“The Daily Show” tackles the curious case of young MAGA voters in a special episode airing this Monday. Following the 2024 election, where Donald Trump performed better with voters under 30 than any Republican since 2008, correspondent Jordan Klepper sets out to understand this surprising demographic trend. Did economic worries drive young people to Trump, or is it simply his particular brand of charisma? And is it a trend, or something more permanent?
“Jordan Klepper Fingers The Pulse: MAGA: The Next Generation” sees Klepper hitting college campuses and MMA octagons – from the hallowed halls of academia to the fist-dancing, YMCA-soundtracked fervor of the Octagon – to take the temperature of young conservatism. Is it just a phase, or are we facing a generation rebelling against…well, the entire Constitution? Tune in to Comedy Central Monday, May 19 at 11:30 PM ET to see what Klepper uncovers.
