American TV Show Mocks Trump and Vance After Meeting with Zelensky (video).


The Saturday Night Live show on NBC used the meeting of the American and Ukrainian presidents to mock the events in the Oval Office. The show featured actors playing real politicians, including Donald Trump, Volodymyr Zelensky, and Marco Rubio. The performance also included an appearance by an actor imitating Elon Musk who waved a chainsaw.
Here are some quotes from the show:
«Donald, what are you doing in my office? You do know I am the president now, right?» – asked Musk (Meyers), – Just kidding, just kidding. Or maybe not? Maybe not, haha».
«President Zelensky, would you like to say a few words? Maybe tell Mr. Putin how much you love him, and that you regret invading Russia. Maybe offer him one night with your wife», – said James Austin Johnson (Trump) in the show.
«Mr. President, with all due respect», – said the actor who played the Ukrainian president, before being interrupted by the actor who played Vance. And who jumped in at his opponent: «Sorry. Sorry. I'm trying to interrupt because we didn't plan it this way. What happened to 'thank you'? Do you remember what 'thank you' is? For the last 15 seconds that I've been yelling at you, you haven't thanked us once!»
In the show, the actor playing Trump mocked Zelensky for not wearing a suit, calling it disrespectful. Thus, the show's creators emphasized that critics of Zelensky ignored the fact that Elon Musk in the Oval Office was also in a T-shirt and jeans. It is worth noting that during the meeting among Trump, Zelensky, and Vance, an argument occurred due to disagreements regarding Putin. After the meeting, Trump stated that Zelensky was «not ready for peace if America is involved».
