Saturday Night Live had a lot of goofy, apolitical fun Saturday, but took some time to take the occasional dig at the Trump administration.
Anyone who’s seen the movie Independence Day remembers the scene when President Thomas J. Whitmore, played by Bill Pullman, gives the ultimate inspirational speech to rally the troops – that against all odds, they can fight and defeat the evil aliens bent on destroying humanity.
On Saturday, SNL imagined if President Trump were in that same position.
Alec Baldwin returned as Trump, decked out in a flight jacket, as Trump has been seen wearing recently.
Trump tries and fails to give a similar inspirational speech to the soldiers gatd, but largely goes off topic.
In a recorded fake commercial, she played Ivanka Trump.
“She’s a woman who knows what she wants and knows what she’s doing,” the voice-over says.
Ivanka Trump has talked about women in the workforce and portrayed her father as an advocate for working women.
