How SNL Reacted to Donald Trump’s Win Over Kamala Harris
No one sang “Hallelujah” on Saturday Night Live after the 2024 election.
On the Nov. 9 episode’s cold open sketch, the cast members paid satirical tribute to the winner, Republican leader Donald Trump, who beat the Democratic candidate, Vice President Kamala Harris, to secure a second term as President.
“To many people, including many people watching this show right now,” Ego Nwodim began, “the results were shocking and even horrifying.”
She noted that Trump was “returned to office by an overwhelming majority,” adding, “This is the same Donald Trump who openly called for vengeance against his political enemies.”
In the final weeks of the election campaign, Trump had repeatedly spoken at rallies and interviews about settling grievances against opponents or others he perceives to have wronged him, should he win a second term.
“The enemy from within, the crazy lunatics that we have, the fascists, the Marxists, the communists, the people that we have that are actually the country,” he said at a rally in Wisconsin Oct. 6. “If you have a smart president, you’ll be able to handle them very well.”
