That time President Obama ordered Jon Stewart not to leave 'The Daily Show'




We have so little Jon Stewart left on The Daily Show, and even President Obama is upset about that.

The President made his final appearance on Stewart's Daily Show Tuesday night, and before they got into the real meat of the interview, he had a very important presidential duty to do: He ordered Stewart not to leave the Comedy Central program. "I'm issuing a new executive order, that Jon Stewart cannot leave the show," he said, before quickly adding, "it's being challenged in the courts." Stewart replied, "For me, this is a states' rights issue."

Watch the full excerpt below, where the pair also talks about Obama's Iran deal and the Middle East.
