[@gshak33]

The self pardoning double-entendre bit was pure comedic genius

[@hassannour1697]

Gabe Shakour Double entendre is a new word im happy that've learned

[@hakim6158]

This show is incredibely underrated. Very well written.

[@tennesseejermyn7705]

really?

[@alandry92]

hakim amalou it's a virtual clone of the Colbert report down to his manurisms. It's also a bad sign he had to pay to put this as an advertisement for me to even see his Steven Colbert impression.

[@thetruth4373]

Always thought so

[@ptavangar]

It didn't deserve to be canceled.

[@ZERO_O7X]

@@alandry92 Colbert has never been as funny in his entire career as Jordan is in one episode.

[@19thHour]

The whole metaphor...Kobi's delivery was excellent. Might have his own show someday!

[@naxT890]

Yea I hope he can take over the daily show. Trevor sucks.

[@rickyzeitler7169]

What makes you think Trevor sucks?

[@pettespizzaparlor3245]

his trolling of Alex Jones was superb.

[@dt6706]

naxT890 Yeah, two POCs can't have their latenight shows at the same time! Go pardon yourself.

[@Herehear49]

I agree. So well executed. And now for erecting a gallows off of Trump tower.

[@seandenny6430]

This shit is turning out to be better than the Daily Show! #GoKlepper

[@SamuelOrjiM]

Sean Denny you mean kobi

[@MsEditrix]

"Honked a truck horn like a big boy!" That ticker is savage. I want to buy it a drink.

[@lexresmark]

I don’t know why this show isn’t in the big leagues (in views) like late night with Stephen Colbert..The writing and humor, let alone the sarcasm is genius!

[@brenobacci]

Comedy Central is still an obscure cable channel, CBS is free on the airways. That would be my guess. I know you're wondering about YT views, but still...

[@rayflyers]

Late Night is Seth Meyers's show. Colbert has The Late Show.

[@christophereirby1]

The InfoWars-esque vibe of it is alien to a lot of TV only viewers.

[@andrewzeedyk3095]

To be fair I just found out about this this year and I love it. But I don't watch cable TV.

[@04awby]

The team this show has put together is really incredible

[@ZERO_O7X]

Comedy Central needs to being this show back because nothing has been funnier. Well...other than their own poor track record.

[@lizzfrmhon]

I love Jordan Keppler. He’s so funny!

[@MarceloGomez28]

500 days of pure adrenaline, everyday is like running from a car crash

[@kirkthiets2771]

Marcelo Gomez I'm fucking sick of it. Obama was not in the news every God, damn, day...

[@jokuvaan5175]

Kirk Thiets. I live in Finland and even here Trump is in the news at least once a day

[@armedwombat6816]

I live in Germany and it's hard to escape that asshat. That fucking ambassador he sent has just declared that he wants to strengthen the european ultra-right.

[@jokuvaan5175]

Armed Wombat. USA sending an alt-right embassador to Germany? That sounds weird and a bit terrifying at the same time.

[@philknight7954]

Marcelo Gomez If your evil witch Killary got in you'd be running from nuclear bombs...you bunch of fucking libtard zombies.

[@michaelgrabner2355]

500 days of not firing Ben Carson on the ticker, I’m dying.

[@mdomarobaid6551]

Kobi's segment just killed me... I literally fell on the floor laughing!!!

[@MoonFairy929]

Wow. This was excellently written and delivered. Outdid yourselves tonight. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@wienzard36]

one of the best bit so far with all the subtext, lol. Keep it up, Jordan!

[@graemenicholls2836]

I've got a raging Pardon coming on. Those gags just keep coming thick and fast

[@venumadhavrayasam2254]

This is the hard hitting journalism that I'm looking for!

[@ezelfrancisco1349]

With a subtext like this, I'm surprised that they didn't connect this with Steve Bannon

[@ntatemohlomi2884]

Ezel Francisco I kept expecting it but those damn geniuses just didn't bite. Too low hanging a fruit for them perhaps.

