'SNL' targets Donald Trump, Matt Gaetz, RFK Jr.

The “Weekend Update” took quick aim at President-elect Donald Trump and those in his orbit, from RFK Jr. to Elon Musk to Matt Gaetz.

But of course, the fake “Saturday Night Live” newscast opened with the deadly healthcare CEO story that has torn the country apart since United HealthCare CEO Brian Thompson was brazenly gunned down in Midtown Manhattan on December 4. “Weekend Update” anchor Colin Jost noted that the country was engaged “in a delicate and sensitive debate about who will play this guy in the Netflix miniseries.”

Jost also noted that although the accused shooter, Luigi Mangione, is suspected of harboring hostility toward American businesses, the facts of the case do not add up. “Yet he went to Starbucks before the shooting and was arrested at a McDonald's. Perhaps his greatest crime was hypocrisy,” Jost said.

Jost and his co-anchor Michael Che then alternated jokes about Trump and his associates. Noting that Trump was named Time magazine's Man of the Year, Jost observed that the recognition was fitting because “no one has taken up so much of our time.”

Che commented on the news earlier this week that controversial former Republican congressman Matt Gaetz would be moving to One America Network to host a political talk show. Gaetz resigned his seat under pressure from an ongoing ethics investigation. Last month, he was forced to step down as Trump's attorney general after it became clear that Gaetz, accused of sexual misconduct with underage girls, did not have Senate support for his confirmation despite the enthusiastic support from Trump.

Gaetz's new OAN series “will cover everything from quinceañeras to prom jitters,” Che said.

Among other political barbs:

Of RFK Jr.'s push to end polio vaccine mandates, Che joked, “Because it's not Christmas without Tiny Tims.” »

When Elon Musk said Trump and the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg agreed on the issue of abortion, he said, “I never even knew Trump got her pregnant.” »

About Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson fulfilling her dream of appearing on Broadway with her one-night appearance in the musical “& Juliet,” Che said it happened “for that [Supreme Court Justice] Clarence Thomas blew everyone away from the stage in “Kinky Boots.” »

The “Weekend Update” segment also featured extended segments with actors Andrew Dismukes and Jane Wickline. Dismukes criticized the British court ruling which gained attention this week with the ruling that treating a man bald amounted to harassment. Wickline delivered one of his signature songs that riffed on Sabrina Carpenter and Wickline's efforts to spark internet rumors about his sexuality in order to boost his career.

“A lot of people on the Internet like to start juicy rumors about pop stars being gay. When will one person do that about me,” Wickline sang.
