of white for the Trump campaign. He became famous and got the nickname Michael the Black Man. The guy held some weird ideas, even by Maga standards. You can google him, there is also a Wiki page on him.
Of course, all campaigns nowadays may select people to fill the screen behind the candidate, because they want to present the candidate in a certain way. Think of an "We are ALL Americans!" mix of men and women, white and people of color; maybe many young people, I could see that work for the Harris Campaign, which also targets younger voters; a "We are the REAL Americans!"-vibe with lots of working class people with hard hats; etcetera etcetera; a campaign can provide them with signs or shirts or whatever it is that you want to signal to tv and online audiences. I suspect it is one of the core tasks of stage managers for each rally.
Fact check: Fire fighters do not have beards. Smoke inhalation because a breathing mask that does not seal around the face can be deadly.
Yeah the people behind trump are handpicked are exactly what you think they are like. 🤣😂
Yeah, the “autoworkers for Trump” guy didn’t really have a physique matching an auto worker.
They've almost made projection an art form.
‘You’ve got me thinking here’ is a brilliant quote.
"I wish I could cite the source" > "Yeah, me too" was my favourite part of the video.
Tells it like it is = tells me what I want to hear.
Yeah, "in a vague way so that I can superimpose whatever thoughts I have as his"
@@thiacari “A more accurate representation of the psychology of the 3rd Re Ike would be to conceive of a partnership in wishful thinking in which the masses were self-deluded as well as other-deluded. Persuasion in such cases offers an idea of solidarity and the target of that persuasion is more co-conspirator than victim, an invitation to share in the creation of a hyperbolic fiction.”
Nicholas J. O’Shaughnessy, Politics and Propaganda: Weapons of Mass Seduction
@@thiacariSomething I've noticed of late is how Trump will say things like "It's terrible what they've done to our country" without going into detail who "they" are or what the terrible thing is. Allows the listener to superimpose their own prejudices and then convince themselves that he agrees with them personally.
That’s how populism works
From “it’s my child, not yours” to the “firefighters from Scranton sign” I think I hit all the emotions from that one man

17:46 this woman is a star, a queen, a hero. I'm not sure how she said what she said so calmly and politely while this man was saying this and then shook his hand and thanked him. It makes me angry watching him but I'm also so in awe of her.
It makes me so happy to see parents like her stand up for their children in the face of ignorance.
Truly. When she calmly said, "You don't," I felt all of her exhaustion in my soul. Her kid is so frigging lucky to have her fighting for them.
I think you have to reach people in a way that they'll listen. I don't think these people hate children, i think they believe they have kids' best interest at heart, but it's based on misinformation that they truly believe. Saying something like "I believe you want what's best for children and to protect them, just as I do, but..." is much more effective than just screaming at him calling him a hateful bigot etc, which will only help solidify his beliefs and push him further. You have to have a dialog where you both come out at least with a better understanding of the other's views.
@@queenemmersthank you! There was at least 20 minutes of dialogue and I'm happy some of it made the cut! I will do everything I can to protect my child 💙

"I dont think slavery should be taught in schools... Free R Kelly." 💀💀💀
You are the man Jordan, really look forward to you getting your own show. 🤞🏻🤞🏻
And she doesn't think history should be taught in schools because it is divisive. And yet, she supports Trump, who does everything he can to divide people. Pure doublethink.
I really hate these people and I can't help myself....they are all dumb as a rock and proud of it. I think they all have the same brain worm that RFK has, I know they are all meat eaters!!! Klepper you are loved by all those with a working brain!!
“Who you choose to have s%x in front - or with - that’s your business.” I guess Trump supporters can still surprise me.
he had his own show and they cancelled it
Jordan, as usual, I appreciate your comedic lens through which we can glimpse into the chaos and I’m glad you’re not alone! You and the rest of the comedic pundits we’ve watched these past 9 years have kept us sane. You must be exhausted!
As a Deadhead, who followed the band for 6yrs & saw around 300 shows, those women supporting Trump _clearly_ weren't listening to the message behind the music. They're embarrassing af
PS: #StillVotingBlue
I was thinking the same thing
They are those fans of an artist (music, movie, games, anything) that get mad and annoyed at anyone that actually reads into the message of an artist's work. You know the ones, they'll call you a nerd if you point out that a movie or song is allegorical to something in real life XD
There is a strong libertarian thread amongst the dead community, i have to acknowledge it even if I dont agree with it
Voted today in Ohio. Saw a Deadhead grab a republican voting flyer. I was shocked then and shocked to see it here. No offense but olds are gonna old.
It's so odd to me that so many of the hippie generation are embracing MAGA so fiercely. I think some people just want to be part of a counterculture, and the actual issues at hand are less important than the pageantry and camaraderie of the movement.
This episode deserves an Emmy. The bit with Edward was amazing and the kind of content we need right now
I appreciate how you keep it respectful when you're talking to people. Thanks for your service.
I think you're missing the point, Heidi. Jordan Klepper's assiduously deferential approach is integral to his irony. The people he interviews have no idea he's a comedian or that they are being trolled. His respectful demeanor is also a Trojan horse to the jaw-dropping obtuseness of MAGA acolytes.
He’s not… 90% of what he’s saying are slights on what Trump has done or pointing out illogical/hypocritical beliefs that either fly over these people’s heads, they just take it, or they get cut on the edit.
I know I couldn't have held it together.
@@eedre4864 I think you missed my point.
when I was in second grade, our teacher told us all stories about growing up in the Jim Crowe south. that's stuck with me for my whole life, because it cemented that it really wasn't that long ago. not teaching difficult history to kids will make for dumb, unempathetic adults. which is what they want, but still...
Jordan, I don't know whether to laugh or cry. But, thanks for this. 💙
cry... that America is at this stage 4 yrs later... definitely crying is in order
I love when Jordan or one of his guests asks a perfectly reasonable question and it absolutely shuts down the smooth brains of their interview subject

