"Lower than, frankly, milk." killed me.
With the calling him "skim Tim" ...lol
Skim Scott was great!
Milk scores higher than Tim Scott because it's... white... ;-P
@@igorschmidlapp6987 Which only adds to the hilarity! Great joke...Skim Scott he shall be 😂😂😂
Skim Scott is gonna stick 😅
Props to Heidi for holding her arm in the air for 5 minutes.
Yes it's Heidi. The description listed Chloe but doesn't appear in this sketch.
@@melreslor2114 Chloe is so good at impressions she can impersonate Heidi impersonating Nikki Haley.
@@pop5678eyeGreat comment! 😂
She's so gorgeous 😊
Light work for a med student on a surgery rotation
“I call her bird brain but only in public.” 😂
“My sweet little, middle aged criminal children” that line got me 🤣🤣
“I have a girlfriend…for her I feel a sense of human love” Tim Scott impression was second best.
He should have tucked in his upper lip to expose his gums like Colbert does for Eric.
That was 💯 percent golden
He nailed Tim Scott
Tim Scott ended his campaign this morning lol, I wonder if it’s related to this.
He gave a synopsis of _Heartbeeps_
"She used to be Lisa from Temecula now she's Vivek from Ramaswamy"
I AM SCREAMINGGGGGGGG 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah, I got that reference too and it's friking hilarious.
I respect them 4 acknowledging that she is a similar skintone 2 him. But they still messed up with a dsbm playing Lester Holt. They need 2 get Black ppl of different colors or acknowledge that some Black ppl are beige, tan, ivory.
😂😂😂😂😂
@@luthorforpresident9353 I'm with you, representation is awesome. Wanna see a cast full of all types of people just roasting trump for hours and hours. Call it Saturday Night Trump Jokes and just fly in comedians from Suriname, Korea, Morocco and Brunei (and etc) to tell their best Trump jokes/roasts to James, who has to take it.
@@sagebrushrepairI want tickets 🤭🤭
'Poor EgoShe used to be Lisa from Temecula from now she's Vivek from Ramaswamy.' I almost spit out my food I laughed so hard!
"how can you forget Chris Christie... it's easy you just walk away".😂
Trump was trying so hard to get ego to break! Kudos to her for staying in place!
fi
Careful of the fake SNL comment with its scammy post.
@SaturdayNightLiveLive 😎
Honestly I was thinking that it's kind of weak. I've heard dozens of better trump impressions.
She almost lost it with "Lisa from Temecula"
The girl who played Nikki Haley held her arm and body and head for that long she deserved some freaking props mad respect
Heidi Gardner
really, a white woman playing a brown woman, SNL couldn't find a couple of brown actors to play brown politicians?
It’s not that difficult, especially if you keep your elbow close to your body. Actors with theater experience usually have to do this.
If conservatives did a skit where a white woman portrayed Pramila Jayapal-Democrat Indian-American Representative-Leftists would be screaming “cultural appropriation.”
@@jonathanmoore7079 that statement assumes conservatives have a sense of humor. They do not. Conservatives aren't funny or creative enough to come up with an idea for a sketch, hell they're not even creative enough to think of a better candidate than a literal rapist
😂😂 who ever wrote this sketch deserves a big raise.. this was one of the funniest sketches in a long while.. 👏 to the actors.. just walk away killed it 😂😂😂
I would laugh, except it's really just accurate, and that scares me. When the satire is just the real thing.
You’re sarcasm is not bad
"Stuck on stage while I cook." Very underrated line.
Seriously, how has Trump never thought of the nickname "Ron DeSastrous" to attack DeSantis?
Who? Ya mean Meatball?
As much as I can't stand the man... "DeSanctimonious" was pretty funny.
Trump isn't that clever
Why should he? Meatball Ron hits the spot.
DON'T. GIVE. THEM. IDEAS.
