The cast of SNL have returned to mock American politics once again, and this time might be our favourite.
Last night’s episode of Saturday Night Live saw a large portion of the cast appear on stage as different figureheads in American politics to perform Hallelujah in a cold open.
He is quickly joined by Kellyanne Conway, played by Kate McKinnon and Mike Pence, played by Beck Bennett.
Eric Trump (Alex Moffat), Donald Trump Jr. (Mikey Day) and Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders (Aidy Bryant) are next to appear on the stage, alongside a grim reaper (yes, really) in the rendition.
Although it is not the usual biting jokes that the show directs at Trump and his administration, it still makes a few hilarious references to his presidency so far.
The song finishes with Baldwin stating that he “isn’t giving up because he didn’t do anything wrong”, although “he can’t speak for these people” he said while gesturing to the group surrounding him.
The line echoed McKinnon’s Clinton rendition which aired in November when she finished the song seemingly in tears and said: “I’m not giving up, and neither should you.”
