'Daily Show' Adds Actual Kids Into Sean Spicer's Press Briefing And It's Too Real
By Mark PygasUpdated Nov. 18 2019, 2:12 p.m. ET
Sean Spicer has earned a fair bit of criticism over his daily White House press briefings, which usually devolve into a shouting match. But one of the most common criticisms he faces is that he treats the White House press corps like a bunch of children, telling them to stop shaking their heads, and interrupting their questions.
So The Daily Show decided to replace the press with a bunch of actual children, and it plays out weirdly similarly...

During White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer's six-month tenure, he provided us with some entertainment when we needed it most. He started this term by defending the size of crowds attending President Donald Trump's inauguration crowds. He became arguably the best character on Saturday Night Live, played by Melissa McCarthy. And of course, he infamously led a campaign against Dippin' Dots.
Sean Spicer now works with the Worldwide Speakers Group, turning down an invitation to appear on Dancing With The Stars. "Few in Washington are as well-equipped as Sean to pull back the curtain and dissect what’s really happening in the nation’s capital," his biography on the company's website reads.
And recently, Spicer returned to the White House in a trip that he documented on his Instagram account. But one post has people talking more than ever. Why? Because he refers to a copy of Charles Dickens' Christmas Carol.
