JD loves couches very strongly, that I can tell you. Big, strong men come up to me with tears in their eyes and say "Sir, nobody's ever seen a man who loves couches as strongly as your running mate". And when I'm president again, I'm going to have all the couches in the White House covered in plastic on my first day in office. It's going to happen very, very quickly.

By far the most hilarious Melania done by Laura Benanti!
Ms. Benanti is deserving of the highest Comedy accolade, if not a trump medal of honor. She is priceless.👏💐👏💐👏💐💙💙💙
And she's not even really a comic. She's a straight-up stage actress, who mostly does musicals on Broadway. But she does have a real gift for comedy.

Can you imagine Trump and Melania sitting together watching this? Ketchup would be flying all over the walls. 😂
Why would they be sitting together? They never do...
Melania laughing while Trump has a temper tantrum.
And normal people would probably slide from the couch laughing....
actually trump would prob start trying to kiss the tv
You could’ve ended that sentence at “sitting together”
I love how Stephen tries to pull himself together not to burst with laughter. This parody is brillant.

Didn't think we'd be seeing Benanti reprising this role. Not only can she still break Stephen, she even broke _herself_ at the end there.
