President Barack Obama made his final appearance on “The Daily Show” on Tuesday and issued a surprise, executive order, that if it comes to fruition, could send our nation plummeting down a dark and treacherous path.

“I can’t believe you’re leaving before me,” Obama said to host Jon Stewart. “In fact, I’m issuing a new executive order that Jon Stewart cannot leave the show.”

Thankfully, that will never happen, as Stewart will be leaving Comedy Central in August. Obama’s interview spanned the show’s entire 30-minute time slot, and while Stewart did knock the president for “sometimes [having] talking points that sound insincere,” the majority of the conversation focused on “the bunch of other things [the administration] wants to get done.”

OBAMA: I finally know what I’m doing… I do think the work we did early starts bearing fruit later… Government works better now than it probably ever has given what we ask it to do. … We are redesigning from soup to nut.
