WATCH: Obama Steals The Host Chair From Stephen Colbert

President Barack Obama did his best Stephen Colbert impression Monday night when he crashed “The Colbert Report” set early and kicked the host out of his chair.

Obama came out just in time for a segment called “The Word,” which he renamed as the more presidential “The Decree.”

“Nation, as you know, I, Stephen Colbert, have never cared for our President,” Obama began. “The guy is so arrogant, I bet he talks about himself in the third person.”

The segment was ostensibly about healthcare, but the Colbert writers poked fun at Obama throughout. As Obama touted HealthCare.gov’s nearly one million new sign ups, the text to the right of the screen read “so, half as popular as a Grumpy Cat video.”

The President also quipped that Disney got the idea for the movie “Frozen” from HealthCare.gov’s bumpy rollout.

  4. Wow. That was fantastic. It’s amazing how likeable he is when he wants to be.

    Now if only there was more of this back in 20010 and 11.