[@nathanlawrence7319]

Steve Bannon doesn’t call it “pardoning himself” he calls it “hailing his hitler“

[@vietnamd0820]

Ezel Francisco that would’ve been perfect

[@JK-vp2ux]

Yuck! I couldn't imagine "pardoning" Bannon!

[@sonyahannah]

BAAAAAAAD. Love it!

[@scoopityboop]

did anyone just pay attention to the ticker at the bottom?

[@FeyTheBin]

Barely. It's hard to look at two things at once, especially when I was watching at 2x speed.

[@jrodbball8244]

Yep! "Was able to find good people on so many sides" "Was hunted by witches" "Highest rating for a 4am hostage return" Haha, this piece was epic!

[@JeddtheJedi]

"Got the intelligence community to reduce the presidential daily briefing down to seven pictures of foods he likes or people he already knows" Just imagine opening the folder: burger, burger, Ivanka, fries, well done steak with ketchup, Michael Cohen, Stormy Daniels Sometimes the intelligence community tries to slip in a photo of Eric, only to draw blank stares from Trump.

[@kishanrai8622]

It's worth the hassle.

[@Mictla155]

Lol yea.

[@stopthecrazyguy9948]

That's how you do "adult" with kids in the room.

[@Stenno00]

Wow! The writing on this show is fantastic, give it up to those fine folks!!

[@acciousername6776]

According to 'the Mooch', Steve Bannon is the only one who can pardon himself...if you know what I mean ;)

[@chikasnotmadjustdisappoint6266]

IT'S ONLY BEEN 500?!

[@isaiahbruckhaus]

Eckhart of the Cygnus Knights Tired already?

[@shedd45]

959 days until he's finally gone.

[@azoth6641]

TOO LONG!

[@DavidHansson1978]

I'd say 500 days of misery. I bet he's tired of winning haha! :D

[@lordtoffington3664]

500 days of not firing Ben Carson listed as an achievement.

[@johntao6822]

WHY did it take a year for this to get to me? Jordan is a comic GENIUS with an ace team! Just BRILLIANT

[@Manuellaborer]

One of The Opposition's best episodes!

[@dianeismyname250]

This show is quickly becoming a favorite! So glad he has his own channel on youtube now.

[@germangama8162]

that was.... genious... and disgusting to imagine.

[@19thHour]

That feeling when you have a great Quidditch reference for the comments but Jordan Klepper beats you to it.

[@jayanty4048]

what is a quidditch lane?

[@jurastakaune1423]

I don't think I'll be able to hear "pardon me" without snickering and vomiting in myt mouth a bit a the same time 😂😂😂😨😨😨😨😂😂

[@reviewsplanet1578]

This is my favorite episode of the opposition CC pls bring back this show I’ll pay for subscription

[@ResidentTarantino]

This show just keeps getting better and better

[@lizmol-san]

Watched it twice...One time to hear them... Second to read the crawl below..They r hilarious!🤣🤣🤣

[@verengairuswa6104]

If this show doesn’t win an Emmy for their incredible writing then nobody should.

[@mikesanders8621]

Verengai Ruswa I've come from the future to bring grave news

[@pleaseexcusemeimavirgo7126]

now that was just good writing! wow!

[@ultra-extreme]

Jordan Klepper is one of my new favorite people

[@cathyo1089]

That was AWESOME!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@poetryaddict1]

This was so good I can't put it into words. Well done you two! 👏👏👏

[@kirkthiets2771]

The eyeball analogy about Giuliani was great!

[@DavidPDoder]

"Pardon me."

[@angiepa58]

omg, this is so awesome!!! Kobi's fantastic!

[@JarrodBaniqued]

Anyone reading the ticker?

[@daverumpel]

This might be my 3rd time saying this for a different video but this one is their best piece yet.

[@MuzikPimpinOGDOGCRISP]

Kobi you are LEGEND!

[@Toni-lo9ms]

Has it really been 500 years? Uh I mean days.

[@thatsthat2612]

It feels like 500 fucking years, I'm not even American but the rest of the world is suffering with you.

[@katb.6132]

Harry Potter and self pardoning in one segment. I am blushing and laughing.