"look who they got playing Meatball Ron, one of the destroy boys. Ron's watching at home like, who the hell is that"
lmao
One of the best debate skits in a while. The final jab at Christie had me dying
just wish baldwin was playing
@@PinnacleApexSame here. Alec Baldwin was hilarious as Trump..his facial expressions, mannerisms. This guy (James Austin?) Only sounds like Trump but he is not nearly as funny as Alec Baldwin..
it was hardly a debate skit it was just a trump skit
"Keep my daughter's name out of your voice"! 😂😂😂 So funny. She acted exactly hw Nicky Hailey did it😂😂😂
"Skim Scott"😂💀
That was a great line.
😂😂
It fits. He IS just kind of skimming the surface.
Trump should steal that one 😂
It is a good line. If it wasn't a liberal show writing it they'd probably call it racist, because milk is racist apparently.
Respect to the 'debaters' for staying still so long
no kidding, right? if they had broken, the skit would have been different and focused on them.
They did a similar skit on the last supper not too long ago. Also hilarious.
@@albertgaspar627 I thought that it was focused on them. Really, who gives a damn about the GOP any more. The party will be dead once they let the government shut down in a week...
They've mastered the art. They're masterdebaters aka masterbaters
I don't know how they even did that lol
"I have trouble hearing women over 25" 😂😂😂😂ohhhh my god that's funny
Why Trump always gets the best lines? "I have trouble hearing women over 25". That floored me 🤣🤣🤣🤣
How can we forget Chris Christie. It's pretty easy, just walk away😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He is like the Captain on the Axiom in the Wall-E movie 🤖
Hilarious 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
And it was just how smooth he began walking away perfectly in time with the statement 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Dude that impression is 100% Felt weird laughing along with it as it was so close to the real thing... which is the most terrifying thing on the planet.
Damn. My thoughts exactly! lol
yes! and the audience was so quiet - listening hard, while being creeped out.
Hard agree. Can we just keep this one and forget the real one?
Same!
Trump 2024!!!!!! Y’all better be ready!!!!
Best trump impersonation ever. Amazing talent.
Try Shane gillis
Wasn’t that good
Baldwin was better..
@@benjudd3584 Gillis has great voice impersonation only though. The guy in this sketch pulls off the whole act.
Shane Gillis is better
At the start of this I said “oh god Ego is Rameeswamy. No. Looks like she hates it too” I can’t stop laughing at the high level of Meta used here. It’s just like Trump to sit home, watch SNL knowing he’s gonna be on it, and tear the whole sketch apart. It’s like an extra layer for those who understand sketch and improv. Thanks for that SNL
Trump roasting the candidates was hilarious. Best trump impression. The voice when says Why aren't you at the debate, where's Trump is so accurate.
For real that part was so accurate
Awful
He was way too logical and articulate to be a believable trump.
Eh. The Trump impressions are getting old. He's rapist, a fraud, and a racist, but 7 years of skits about him are getting old. A chunk of our country is cultishly obsessed with him, but I think the rest of us are sick of hearing about him. If he does something newsworthy it'd be one thing, but there really isn't any new content here.
Seeing the Please Don't Destroy guy as Ron Desantis made no sense until Trump came out
I thought they could have had michael longfellow to do desantis so I was confused
Please Don't Destroy now has a movie to plug... ;-P
I honestly thought it was Micheal Longfellow under a ton of makeup until he said who it was
He’d make a killer Ted Cruz if needed tho he looks like him here
@@ellabiddy4741why insult the man like that 😮
I actually forgot Chris Christie within 30 seconds of the camera panning.
I haven't watched SNL since the 90s. This sketch is done so well the talent is high calibre it was a joy to watch😁
That Tim Scott was flawless lol
Yeah, he was on point.
But he didn't talk about religion!
Nobody knows if it’s true or not because nobody knows who Tim Scott is
@@TubbyLumpedKins There's a lot of that going around. Nobody knew who Mike Johnson was either. I read when he was elected speaker some senators actually had to Google him because they never heard of him!
Indeed. I'm still chuckling as I post this.
Guy that plays trump killed it. The best trump impersonator i've seen on the show
What happened to Alec Baldwin? He was so funny. Also really loved his tough stance on gun control. A real shining example of a modern day "liberal".
@@christiankrueger221Alec Baldwin was terrible. This new guy is way better.
This new one is so much better than Alec
Was kinda hoping he'd joke about Mikey Day when he started commenting on the other cast members portrayals. Like how he was off his game last week or something.