Women who talk themselves into supporting Trump will talk themselves into supporting anything. Wild world.
Veterans for Harris. Be a real patriot and vote Dem, not a maga cosplaytriot.
My dad, my brother and I are all veterans and we’re voting Harris/Walz!!
This veteran voted Harris along with my entire family. Unfortunately not in a swing state. Still - vote blue!
Amen brother!
10-year Navy vet here. My entire household voted for Kamala in rural PA. Even though there are a lot of conservative folks in the military, I didn't find a single one who wasn't appalled by how Trump handled Syria/Turkey while I was still active (among other issues). He's betrayed our servicemembers more times than I can count. He'd rather kowtow to strongmen like Erdogan and Putin than serve his country. The fact that Faux News can pretend Trump is not a warmonger is absolutely mind-blowing. Drone strikes under his administration were even higher than in Obama's term, his own general's had to talk him off a ledge from ordering first strikes on N. Korea, etc., etc. The guy is f*cking lunatic.
"Maga Cosplaytriot". DELICIOUS! 🙋
Unreal 2.29 "do you Know Shakespeare at all" ... response "i follow him a bit"!!! ... guy had no idea who they were talking about ..
Used to think his followers had elementary level education skills, this broke tha myth too.. 😂
And then he says “King Leader”
You mean you haven't heard his podcast, Midsummer Nights?
I love this format, the reconvening after hearing the absolutely astonishing things they say. Time traveler!?!? Weather control??!?! Purge!? The Jersey guy attending 93 rallies, holding up signs that he's a firefighter from Scranton. Wow, just wow.
Not saying weather control is a thing but cloud seeding has been around for a very long time. Dubai does it in an attempt to increase rainfall.
nancyr and when MTG said that democrats could control the weather, i told my daughter that if we could, we would’ve sent an F. ing tornado her way long ago
@@janicearroyo-wright8529 I'm sure most people know this. But of course the MAGA crowd conflates it into dems sending hurricanes into red states. In case you think I'm making it up, here is a quote from MTG: "“Well some of them are listed on NOAA, as well as most of the ways weather can be modified...If your home or business or property is damaged or a loved one is killed by their weather modifications shouldn’t you be eligible for compensation?”
@janicearroyo-wright8529 cloud seeding is not really "weather control" on the scale of hurricane, which is often parroted by the likes of MTG. It's basically nudging rain from already formed clouds to tipping point. It's analogous to Chem 101 where you add salt crystals to a beaker of saline solution to push it to shift the reaction in the opposite direction, facilitating crystallization. It does form rain out of thin air nor initiate new weather conditions in an area.
@@Dramaqueen-zj8tk I agree and did mention weather control wasn't a thing. I do think the uninformed conflate the two unfortunately.
They literally just repeat whatever he says. When they’re called out for what he says, they can’t explain it. They definitely can’t defend it. So they just walk down the list of talking points, until they get to the end until get they to the end; and repeat. Absolutely zero critical thinking skills being presented.
Proof that there are also degrees of mind within humans.
"I just want my country back" Lady, who took it!? 🤦🏿♀️
but it is on the signs! "take America back" So clearly it was taken by someone, right?

