'An Insane Thing You Just Made Up': Jordan Klepper Nails Trump's Most Brazen Lie Yet
HuffPost
The "Daily Show" correspondent called out the former president over this new form of fearmongering.
“Daily Show” correspondent Jordan Klepper hit Donald Trump with a blunt fact-check after the former president broke out a new lie at his most recent rallies.
Trump has falsely claimed that schools are giving kids gender-affirming surgery.
“Can you imagine you’re a parent, and your son leaves the house and you say ‘Jimmy, I love you so much. Go have a good day in school.’ And your son comes back with a brutal operation,” Trump said. “Can you even imagine this?”
“No. No. No, I can’t imagine this because it’s an insane thing you just made up,” Klepper fired back. “Do you really think a kid goes to school one day and comes back with a full sex-change operation? That’s ridiculous! Americans getting free health care? Not happening.”
Klepper recalled his own experience with medical attention at school.
