The Daily Show Presents: Jordan Klepper Fingers The Pulse: MAGA: The Next Generation
The Daily Show PROJECT
About This Project
Summary
In MAGA: The Next Generation, Jordan Klepper explores the world of young MAGA–a surprising pocket of young voters who emerged in support of Donald Trump during last year’s election. In 2024, Donald Trump did better with voters under 30 than any Republican candidate since 2008. To find out why, Klepper hits the road to finger the pulse of MAGA youth everywhere from college campuses to MMA Octagons.
Goals & Objectives
In MAGA: The Next Generation, Jordan Klepper uncovers why more young voters swung towards the MAGA movement in last year’s election, exploring potential reasons why, including economic anxiety and Donald Trump’s “rizz,” and whether the MAGA vibe shift is permanent or a temporary rebellion.
Results & Impact
MAGA: The Next Generation earned the best share ever for “The Daily Show Presents” special series and was the highest-rated “The Daily Show Presents” special in the past four years. Jordan Klepper shed light on a growing facet of American youth searching for answers and looking to find their tribe.
