Fox News almost fooled Jon Stewart on Tuesday. Sean Hannity recently rolled an old clip showing President Obama admitting he can’t take executive action to prevent deportations.
But after seeing the clip, Stewart thought Obama might have more to say. In fact, he did!
“Mother fuckers!” Stewart said. “You just cut Obama off, just before he very clearly says he can do the exact thing he just did, but which you said he said he’s not supposed to.”
“You almost had me, Fox News!” Stewart added.
