A man in his underwear crashed a live TV interview Monday between political pundit Dick Morris and Newsmax host Rob Schmitt.
As the former adviser to Bill Clinton discussed the Iowa caucuses from an apparently residential location, a man wearing a white sleeveless T-shirt and a pair of dark boxer shorts casually entered the room Morris was speaking in.
It is not clear who the man was, how he knew Morris, or if the commentator was at his own home or someone else’s.
At exactly 6:47 p.m. ET, the man strolled by and appeared to side-eye Morris as he spoke.
Morris had just correctly predicted a “huge victory” by former President Donald Trump.
The man appeared to be carrying a mobile phone in his left hand.
Morris did not react but instead kept discussing the stakes for the candidates in Iowa and beyond.
Schmitt’s producers quickly cut to footage of Trump speaking on a stage.
While Morris might not have outwardly reacted to the bizarre situation, Newsmax viewers and those who came across the clip on social media had plenty to say about it:

Neither Norris, Newsmax or Shmitt have addressed the incident.
