Comedian David Cross says there's nothing more American than standing firm and resolute in the face of rational thought. 

Cross may be best known for playing Tobias Funke on Arrested Development, and for his sketch work with Bob Odenkirk — but the entertainer's roots are firmly planted in stand-up comedy, and his latest show doesn't shy away from the political. 

On the heels of the Republican National Convention, guest host Stephen Quinn dials up Cross to discuss his new tour, Making America Great Again. In it, he takes aim at Donald Trump, religion, gun control and other difficult dinner table topics.
