Judge Jeanine Pirro and Donald Trump reprised their lovefest on this weekend’s “Saturday Night Live” as Cecily Strong and James Austin Johnson tackled the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict and word salads.
“That lovable scamp was put through a nightmare of a trial just for doing the bravest thing any American can do: protecting an empty used car lot in someone else’s town,” Strong began, channeling the Fox News host and praising Kyle Rittenhouse, who was found not guilty of intentional homicide and other charges this week.
Sipping from a mug stamped with the words “Liberal Tears,” Strong welcomed two guests to comment on the Rittenhouse verdict, a white legal analyst for “nasty NPR,” played by Chloe Fineman, and a Black professor from Howard University, played by Chris Redd.
“I’ve never seen anything like it before,” Fineman says of the not-guilty verdict given to Rittenhouse.
“I have! Many, many times,” Redd responds with widened eyes.
