Jordan Klepper Finds Only A Handful Of Trump Arrest Protesters

The Daily Show's Jordan Klepper went looking for all of the supporters that Trump called on to flood the streets of downtown Manhattan.

Trump told all of them that he was going to be arrested this week. Klepper found just a handful of nuts out there willing to go to bat for Dear Leader.

But after Donald Trump called on his supporters to flood the streets of downtown Manhattan this week ahead of his expected indictment, Klepper only had to catch the subway.

“So yesterday, I ventured all the way downtown and joined the media circus to observe this crowd of MAGA protesters that were definitely around here somewhere,” Klepper says in the exclusive segment. [...]

Instead of a January 6th-esque mob, Klepper mostly found a lot of other camera crews and a very small handful of Trump fans, including one “proud” supporter who felt the need to fully conceal his face and another man in a cowboy hat who admitted that absolutely nothing was happening outside the district attorney’s office.

“This was an unusual MAGA rally,” Klepper says from experience. “The numbers were low, and it was in my own city. However, the arguments over some basic facts were refreshingly familiar.”
