On October 24, 2017, The Opposition with Jordan Klepper aired its 14th episode of the first season. The show was a satirical take on political talk shows, with Klepper playing a character who was fiercely supportive of President Trump and his policies.
In this episode, Klepper and his team tackled a range of topics related to the Trump administration and the Republican party. One of the main segments focused on the recent controversy surrounding the National Football League (NFL) and the players' protests during the national anthem. Klepper used this controversy to argue that the NFL was unpatriotic and that the players' actions were a direct attack on the president.
Another segment focused on the ongoing investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. Klepper mocked the idea that Russia had played any role in Trump's victory and argued that the investigation was a waste of time and money. He also took aim at the media for allegedly exaggerating the significance of the Russian scandal.
In addition to these segments, the episode featured a number of comedic sketches and interviews with guests. One memorable sketch featured Klepper donning a chicken suit and going to a Republican party fundraiser to ask for donations for a fictional organization called "Americans for Inaction". The sketch poked fun at the idea that the Republican party was more interested in opposing Democrats than in actually enacting policies to help the American people.
Overall, The Opposition with Jordan Klepper was a fun and irreverent take on the world of politics and current events. The show offered a hilarious and absurd perspective on the news of the day, and provided a welcome respite from the often tense and serious tone of traditional political commentary.
