Trevor Noah Breaks Down Why Sean Spicer Didn't Land A TV Job

Updated September 22, 2017 at 1:47 AM

On Thursday’s broadcast of “The Daily Show,” Noah explained it was likely “less about” Spicer’s credibility (or lack thereof) and more to do with something else entirely.

Check out Noah’s explanation in the clip above.
