The Daily Show's Jordan Klepper Unveils Trump's Comically Desperate 'Freudian Slip'

Jordan Klepper's Analysis of Donald Trump's Freudian Slip

Jordan Klepper, from "The Daily Show," recently dissected a striking "Freudian slip" made by Donald Trump in a social media post. The former president took to social media to criticize Mazi Melesa Pilip as a "very foolish woman" following her loss to Democrat Tom Suozzi in a special election in New York for the House seat previously held by George Santos.

Suozzi had distanced himself from President Joe Biden during the campaign, and Pilip did the same with Trump. After the election results, Trump lashed out at her, stating, "I STAYED OUT OF THE RACE, ‘I WANT TO BE LOVED.’" Klepper highlighted CNN's Kristen Holmes' confusion over the comment, to which he jokingly responded, "Haven’t you seen a person make a Freudian slip with his thumbs before?"
