‘S.N.L.’: Trump Celebrates 100 Years (Oops! Days) in Office
The Sharpie that never runs dry takes aim at interracial couples in commercials and a declaration normalizing May-December romances.In the first 100 days of his second term, President Trump has already signed more executive orders than any other modern president, and this weekend, “Saturday Night Live” offered its suggestions for even more.This broadcast, hosted by Quinta Brunson and featuring the musical guest Benson Boone, started with a rousing voice-over proclaiming that Trump’s first 100 days “have been the most dynamic since F.D.R.”During that same interval in the 1930s, the voice-over said, President Franklin D. Roosevelt “created vital government departments, forged new alliances and established our nation’s social safety net.”President Trump, the voice-over added, “did the same thing, only in reverse.”Enter James Austin Johnson, in his recurring role as Trump, congratulating himself for these accomplishments.“It’s me, your favorite president and perhaps your next pope,” he said. “Conclave! Well, it’s been 100 years since I became president. Excuse me, days. Wow, feels longer.”We are having trouble retrieving the article content.Please enable JavaScript in your browser settings.Thank you for your patience while we verify access.
