Chris Pratt offered his services to take Comey’s position as he posted a GIF from Parks & Recreation, on which he plays FBI Agent Burt Macklin.

Comedian George Lopez joked, “Well @realDonaldTrump said he was gonna create new jobs!” But fellow comedian Jim Carrey didn’t have time for humor — he was outraged.
