“Saturday Night Live” continued to satirize the political campaign season with sketches featuring Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Maya Rudolph portrayed Harris, who was seen trying to connect with younger voters on TikTok while facing off with a combative Alec Baldwin as Fox News anchor Bret Baier. Meanwhile, James Austin Johnson played Trump and emphasized conflicting messages about America being both great and terrible. Harris criticized Trump for leaving supporters stranded after a rally in Coachella, while also poking fun at his dancing at a town hall event in Oaks, Pennsylvania. Dana Carvey made an appearance as Joe Biden, with Harris humorously claiming she would be a “jabillion times jabetter” president. The show also featured host Michael Keaton and musical guest Billy Eilish. The satirical portrayal of recent political events on “SNL” reflects ongoing tensions and absurdities in the political landscape leading up to the upcoming election.
