Comedy Central roasts Matt Bevin over criticism of KY teachers. And his hairline. [View all]

On "The Opposition with Jordan Klepper," the host — who plays a self-described "somewhat unhinged conservative talk show host" — pretended he was blasting the teachers who have been protesting in several different states for more school funding, better pay and pension protection.

"Bottom line: We value teachers exactly the right amount, which is to say, not at all," Klepper said in a segment called "Teachers Suck." "And you know who else knows that? Kentucky Gov.

"Bevin saw this teachers' strike and said what we were all thinking," Klepper continued.
