Jordan Klepper Spots Painfully Awkward Moment During Pete Hegseth's Hearing
HuffPost
The "Daily Show" correspondent took a closer look at the Senate confirmation hearings for the defense secretary nominee.
“Daily Show” correspondent Jordan Klepper said Tuesday’s hearings for Pete Hegseth amounted to a “quick sobriety test” for the defense secretary nominee, who has faced allegations of excessive drinking.
But Hegseth made an error right out of the gate: While naming his seven kids, he stumbled over one.
“Sorry, it’s a lot of them,” he joked.
“A little tipsy,” Klepper said, adding that a botched name was no big deal.
“My dad was always mixing up me and my siblings’ names,” he said. “And he launched perfectly successful counteroffensive rapid deployment amphibious incursions into Iran all the time.”