[@celieboo]

Jordan! This was extra special man. You have. Way of mAking me laugh and cry at the same time! 😢😂😥😢😂😕

[@dillabean4183]

The ticker is the best

[@JumperWC]

Jordan Klepper, like everyone on the left, is a very sane, sensible and intelligent man. Love him, and his show is great!!!

[@westwasthecry]

I’m dying from laughter

[@lotrnerd5037]

I was disappointed the ticker started repeating at 5:50. It was dope

[@jennywiseman5062]

Lotrnerd 503

[@marcusjames9]

Trump will definitely try to pardon himself because we all know Melania won’t be doing it 😂

[@roguedravidan2746]

😂😂😂😂😂... TRUE.

[@JK-vp2ux]

Come on! There are still plenty of porn stars and playmates who are just a little TOO old and in need of cash and publicity. I'm sure he could still get a couple of them to pardon him.

[@Widdekuu91]

+J K That's expensive, he doesn't waste money like that. A cheeseburger with some extra mayonaise is good enough in bed.

[@audreymuzingo933]

I never seen this show before; it just autoloaded from the last video. Speaking of autoloading, the dude talking about Trump pardoning himself is HILARIOUS. But I swear for at least the first couple minutes I thought it was David Cross! Sounds just like him!

[@audreymuzingo933]

Oh forgot to say, SUBSCRIBING!!

[@raywhite9069]

The more direct klepper gets, the more frightened I become. It's getting close.

[@GuessWhooou]

Now whenever I hear the word "PARDON" I will be thinking of something else... Ewww

[@boisterouspanda]

GREAT satire! Very skillful delivery

[@citypunk326]

one of the best episodes hands down!!... I mean..... clearly!!!

[@cornstarch28]

This has been the best clip ever.

[@rosalierothner9627]

I still don't know why they cancelled this show - they were brilliant.

[@dextermorgan4686]

God, I miss this awesome and clever show so much. 😒

[@ichifish]

"He's got a raging pard-on." You guys are on fire tonight.

[@just1desi]

This was sooo good. Y’all on a roll. Epic.

[@Noblility]

Damnit the writing on this show is gangster as hell man!!lol

[@xPsychoBunny]

"His raging pardon"... white shirt ruined by coffee spittage. This might have been the best comedic segment of the Opposition so far.

[@SabaDhutt]

Last time I saw confidence and talent like Kobi, it was this kid Colbert on Daily Show.

[@ontaka5997]

5:30 Talking about ribs, Trump couldn't "Pardon Himself" with that big belly of his getting in the way.

[@ericlebert9505]

pure comedic genius

[@Jiterdomer]

500 Days of Hell.

[@redundancycheck]

A rashomon of alibis is a beautiful phrase

[@sonyahannah]

Please tell me that I'm not the only one who had to look up the Rashomon reference?

[@rumi3338]

“found good people on so many sides” 🤣😭

[@tlreclipse1126]

Just discovered this show and I already miss it....

[@Ken_neThT]

His Pard on XD

[@Locolewis4444]

I hear Steve Bannon "pardons" himself all the time.

[@judyluchsinger5585]

In November 2020 this is still relevant!

[@trvpyn]

Beautifully done fellas! Top notch 8D

[@aldoushuxley1617]

This was awesome, did anyone notice that Kobi meant to brake the charter in half but he could not and immediatly Jordan beats him to the point ? This guys are also great improvisers!

[@JK-vp2ux]

I'm feeling very uncomfortable now. Still grinning from ear to ear.

[@nancyprevost704]

"Guilt you just deny." Toad of Toad Hall is freaking out. It is going to be an eventful year!

[@truthlight2816]

Yet again not a wasted minute lol.

[@mathewworkentin5690]

This show is great 😂

[@davidkounah1567]

[@supersquare]

SquareB0t

[@abimanyuputra5185]

i'm starting to think "pardon" mean something else

[@TheKraetos]

Abimanyu Putra of course not. Pardoning is simply a political process in which the pardoner allows the pardonee to come off a stressful moment, effectively relieving the pardnoee and leading to the softening of a potentially hard criminal case

[@jamesvandoren545]

A certain rhyming word came to mind...

