Gleib has appeared on E!, ABC, NBC, CBS and Fox and is currently hosting the quiz show "Idiotest" on Netflix. But if you think his campaign is a joke, Gleib assured ABC7 News anchors Kristen Sze and Reggie Aqui that it is serious.
Gleib believes a comedian is uniquely qualified to take on hecklers, which he deems a needed skill to challenge President Trump.
