For the first time since Donald Trump won the election, “Saturday Night Live” makes a necessary admission that Vice President Kamala Harris is no match for the man now seeking a return to the White House. It has begun.
The episode, hosted by stand-up comedian and actor Bill Burr, marks the first full season without former cast member Maya Rudolph, who played Harris for five straight weeks, culminating with an appearance by Harris herself last week. , and the program started. 50th season, Associated Press report.
After fellow comedian Dave Chappelle hosted the past two post-election shows, Barr feinted his own monologue, saying, “I don't watch politics,” and then saying, “I don't watch politics.” , the studio's elephant in the room, the Democratic Party, acknowledged its defeat in the general election. .
“Okay, let's talk about what you guys want to talk about. Now, guys, you're 0-2 against this guy,” he said. “But you learn more from losses than from wins. So let's get into the game tape. Women are fine with pantsuits. It doesn't work. Stop trying to respect yourself. ”
“I know a lot of ugly women, feminists, don't want to hear this message,” she said, urging candidates to wear clothes that are a little more revealing.
Bill Barr confessed, “I'm so excited this stupid election is finally over.” Four years ago everyone knew who they were voting for. Then they dragged us into this kind of work for a year and a half,” he said.
Weekend Update similarly denied Kamala Harris' efforts and took aim at SNL hosts Colin Jost and Michael Che.
“Tuesday showed us that Democrats don't actually know how to rig an election,” Jost said, referring to Trump's previous challenge to the 2020 election results.
“It's like we're living in a computer simulation, and whoever is controlling Trump has a cheat code. He's invincible. He threw prostitutes out of cars and got the White House.” It's like a character from Grand Theft Auto that goes straight to “Grand Theft Auto.''
“But don't worry if I know Democrats, they'll take a long hard look in the mirror, learn from their mistakes, and run.” [Joe] In 2028, it will be Biden again. ”
Jost went on to joke about Biden's advanced age, in his 80s, and his widely criticized performance in a debate with Trump in June, after which he effectively called off his re-election bid.
“President Biden and President-elect Trump are scheduled to meet in the Oval Office next week, where Mr. Biden will finally finish what he started in the debate,” Jost said.
