Los Angeles, United States - September 25, 2025 09/25/2025 02:00 pm GMT-0700 SANTA CLARITA, Calif. – A Santa Clarita dentist is defending herself after a viral video resurfaced showing her joking that she gives worse care to patients who aren’t Trump supporters. Dr. Harleen Grewal, who has built her practice around her open support for former President Donald Trump, is seen in the clip laughing as she describes how some patients react to a “Wall of Fame” in her office featuring Republican leaders and Trump allies. The video, which was first posted on TikTok two years ago, was later deleted, but has recently begun circulating again across social media. On camera, Grewal told Key News Network she believes the controversy is being driven by a single individual who first targeted her years ago. “Just like the Democrats, they make jokes too. We make jokes as well. Like, why can’t we just take a joke lightheartedly? But that was taken to cancel me,” Grewal said. “And the Dental Board did an investigation. They cleared it out and said there was nothing they could find that proved any of that. And now, after a few months again, this has erupted. So I’m obviously linking it back to the same person that started it to begin with.” She added that the video was originally posted by her own office as part of a series of short clips meant to show her personality. “I’m a stand-up comedian for pretty much most of my patients, too. We joke around. You’ve got to live life. And you’ve got to laugh. Life is too short. So enjoy it as well as you can, too. So I don’t think I did anything wrong by making a joke,” she said. “Jimmy Kimmel can joke, but I can’t joke. That’s not fair.” The video has fueled a heated online debate, with critics calling her remarks inappropriate and unethical, while supporters insist she is being unfairly targeted for her politics.