[@sonyahannah]

Superb double entendre.

[@xLymonx]

500 days 100 days + golfing... it must be nice for tax payers to pay for his private golf.

[@derekbeck1982]

Oh, you mean at the golf course he LITERALLY owns....Where he also conducts official business. You know where an incredibly LARGE percentage of deals go down and are closed at? That's right at a golf course, during a round of golf. Why aren't you bitching about Obama's 98 millions total in travel expenses over 8 years? I know, it's because it's 'your guy'. You lay in the bed you made, my friend. Nice try, you don't bitch about your own side, you have no right to bitch at the other. Oh he also owns property in FL that he pays for already, so housing doesn't factor in. Really we only pay for travel (Air Force One) and security (Homeland Security and Local Authorities overtime pay, which tax payers would probably be paying regardless. Considering it's our president, and they simple fact he's had more death threats then possible any president within the modern era, I'm ok with that. Maybe your 'team' should learn not to make threats towards a sitting president. Grow up and be an adult. Not a high school child. Because it's 'not my team'.

[@xLymonx]

Derek Beck The golf courses he literally own meaning he is leeching tax payers money into HIS OWN BUSINESS. I wonder what happen to all the right-wingers who condemned obama for traveling expenses but are quiet about trump golfing literally every weekend at HIS OWN GOLF COURSE which he made us all pay. Your logic about "not my team" is quite hypocritical since you are either blinded or just ignoring the fact that trump OWN MAR-A-LAGO. Where's the outcry for corruptions, personal gains and benefits, and wasteful spendings. So please save your narrow sighted view in your delusional safe space. I don't believe donald trump is making official deals at mar-a-lago, his golf resort was failing thats why the russian lent him money to keep it open. If its official busnesses that he's conducting, it would probably benefits the hands that fed him.

[@kenzie-.-]

I thought Bannon was the one that was, self pardoning? Oh. Look what happened to him.

[@tayyabkhan2228]

Well done!

[@ColoRADbro420]

"pardon me" will never be the same to me again

[@BryceChillis]

i laughed aloud at 'trumps raging pardon'

[@katiekane5247]

TRump of the dangling pardonsciples! Gr8 show guys!

[@GuessWhooou]

It just got dirty...

[@lordtoffington3664]

I love the newsbar.It made me watch it twice.

[@saritasi7819]

those accomplishments though hahahahahahahahahahaha

[@Leo_Lionhart]

how does Trump manage to drink ~6000 cans of Diet Coke in 500 days? I can't even finish 1 can......

[@djoakeydoakey1076]

Leo Lionhart That's exactly the readon why he is president and you are not!

[@JK-vp2ux]

It's to wash the taste of pardoning himself out of his mouth.

[@Leo_Lionhart]

That's the reason I don't want to be the president then. The only part I would appreciate is having sex with a porn star and cover it up with 130k. I just hope I was the one receiving the money, but I am not a porn star.....and no female president too.

[@Leo_Lionhart]

John The taste of collusion is stronger.

[@SkatterBrain]

I didn't like this show at first but it would seem Jordan is hitting his stride.

[@Mictla155]

It just took some time like the Colbert Report and the Daily Show.

[@bbopdlux]

Excellent metaphor...very funny stuff

[@slowpoke6743]

I pardoned myself 3 times during that clip

[@ravenuk2880]

Pushing his eyeballs out of his skull. LMAO!

[@yazhvendan666]

PARD-ON!!!

[@jahfaricoumarbatch3947]

Feel like we are no longer discussing "pardons" :)

[@currentresident3775]

I want to read those stacks on Klepper's desk.

[@mikebal6787]

That was a fuckin masterpiece

[@drewlovelyhell4892]

That's the most subtle innuendo I've ever seen...

[@sfcajh777]

Werk it Jordan! I think I love you!

[@Bazzingafy]

EPIC!!!

[@LagrimaArdiente]

Kobi's my favorite!

[@guygay7486]

I pardon myself everytime I sneeze.
