Nathan Wade asked ‘how can you not hit that?’ in awkward Daily Show interview about Fani Willis

Wade sat down on Tuesday with parody interviewer Quon, played by comedian Marlon Wayans, and was quizzed about his relationship with Willis, who he described as “a respectable mother [and] a brilliant legal mind.”

Later, after the prosecutor denied that Willis had ever been his boss, but was “more analogous to a client,” Quon asked: “So you served her well?”

“I did. I did my job,” Wade responded, as the audience laughed.
