SNL Recycles Fallon’s Trump in the Mirror Skit for Kamala Harris


NEW YORK, N.Y. — It seems that Saturday Night Live couldn’t think of a skit for Kamala Harris last night, so the once-popular show’s writers recycled a skit used several; years ago to mock Donald Trump on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

Vice President Kamala Harris made an unexpected cameo on “Saturday Night Live” this weekend, joining comedian Maya Rudolph in a sketch that poked fun at Harris’s own career and background. Rudolph, who has famously portrayed Harris on the show in the past, was in character when Harris appeared on stage, sparking cheers from the audience.

The sketch began with Rudolph’s character expressing a wish to connect with someone who understood her unique experience. “I wish I could talk to someone who’s been in my shoes,” Rudolph said, “You know, a Black South Asian woman running for president, preferably from the Bay Area.” The line was a nod to Harris’s history as a former senator from California and her groundbreaking role as the first Black and South Asian woman to serve as vice president.


Harris entered the scene, responding, “You and me, both, sista,” in a humorous tone, drawing laughs from the audience. The moment played off Harris’s background and personality, as well as her use of various speaking styles in different settings, which has occasionally drawn public commentary.

The cameo marked a rare television appearance for Harris outside of political interviews, highlighting her willingness to engage with popular culture and connect with younger audiences. It was also a notable moment for “SNL,” where Rudolph’s portrayal of Harris had become a fan favorite during the 2020 presidential campaign.

Her opponent, President Trump responded, “Kamala Harris has nothing substantive to offer the American people, so that’s why she’s living out her warped fantasy cosplaying with her elitist friends on Saturday Night Leftists as her campaign spirals down the drain into obscurity.”

Harris’s appearance drew mixed reactions on social media, with some praising her sense of humor and others debating the portrayal. Regardless, the moment underscored the unique role of comedy in American politics and the growing trend of politicians participating in late-night television to reach broader audiences.
