And yet cutting the education budget for decades was seen as no big deal. This is the result.

JK saying that "dictators prey on lonliness" is profound! I will be thinking about that a lot...

I’ve been watching Jordan Klepper’s segments of the maga rallies for years…absolutely entertaining 😂 The things they say are ridiculous and Klepper’s intellectual, quick-witted, sarcastic banter with them is such a joy to watch. He is brilliant, especially in comparison to the people he “interviews.” Thank you for your service…and the laughs 👏🏽

[maitland]

He's one of the most thoughtful and articulate people on TV. Thanks for your show!

Jordan Klepper is a genius! He is not just a comedian. This guy has contributed more to this fight than almost anyone and has done it fighting at the front lines surrounded by lunacy. The real journalists and activists and patriots who came forward to fight this fight will go down in history and I’m glad I’m here to participate and witness this pivotal moment in our existence!

Trump’s ignorance can’t be overstated.

Jordan Klepper is an absolute national treasure. I love him so much.

[wildtymes]

Whose going to tell the young white guys that being racist and sexist is NOT manly or alpha?

[gregcable]

Jordan is a better TV reporter than the vast majority on TV now. He would be absolutely great interviewing Trump or any of his surrogates.

Voted blue because I’m sick of maga 💙🇺🇸🦅

[moonlightpixie]

[justjayna]

[Ah]

Thanks for the essence of this presentation.

I am really getting tired of these MAGA/Trump supporters. At this point, i just can't respect you any more. I am sure most of you are hardworking Americans. But how can you be an "American" when you support someone like Trump? All i see is deflect, blame others, and hate full speeches. How much more do you want to harm this country? Because, that's what you're doing at this point. Even after the recent rally you would think that these folks would smarten up. But, no, it just gets worse. And this is BEFORE the election. SAD times....our society is going backwards.

Kamala is courageous, wholehearted, experienced, focused, competent, intelligent, professional, ethical, compassionate, talented, servant-leader, faithful, strong, and balanced.

I voted for MAMALA and coach in Georgia a few days ago.

I have no idea how Jordan Klepper has kept his sanity throughout all of mingling with the MAGA crowd. I thank him for doing so but wow is it a sad situation to listen to some of these poor victims who are caught up in the cult.

I just sent my mail in ballot from Oregon! 😊 Voted blue all the way!
💙💙💙💙💙

UPDATE
Was just told by Washington County, Oregon that my ballot was accepted and will be counted! 🥳🥳🥳

[Brittjones]

Honestly…Jordan’s take on this is the smartest explanation I’ve heard…Comedians see us as we are…that’s what makes them special!

[abrahamlincoln]

Jordan Klepper has more courage than all of MAGA.

I believe he is a time traveler from 1939 Germany.
