A WGA East-member Q&A with Jordan Klepper, Ian Berger, Zhubin Parang

As a pandemic ravaged the United States, there was one oasis where Real America still thrived: The Trump Rally.

Now, in THE DAILY SHOW WITH TREVOR NOAH PRESENTS: JORDAN KLEPPER FINGERS THE PULSE – INTO THE MAGAVERSE, DAILY SHOW Contributor Jordan Klepper revisits his surreal year on the 2020 campaign trail, remembering the best moments, sharing never-before-seen footage and conducting all-new interviews with the people he met along the way. The Trump Rallies may be over, but their legacy lives on in this new half-hour special… as well as dozens of pending sedition trials!

Jordan Klepper, Host/Executive Producer/Writer

Jordan Klepper has been called back to duty to THE DAILY SHOW WITH TREVOR NOAH to provide a series of ongoing special field reports throughout the 2020 election season, reuniting him with the Emmy Award-winning late night series. In 2019, Klepper was the host and Executive Producer of the comedic docuseries KLEPPER. He is also well known as the host of THE OPPOSITION W/ JORDAN KLEPPER, for his one-hour investigative comedy special JORDAN KLEPPER SOLVES GUNS, and for his memorable appearances as a correspondent on THE DAILY SHOW WITH TREVOR NOAH, which he joined in 2014 under Jon Stewart and continued with after Trevor Noah took over as host in 2015. Klepper’s work in the field is a hallmark of his comedy, exemplified by his on-location pieces at Trump rallies, his special OPPOSITION episode spent “chaperoning democracy” with activist teenagers in a Maryland private home, and his SOLVES GUNS deep dive into the legislative red tape and partisanship obstructing progress on gun reform.
