This election cycle has made most television news more entertaining than usual.  CNN commentator Angela Rye took that to a whole new level during Tuesday’s CNN Panel on President Obama, Trump, and the 2016 presidential election.

During the show, former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski tried to come for the President by asking, “Did he ever release his transcripts from Harvard?” Rye responded quickly moving the conversation to Trump’s failure to release his tax returns this election cycle.

When Lewandowski evaded her question and again tried to demand an answer from her, she said “Corey? Just a moment, I’m going to Beyoncé you. Boy, bye. You just so out of line right now, tell your candidate to release his tax returns.”

This is hilarious and magical at the same time. I’m sure Beyoncé is somewhere very proud right now.
