“Daily Show” correspondent Jordan Klepper tore into Donald Trump’s supporters in right-wing media for their misogynistic attacks on Vice President Kamala Harris and those planning to vote for her.
“There’s a reason why America has the same number of female presidents as the Taliban,” he said on Thursday night. “There’s a certain type of person who thinks that voting for a woman makes you less of a man ― and that type of person is on TV.”
Klepper rolled a supercut video of voices in right-wing media circles ― including Fox News and Newsmax ― going on and on about manliness.
Klepper summed up their belief: “If you’re a man who votes for a woman, your penis evaporates.”
He also played a supercut of conservative media figures attacking Harris’ running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, by claiming the former football coach who served for 24 years in the Army National Guard isn’t manly enough.
Fox News host Jesse Watters even criticized Walz for using a straw to drink a vanilla milkshake.
“Yeah, real men don’t drink milkshakes with a straw,” Klepper mockingly agreed. “You crawl your way into a cow and drink it from the inside. Or you punch the milkshake and lick the remains off your hands. Or ― and this maybe is a long shot ― real men don’t have opinions about the right way to drink a vanilla milkshake.”
He reached one inescapable conclusion about these right-wing media figures.
“For a bunch of manly men, you guys are some catty little bitches,” he said.
But he also noticed that Trump himself doesn’t quite align to those right-wing standards of manliness ― and broke out the video as evidence.
