This Trump press conference parody is hilariously awkward
Watch Next

If there's one thing that seems almost ready-made for parody, it's a Trump press conference. With the rambling sentences, casual misinformation and random attacks on the media, the president's briefings frequently feel more like a farce than real life.

Here to draw attention to the lowlights is British comedian Michael Spicer, returning to The Late Late Show in his role as Trump's behind-the-scenes "advisor."

His parody is just bang-on as it was before, and this time there's even beautifully crafted video presentation interlude. Hopefully there will be more where this came from.