@@rike94 Yeah, I enjoyed Baldwin's but this guy really nailed it.
Donald Trump has a hard time hearing any woman over 25 years old. That was perfect.😂
The fact that James managed to break the fourth wall and make meta-references while staying in character and maintaining the plot is a testament to just how entertaining these segments are. I await an SNL segment of Trump's conviction.
I could not stop watching Heidi keeping her arm up the whole time. She is great. 😂
That is quite the talent and/or accomplishment.
If they can't get Alex Moffet and Mikey Day back together at some point during these trials to do the trump bros again, it will be a huge missed opportunity.
Eric... the "Fredo" of the Trump family...
You read my mind, asphaltrivers!
I love it!
The Trump bros? Like the Mario bros but Don Jr and Eric 😂😂😂😂😂
Naming the cast members playing the parts was an exceptional idea by the writers.
The Ego lines had my leg shaking 😂😂😂😂
“I have trouble hearing women older than 25.” Is crazy 😂
And probably true.
Just James on stage roasting people as trump is a brilliant idea, he's so convincing when he belittles his fellow players. James is approaching tina fey's palin level of impression perfection, and just getting better
The writers on this one nailed every joke: destroy boy, just walk away, a woman's name, just hit after hit. Keenan put a bit of mustard on lester HOLT and it delights me.
Shane Gillis' Trump is 1,000 times better than what's his face you mentioned. SNL blows.
James catches Trump just right...eccentric but not hysterical. In impressionist must respect the full range of the person, and Alec Baldwin was 0% respect and 100% PROJECTION (a rage-filled fanatic). I never thought Kate McKinnon's appearance or mannerisms echoed Hillary, but she captured her PERSONALITY and essence more on-target than a Target Checkout Lady, so she nailed it. PS I'm very conservative and if the actors demonize Hillary or Trump, it's just not funny.
Agreed@@jimcarey7150
Or Larry as Bernie
They probably did that because they noticed the entire cast was doing a horrible impression of all the politicians.
Don't blink. You might actually think you're watching Trump! Best Trump impersonation I've seen!
OMG THE MILK - i almost spit out my drink laughing as that started up
Kudos to Devon Walker for absolutely nailing that Tim Scott impression! I've never heard anyone do one, and his was perfect.
I have a girlfriend, and she's real. 😂😂😂
f@@LastBruhStanding And possibly from Canada. :-)
The impression of Tim Scott just NAILS it. The constant uptalking with the fry in the background, at the weird volume -- I am so thankful that someone felt the same amount of agony while listening to his delivery and channeled it into this perfect impression.
Having never heard him talk, it's honestly disturbing how complimentary people are of that impression
It's worse when he talks for long periods of times- he thinks he's a preacher lol
"Oh hey that's me." 😅😅😅
The Tim Scott impersonation is great
That Trump impersonation is so good. And props to the rest of them for holding still that long.
This had about 500% more maturity than the actual debate.
What
You definitely didn’t watch the debate but sure.
@@elijahpierre1696 yeah, plenty of pandering but way better than the first two and generally more substantive than most presidential debates from either party. It’s a very weird comment especially because SNL is (rightly) going for exaggerated satire, so not only is it by design not more mature but 500% more is insane. That would be them seriously debating founders’ constitutionalism and would not make for a good SNL episode.
@@carsondenny1986 It's almost like the two of you didn't realize it was a joke, and went right past the humor to feeling offended.
The Republican presidential debates are just the candidates lying to try to get the most voters. The SNL skit was far more mature and honest than the real debates.
Respect to Ego and Heidi for holding those poses all the way through.
That milk joke is one of the funniest jokes I’ve ever heard
"We like Skim Scott" 😅😅
*"Why aren't you at the debate Mr Trump? Where is Trump"*
That little sarcastic voice is so on point 😂😂😂
‘How can you forget Chris Christie, its easy, you just …walk away…’
James Austin Johnson had so many good one liners here
His mentals are clearly in decline!
Awful
This is pure comedy..😂 Thank you SNL.
