In his new Comedy Central special “Fingers the Pulse: Give That Man a Prize,” Jordan Klepper, a correspondent for The Daily Show, makes fun of President Donald Trump’s push for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Klepper goes to Mississippi to talk to Trump supporters, Oslo to hear what Norwegians think, and Portland to see the naked bike ride protest against ICE raids. People in Norway politely turn down Trump’s candidacy, but a few “Nordic MAGA” fans support him. The 2025 prize goes to Venezuelan activist Maria Corina Machado on December 10. Klepper joins the protesters in Portland, where federal agents are clashing with demonstrators and using pepper spray.
The half-hour special, which shows how Americans’ views on “peace” are split in 2025, airs on Comedy Central at 11:30 p.m. ET right after The Daily Show. It uses street interviews to make sharp jokes about Trump’s claim to be a peaceful leader while there is unrest at home.
