Kate McKinnons Jeff Sessions said goodbye to the White House in a Saturday Night Live cold open that followed the now-former Attorney Generals resignation from the Trump administration. The sketch also featured Robert De Niro reprising his portrayal of Robert Mueller.
I dont understand how Mr. Trump can replace me with Matt Whitaker, McKinnons defeated Sessions said. Hes just a shady businessman with no experience whos blindly loyal to Donald Trump okay hearing it out loud, it makes sense.
Sessions then packed up his belongings from his office, including his Bible and NAACPs First Ironic Award. Heres my copy of the Bob Woodward book; in Chapter 16, the president calls me mentally retarded, Sessions said as he put Fear in the box.
SNLs Mike Pence, Donald Jr. and Eric Trump each stop by Sessions office to say goodbye, with the Trump boys also blaming the now-former Attorney General for allowing the ongoing Russian investigation to continue. I dont know what I did wrong. I put kids in cages. I said no to gays. What more yall want? the AG asked.
McKinnons Sessions reminisced about all the fun times spent in (SNLs) Trump White House with a montage of clips as the Attorney General sang Adeles Someone Like You to memories with Alec Baldwins Donald Trump.
De Niros Mueller appeared to thank Sessions for aiding in the Russian investigation. Just tell me this: Am I in the report? Sessions asked. A little bit, Mueller responded. Sessions asked What about the president? to which Mueller answered, A lot a bit. The two then briefly duetted on Someone Like You before shouting And live from New York its Saturday Night.
