Turns out, Sean Spicer would fit right in as a character on 'Veep'
Watch Next

HBO's comedy Veep is about the historic journey of a female vice president as she becomes president and then attempts to stay president. But at its core, VEEP is also about politicians royally screwing up, usually in the form of publicly saying things that they should not be saying.

Cut to our reality today, and it seems kind of like Sean Spicer is doing exactly that with his comments comparing Hitler with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. In fact, Spicer fumbled through his Tuesday press conference so much, it felt like he was living out a pre-written, cringe-worthy scene from Veep.

This didn't escape the internet's notice, so here is Sean Spicer seamlessly intercut with Veep's closing credits. The show usually rewards viewers with a couple extra scenes while the credits role and in this particular episode, it features the one and only Spicer.