Meh
Pure shit is more like it
All it needed it was more Biden and pelosi and Jan 6 criminalities the dems have done 😂 they do it the. Say trump did it 😂😂😂.
They managed to go after the candidates and themselves at the same time. That’s impressive!
Oh man, poor Ego. I don't know how she didn't break with JAJ going right for her like that.
There must have been a money bet involved!
$50 and a plate of Ego waffles
I was very impressed
@@Omni0404Leggo 😂
Lol, I literally just said that about the bets. 😂😂😂
The Trump impersonator is hilarious and so on point. I love how he trails off in random thoughts that don't make sense and contradicting himself in a single sentence 😂😂😂
Biden wasn't in this skit honey
@@knightoftheprincess3904no...he wasn't. I too watched the skit.
And speaks at the level of a second grader for his base.
@@knightoftheprincess3904What a delusional comment !
Exactly. It’s like actually listening to Trump talk. 😂
The guy that imitated Trump nailed it haha
Been watching SNL for 30ish years, and this is one of the best cold openings that I’ve seen.
That was gold. And thank you to “Lester Holt” for pointing out that Haley got messed up “keep my daughter’s name out of your mouth.”
Haley did it right though. Ramaswamy didn't use the name, and "keep my daughter out of your mouth" just doesn't come off right.
Nikki Haley actually said “keep my daughter out of your VOICE” rather than “…out of your MOUTH.” 🤣🤣🤣 Nikki Haley still got it wrong.
Kenan sounded like he was about to say Lester Oaks, Construction Worker.
Awful
@@fabnchiclily”leave”, she said “leave my daughters name out of your voice”.
Just give him the Emmy now.
💯
An Emmy for unfunny?
Shit how come yall don't do biden falling everywhere in the world, yet yall making fun of the Republicans danm shame snl
That Tim Scott impression was bizarrely perfect lol
“ I have a gf” my gay ass at every holiday function 😂😂😂
This Trump impersonation is one of the best ever.
Maybe Alec Baldwin can play Trump from behind bars, fulfilling every "liberals" fantasy about locking up their political opposition.
He was too sharp for trump.
James Austin Johnson is the only reason I watch SNL now. The rest of the show I usually fast forward through.
4:45 his impression of Trump doing the questioning voice was so on-point i had to do a double-take
I was glad they winked at the Nikki Haley comment "keep my daughters name out of your voice" being close to will smiths comment to Chris Rock lmao. I about died laughing during the actual debate when she said that haha
She said that IRL 😳🤣
@@lizbooker2835 yes lmao either first or 3rd debate. Pretty sure the 3rd
The fourth wall break was phenomenal that was so great
that guy’s trump impression is so good 😂
Props to them for not cracking a smile. That was a great impression. Too funny!
The Trump impression is masterly. 😂😂🙌🙌 James Austin Johnson is a phenomenal actor.🙌
He just needs to be more orange, have a better combover, and be pudgier.
It was so smart to just bring in Austin Johnson to take over the debate. It's what we really wanted
This would be hilarious if we weren’t watching it play out in real time. Also Eric is 100% gonna be the fall guy lmao
I just kept laughing. The Trump guy was so funny! 🤣🤣😃😊👍
I don't recall SNL going so meta in a sketch before with self acknowledgement.
That's what made it so hilarious. Partly because this is exactly what Trump would say about them if given the chance.
It happens a lot.
There was a Last Supper sketch where he did the same thing. The man is a master.
@andrewowens4421 Chump chose to forego those chances cuz he knew they don’t matter. This was the fantasy scenario about why he never bothered.
The show ended a season by killing off the cast in like 1988
"My sweet little middle-aged criminal children." 🤣🤣🤣
If trump was off the ballot, his voters would vote for vivek
I think the trophy goes to the Trump impersonator. He is by far the best Trump impersonator on this show or any other show
It is a great impression but it would be more recognizable if his facial makeup was more orangey 🎃.
Literally spot on
He is perfect.
but you know it's probably killing him inside
Yo close your eyes you might think it’s trump
"I have trouble hearing women over 25."
So accurate.