Me too. I voted for all of that with the exception of democracy, we're a republic so I voted for that. I voted for Trump and politicians down the ballot who support all that, which in my area happened to be all Republicans. I voted to make America great again.
@you are a 🤡. You have no idea what democracy or republic mean. We elect our government officials by way of representative democracy. We also utilize direct democracy by voting on ballot measures. We are also a republic because our representatives hold the power. Also the Democrat Party is a political party and has nothing to do with the term democracy, much as the Republican Party does not have anything to do with the term republic. Please go back to school and learn something for a change.
You really understood what this election was all about, and I applaud you for voting for all those things; even though we lost, we gave it our all, and at least we will go through the nightmare ahead with a clean conscience. Trump voters don't seem to have any understanding that there is a nightmare ahead, and they will have to live through it, too, but with the knowledge that they brought it on themselves (and on the rest of us). Although honestly Trump will probably just blame his policies on the Democrats and his voters will believe whatever he tells them.
“You’ve seen narcissism before, at least 93 times by my count.” How he didn’t get that reference is crazy to me.
He did get it. He chuckled at it. MAGA Edward might be a bit misguided, but he gets it. He actually talks with the other side (like Jordan does). He listens too. He's not persuaded, but that's his business. That's what it's like to have a decent chat with the opposition. People disagree and smile, after listening.
@@beenaplumber8379 Edward also seemed to know that the Furries/litter box story he was starting to tell was BS. When they called him out, he started laughing. Weird that he would try to pass it off as a legit story.
They never get sarcasm or irony. 😂
He got it. And just like the woman commenting about Carroll, they don't care. That's the thing: They know, they know, they know. They just don't care.
@@user-ud1gg1we8q Yeah, he knows better. I think the problem is that a lot of us, including him, see it as a game we need to win rather than a mutual effort to improve our country. Maybe that's his goal (winning the game), and as an individual, that's fine, he can have that. He's entitled. We'll never win his vote, but his insight into the opposition is valuable, and we can only tap into that by talking to each other. (I'm agreeing with you, not arguing against you. And I think there's value in understanding the opposition.)

I agree but I know I couldn't take much whining, endless meaningless rambling and hatred for too long.
@@javiercanoruvalcaba5070 You just need to learn how to shower people with as much or more love than the hatred they release. I have almost reached enlightenment on this! I had a guy flip me off while driving the other day. I responded by blowing him kisses and yelling at him that I loved him. He smiled and laughed after that. It might not always work out that well, but it certainly makes me feel much better to respond only with positivity.
I skipped the usually videos I watch to see this first. Klepper is the best.
I absolutely agree 🎯💯
Same here
Yoda? Is that you? 😁
This was really refreshing. I'm a diehard Democrat. In 2012, I helped a family member run his Republican campaign for State Representative. It was also a presidential election year with Mitt Romney running for president. I knew the Republican talking points really well, and we won the primary. During the general election, I was able to share with Democrats the reasons that the community should vote for the Puerto Rican Republican candidate. Mainly because both parties primarily want the same thing. Unfortunately, President Obama, who I was supporting, was so powerful that our candidate got swept up by the blue wave. We actually got much closer to winning than Romney because I'm Puerto Rican and I knew how to court the Puerto Rican Democrats. Of course that was 2012. Since 2016, we are all on the NEVER TRUMP TRAIN.
I’m soooo happy that Edward was open to coming to a Kamala Rally ❤️❤️
I agree! He got some souvenir pics, he heard a sane person talk about what she is going to do for Americans, and he saw that they are not paid actors. He will have that experience to compare after Trump is gone, and he will realize that he was duped by the con artist.
@ I just wish that more people are willing to come to the table and see that we aren’t all raving lunatic baby killers! I really appreciate Jordan for bringing us to the people so we can see firsthand what is being said! He really risked his personal safety I’m sure! But, it needed to happen ❤️
As a Europen I'm always dazzeld about what americans think how democracy has to look like. it's crazy!
We've had it look a lot of different ways. As the saying goes, the devil's in the details.
@@lauradoll4248 if you ask me, it should be how to make life for the people in a coutry better. Not about: talking nonsens, spending billions for commercicals and have a bunch of pop-stars jumping around!
@@vici7 It's not like European countries have been getting better.
As an American, I'm always surprised that people think we're a democracy. We're not. Nowhere in our founding documents is the word democracy. We're a republic.
@@alphanerd7221she's not talking about that though. The trump rally and people are obviously absurd but honestly when the Harris rally stuff started, it also seems bizarre to non Americans. Politics being showbiz, and dancing and merch and gigantic rallies is just so weird. I guess it's just different cultures
Excellent as always. Jordan Klepper is a brave man.
This was fantastic. Jordan is a national treasure
