Jordan Klepper used Trump’s Beijing arrival to mock the president’s CEO-heavy entourage, singling out Elon Musk, Tim Cook and Jensen Huang as his travel companions for the 3-day state visit.
The segment also seized on Trump’s pre-departure outburst at a reporter who asked about rising ballroom costs, when he replied, “I doubled the size of it, you dumb person.”
Klepper folded in a jab about Trump taking “your boys” to China and revived scrutiny around Jeffrey Epstein with an on-screen photo, while noting a little “distance” could benefit both Trump and the public.
