Samantha Bee and Glenn Beck discover they might have something in common

"My audience wants to kill me for normalizing a lunatic like yourself," Samantha Bee said to Glenn Beck as they sat down for an interview while wearing ugly Christmas sweaters.

"As a guy who's done damage, I don't want to do any more damage," Beck said to a skeptical Bee. Beck acknowledged his role in dividing American voters and urged Bee's audience to not repeat those mistakes. Even with his recourse, though, Beck maintains that he's not a pessimist -- he's a catastrophist.

And that wasn't all.

"I hate to break it to you," Beck said to Bee. "I've been watching you. You've adopted a lot of my catastrophe-kind of traits."

With that revelation, the strange bedfellows of political discourse shared a cake of each other's likenesses.

Stranger things have happened in American politics and it's going to be a bumpy road going forward. 2017!
