In the latest feature in the popular series Lie Witness News, Jimmy Kimmel poked fun at Hillary Clinton supporters by fooling them into supporting aspects of Donald Trump’s plan.
“We went out on the street and found people who claimed to support Hillary Clinton for president and asked those people about her tax plan,” Jimmy Kimmel said. “What they didn’t know is that the tax plan we presented them with was not Hillary Clinton’s. It was Donald Trump’s.”
Kimmel sent a reporter to interview Clinton supporters, many of whom cited her being a woman as the reason for their support.
“I’m a Hillary Clinton supporter,” one woman said. “Well, for one, it’s definitely time we get a woman in the White House.”
“I think a female president would be a great idea,” another man said.
One woman expressed her displeasure with Trump by saying “next” when asked her opinion about the bombastic GOP frontrunner. All of those interviewed said they would not be able to support anything Trump suggested.
However, when asked about details in Trump’s tax plan, disguised as Clinton’s tax plan, all of the respondents expressed their approval, sometimes after a pause. The facets supported by the Clinton fans include traditional elements of Republican tax policy, including lowering corporate taxes, eliminate the estate tax, eliminate taxes for those making less than $25,000 a year, and eliminate the alternative minimum tax.
When informed that they were deceived, those interviewed reacted very differently.
“I’d say he’s a pretty smart man,” one man said.
“I feel pretty stupid,” another man responded.
“I would say that that’s shocking, but I’m still not voting for him,” a woman said. “He’s a caricature.”
“Well, I support Donald Trump, then,” a more honest man admitted.
“Oh, God!” a woman said in embarrassed laughter. “I hate him!”
“The conclusion?” Kimmel said. “None of us deserve to vote.”
