  • Now that President Trump's impeachment trial

  • is wrapping up, a big question is

  • what did his supporters think of the scandal?

  • Well, our own Jordan Klepper went on the road to find out.

  • ♪ ♪

  • KLEPPER: Last week, I went to tropical Iowa.

  • Again.

  • And while all eyes there have been

  • on the Democratic candidates,

  • a certain recently impeached former reality TV star

  • showed up in town to get his own cup of Iowa nice.

  • Trump train, choo choo! Trump train, choo choo!

  • -It's just (bleep) awesome. -(laughs)

  • -I just (bleep) love it. MAGA! -Yeah!

  • (laughs) Oh, shit.

  • I've had nightmares of that shirt.

  • -Been to a Trump rally before? -No, sir.

  • -What are your expectations? -Truth.

  • Truth. At a Trump rally?

  • -Yeah. -Good luck.

  • However, all anyone's been talking about

  • is the impeachment.

  • And while 69% of Americans

  • wanted to hear from witnesses like John Bolton,

  • Senate Republicans wouldn't allow it.

  • So what did these folks think of the trial

  • as it nears its end?

  • I think the impeachment trial itself

  • is a joke, period.

  • -It's a shitshow. -We think it's a complete sham.

  • He hasn't done anything wrong.

  • How did we get here with no evidence?

  • -He didn't do anything. -He didn't do anything.

  • -He didn't do anything, right? -Very well-said.

  • Well, that's it, right? He didn't do anything.

  • -He didn't do anything. -So we should let everybody testify.

  • -Correct. Oh. -Yeah.

  • Uh, oh, yeah.

  • -No. No. -No.

  • -Do you think John Bolton should testify? -No.

  • -Why not? -Well, he could testify,

  • but I think he's, uh, vengeful for getting fired from his job.

  • -I think he's a liar. -John Bolton's a liar?

  • -Absolutely. -There should be a system set up

  • where he takes an oath, and then under oath,

  • he tells the truth. Otherwise, he's punished.

  • I think there should be, yeah.

  • And maybe there's a judge who's put in charge.

  • -Like, the highest judge in the land. -Right.

  • Appointed by a Republican.

  • -And then we can all see what he has to say. -(laughs)

  • -Would you be for a system like that? -Sure.

  • KLEPPER: While they seem to want firsthand information

  • from witnesses, they definitely didn't want

  • witnesses with firsthand information.

  • Regardless, they're sticking

  • to Trump's favorite old defense.

  • I've read the transcript for verba... Not verbatim,

  • but I've read the transcript, meaning, like,

  • I've watched everybody read it on the news.

  • -I haven't seen the transcript. -You know that's not what

  • "reading the transcript" means.

  • -But you've watched people read the transcript. -Right.

  • I haven't personally read the transcript.

  • Have you read the transcript? No. (laughs)

  • I-I have. Spoiler alert.

  • He asked a foreign country to interfere in our election.

  • -(laughs) -It's crazy, right?

  • It's (bleep) crazy.

  • You know what? I've explored this one before.

  • But luckily, Trump has two

  • or five new airtight legal defenses.

  • There's no... Whatever that word is.

  • Quid pro crow. (laughs) My lips are cold.

  • -It-It's hard to say. -Right.

  • It's even... even harder to convince

  • -other people that it happened. -New word.

  • New word I just learned, yeah.

  • There's no crime that's been, um...

  • There's no... A crime that he's been accused of.

  • -What does that mean? -What?

  • What do you... what do you mean?

  • They're not making an accusation

  • or, um, brought an actual, uh...

  • penal code...

  • Um...

  • Yeah.

  • You can tell he hasn't done anything wrong

  • just by, uh, his demeanor.

  • I mean, he would be trying to hide things.

  • If he were blocking witnesses

  • or evidence or something like that,

  • you'd be like, "Oh, you're hiding something."

  • -Right. -But otherwise...

  • Right. He's saying, "Let them...

  • -Let them see everything." -"Let them see everything."

  • "I'll prove whatever you want... want me to prove."

  • Right. But Trump is blocking witnesses.

  • -I don't care. -Oh.

  • But we were saying earlier

  • that if you're blocking something,

  • it shows that you have something to hide.

  • Didn't Obama hide his birth certificate?

  • (laughs): He did. And Trump found that thing,

  • -and it said he was an American citizen. -Yeah.

  • -I know. So who's got egg on their face? -So... Yeah.

  • (laughs) No, who has egg on their face?

  • Well...

  • KLEPPER: So, what do these supporters see

  • in our impeached president's future?

  • They're gonna impeach him again.

  • -Is there gonna be another impeachment? -Uh... (scoffs)

  • I... Probably all the way till...

  • For five more years.

  • Did you feel the impeachment was a distraction?

  • Not at all. I don't think...

  • He's got skin that is-is about as thick as it gets.

  • -Donald Trump is... -Yeah. Thick-skinned.

  • -He's... -Thick-skinned.

  • He gets mad if a celebrity makes fun of him on Twitter.

  • Well, the, uh...

  • Um, it's good...

  • I-I like his tweetings.

  • He should take a victory lap. It should have already happened.

  • Yeah, yeah. What should he do?

  • Alan Dershowitz got O.J. off. O.J. wrote a book.

  • -Dershowitz gets Trump off. Trump reads a book? -Yeah.

  • I mean, he can do whatever he wants.

  • Let's say it happens tomorrow.

  • -Trump beats impeachment. -Great.

  • -Trump can get on to running the country. -Exactly.

  • Like he... like he has been doing

  • for the past three and a half years now.

  • I mean, and now with... with, like, no impediments.

  • -No checks, no balances. -Exactly.

  • They need to have, like, more restrictions

  • on who can just come up

  • with articles for impeachment when nothing's been done.

  • Who's in Donald Trump's way going forward?

  • The only people that would be in his way are other Republicans

  • trying to get in office.

  • Yeah, he's finally... He's evolved this presidency

  • into a dictatorship that we can all understand.

  • -Exactly, yeah. -Yeah.

  • Wow. Do these folks care at all

  • about our president declaring himself absolute ruler?

  • I think I might know the answer.

  • I don't care.

  • KLEPPER: Exactly.

  • (cheering and applause)

  • Jordan Klepper, everybody.
