Saturday night live it took a bit of heat to give a pass to Joe Biden in his first new episode of 2021, and cast member Alex Moffat missed action again as the 46th president of this week’s show. And when “Weekend Update,” was released, it became clear how much Donald Trump was missing from the show.
“Former social media influencer Donald Trump,” Colin Jost began, receiving applause for his launch, “will not testify at next week’s dismissal trial and I think I speak for all of us when I mean, come on, please? ”
“Give us one last show, man,” he continued. “Stop pitying yourself, put the extensions and break into this trial as if you were Maury Povich and you were not the father. Come on, think about it, you can call all the tweets that haven’t allowed you to post in the last month. “
For example, Jost speculated that Trump wanted to post “The Worst Inauguration Ever #PoemBarelyRhymed” or “No Names for Tim Allen? #GoalsTooBlack.”
“Unfortunately, Trump doesn’t,” he added, “but he will be defended on the court by attorneys who refused to prosecute Bill Cosby and agreed to represent Jeffrey Epstein before his death, which raises the question, what does he do? Do you think Trump is being charged? ”
To be fair, “Weekend Update” kicked off with a relatively sharp joke from Biden. “President Biden said Friday that he would go ahead with his $ 1.9 trillion stimulus plan with or without Republican support,” Jost began. “Because this economy needs a massage and Joe Biden isn’t waiting for permission.”
