Trump Supporters Fail ‘Daily Show’ ‘Extreme Vetting’ Test
Donald Trump recently outlined a new screening process for immigrants, which he referred to as “extreme vetting.” The idea of the process is to ensure that immigrants who are coming into the United States of America share American values. Some of the key values that Trump was referring to were gay rights, religious freedom, and gender equality.
On Thursday’s The Daily Show, correspondent Jordan Klepper went to a Trump rally in Wisconsin to see if some of Trump’s supporters would pass Trump’s extreme vetting process. Klepper found that many of them said they supported Trump’s plan, but when he asked them questions about gay rights, religious freedom, and gender equality, their answers didn’t pass the test. For example, one woman said, “It’s important to have respect for everyone’s religion.” Then when Jordan asked her if she respected Islam, she immediately replied, “No.”
The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11 p.m. on Comedy Central.
