“Daily Show” correspondent Jordan Klepper on Monday mocked President Donald Trump for the assortment of oddball awards and trophies he’s been collecting since returning to the White House.

This week, he was given the inaugural “Undisputed Champion of Beautiful Clean Coal” trophy ― an award seemingly created just for him. And last year, FIFA ― soccer’s governing body ― granted him the FIFA Peace Prize, another honor that seemed to have been created just for the president.

“And if you’re thinking, this guy sure wins a lot of awards that were created just this year for him in particular, you’re right,” Klepper said, then pulled out a trophy of his own for the president. “That’s why tonight, we’re proud to present President Trump with the inaugural award for winning the most inaugural awards. Congratulations to our one and only nominee!”

But as Klepper pointed out, the real problem with Trump’s latest honor for “beautiful clean coal” isn’t the absurd trophy.

“If this were just a silly little award to make the president feel like a special boy, no one would give a shit,” he said. “But unfortunately, unlike the FIFA Peace Prize, the president seems intent on actually earning this award.”

Trump has been rolling back environmental regulations, and this week ordered the Pentagon to purchase power from coal plants. In addition, he’s essentially stripped the Environmental Protection Agency of its ability to regulate emissions.

It’s not just Trump, either.

Klepper rolled footage of Interior Secretary Doug Burgum making a wild claim about carbon dioxide.

“But CO2 was never a pollutant,” Burgum insisted in a Fox Business interview. “When we breathe, we emit CO2. Plants need CO2 to survive and grow. They thrive with more CO2.”

“Oh, now I understand,” Klepper shot back. “You’re a fucking idiot!”

Then he offered a simple fact check.

“Look, nobody is saying CO2 shouldn’t exist. The amount is the issue,” he said. “We need water to live, too. But the crew of the Titan submersible is not living extra hard right now.”

The reference to the submersible, which imploded on a trip to the Titanic with tourists inside, elicited a groan from the audience.

“I know,” Klepper replied. “Facts hurt.”
