“The Nightly Show” reminded viewers on Wednesday’s episode that the man who cried Washington original waterworks wasn’t President Barack Obama despite Tuesday’s tears.
Washington’s original cryer was former House Speaker John Boehner.
Larry Wilmore obtained a Tuesday statement from the former Speaker.
“The President has never respected that crying is what I do. Nobody in Washington ever cried before John Boehner started crying,” the statement read. “And now he’s Mr. Waterworks on live television? GTFO, Obama.”
“Tears are MY thing, K?” the statement continued.