-said Leo DiCaprio
incel
As opposed to your king Biden who’s clearly a pedo and a racist. I’ll take the guy that can complete a full sentence, walk without falling, keeps our border closed, creates the best economy in history anyday over the buffoon in office now. 🤫 TRUMP 2024 🇺🇸
We’ve seen so many Trump impersonations throughout the years, but this is genuinely the best. In retrospect, Alec Baldwin’s was really not that good. It was funny at the time, but this guy literally sounds like Trump. The intonation, the changes in pitch and rhythm, quite frankly, marvelous.
James Austin only has the voice. Other than that he's boring. Alec Baldwin was the whole package. Mannerisms, facial expressions.. everything..
The Dude Playing Trump nailed it
with the Periodic Sniffing Sounds. 🤣🤣👍
As always James Austin Johnson does the *BEST* Trump impersonation. Hands down.
Alec was far better
Alec was a much better trump, this guy sucks
@xavierjackson6779 yeah, I agree. Alec is better
@@xavierjackson6779 you must be hallucinating, he was the worst, no resemblance to Trump whatsoever, JAJ is a carbon copy of Trump from voice, to mannerisms to dialogue throw
@@kleinsitwala2357I’m so glad Shane didn’t waste his talent on SNL. Bless the Dawgs.
James Austin Johnson is undefeated when it comes to Trump impersonations
Except by Alec Baldwin.
Matt Friend
Jamie Foxx's vocal impersonation is fairly perfect.
@@retroguy9494I think Johnson has taken the crown from Baldwin who stole it from Hammond.
Finally someone said his name
Best trump impression ever!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
• "Keep my daughter's name out of your voice!"
• "Almost said that right" 😂
This would be so much funnier if it weren't so accurate lol
Heidi pulled off a better Haley impression than I would have ever expected. Almost had her voice perfect despite how different Nikki's is from her own.
Not even close
This guy does trump as well as I’ve seen an impressionist do ANYBODY.
Really funny skit, props to the writer. One of the funniest things I’ve seen on SNL in a long while. A self referential skit within a skit that seamlessly transitioned between the two.
This was hilarious. To pick on the candidates and the real SNL actors Great!
That Tim Scott impression is pretty spot on too 😂
Needed more gums
Man I haven’t laughed my ass off so hard in a long time!!!!!!! I knew I had a feeling that Vivek Ramaschmucky would have a slim chance at winning.
“ but we like Skim Scott, we love him” 🤣🤣🤣💯💯
James's impression of Trump is spot on !! Gives me anxiety just watching him. 😂😂😂
TDS?
Nah...Baldwin was substantially better.
his voice is really spot on, but he needs to plat the invisible accordion a lot more. like constantly if he wants to look like trump.
@@retroguy9494 if you appreciate a more cartoonish caricature of Trump than yes. James is way closer to the real thing. He's really studied him
Ikr! I was laughing coz James is hilarious! But at the same time the sh*t that was coming out if his mouth was downright scary! And the worst part is it's stuff that Trump would really say! Damn. Lol
"Now she's Vivek from Ramaswamy!"
Such a solid skit deserved a better response from that live audience. What the heck was the energy in that room?
You’re kidding
It was terrible. Aside from Trump impersonation everything else was horrible
Ego as Ramaswany is hilarious
I regret laughing at "Vivek from Ramaswamy" 🤣🤣🤣
James Austin Johnson is hands down the greatest Trump impersonator ever - This totally inside skit was very well written ...
Check out Matt Friend's impersonation
Both he and the writers deserved a better audience for that one
He needs a fat suit to top it off.
Jimmy Fallon’s is my favorite
Stephen Colbert n Seth 2 of my fav
The fact that Heidi was able to hold her arm like that for about 5 minutes and look as still as a statue is impressive.
Why does Vivek's actor look like Tim Scott more then Tim Scott's actor?!
"Poor Ron DeSantis, even SNL doesn't think he has a chance... if they did it'd be, like, Paul Rudd or something..."
Ego as Vivek Ramaswamy makes me laugh too hard. 😂
yeah, a black woman playing a brown guy, if it would have been reversed, people would lose their mind
@@psycictree27are you a "black woman or brown man"? If not either why do you care about hypothetical situations?
