Director and co-creator Jeff Schaffer recalled that when Obama attempted to offer feedback during an early script meeting, David cut him off with, “Yeah, yeah, yeah, we got it.”
To cover up the accident, David points Obama toward a tan suit, pitching it as an option for “casual Friday.”
“People always ask me where the tan suit came from.”
Lewis told Variety that the goal from the beginning was to “close the book on the tan suit once and for all.”
