Laughs and Politics Mix on SNL

This weekend's "Saturday Night Live" cold open was all about politics. Dana Carvey played Joe Biden and James Austin Johnson played Donald Trump in a sketch inspired by their recent meeting at the White House. The two sat by a cozy fireplace, discussing Trump's surprising cabinet picks. Biden was serious but respectful, while Trump was unusually quiet and calm. Biden joked about the press leaving so they could talk about important stuff, like nukes. Trump complained about the White House carpets and didn't want to move back in. He also mentioned Elon Musk was at his Mar-a-Lago resort, showing him videos about space and monkeys with computers in their heads.Trump's cabinet picks were a hot topic. He mentioned nominating Matt Gaetz and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for key roles. Sarah Sherman played Gaetz, and Alec Baldwin played RFK Jr. , who joked about his health advice and a dead dolphin in his car. The sketch was a funny take on recent political events, making light of serious situations. It's a reminder that even in tough times, laughter can be found.
