Favreau's words parody those of a pair of CNN commentators, who have drawn scorn for their declarations that Trump "became president" with one action or another.

Van Jones said in February that Trump "became president of the United States in that moment" when he honored a fallen Navy SEAL's widow during his first-ever address to Congress.

Similarly, CNN host Fareed Zakaria said Trump "became president of the United States last night" the day after he ordered an air strike on Syria following its recent chemical weapons attack.
