AceShowbiz - In a recent episode of "Saturday Night Live" popular "Weekend Update," co-hosts Colin Jost and Michael Che left no stone unturned when it came to poking fun at two of the most controversial figures of our time: Elon Musk and Donald Trump.
The segment began with Jost jokingly describing how President Trump pressured Musk, who Jost nicknamed "White Kanye," into trading his usual hoodie for a suit at a weekly cabinet meeting. "It's a refreshing reminder that bullying still works," the comedian quipped.
Che delivered another punchline with comments about Musk's recent SpaceX Starship explosion on Thursday, "which is how he ended up with all those kids," referencing Musk's growing family - now at 14 children with Shivon Zilis.
Switching gears, Che took aim at Trump's aggressive stance on international relations. He mentioned that "the leaders of Great Britain and France have been coaching Volodymyr Zelensky on how to deal with President Trump," comparing it to "extra training to be a special ed teacher."
As Che reported the news about Trump braggingly saying that no one had "changed the government more in 43 days," the comedian quipped back, "And nobody changed airport security faster than bin Laden."
The "SNL" duo didn't stop there. Jost jokingly agreed with Trump's recent aggression towards Canada, saying, "Those syrup-guzzling, poutine-munching, moose-humping hockey s**** have taken advantage of us far too long."
As a humorous jab at "SNL" own history, Jost pointed out that American sketch comedy jobs were being "stolen by filthy Canadians," highlighting Mike Myers' portrayal of Musk on the show.
As always, SNL's "Weekend Update" delivers a refreshing cocktail of humor and social commentary, proving once again why it remains a staple of late-night television.
