Hot off the heels of [mini Gordon Ramsey's success](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kate-norkeliunas), here comes Lil' O'Reilly, just in time for [the election](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/election-collection). Mini Bill O'Reilly comes complete with his own '[Lil' O'Reilly Factor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brooklyn-ninenine),' designed just to look like the adult Fox News show.

In the clip above, Lil' O'Reilly is letting Barney Frank have it. He lampoons some of Bill O'Reilly's finest lines, like, "Here's the facts! You look like a Muppet and you sound like Barney Rubble!"

Somehow it's way funnier when a little kid parodies the silly ways adults act.
