Wait, so the senator-elect gets a cold open cameo but nobody asks what he’s actually doing for Texas?
Oh great, another politician wandering onto SNL to be “relatable” for six minutes. Nothing says democracy like a senator-elect doing a bit between the Trump jokes. Hope somebody remembered to vote on the actual bills.
Great, another politician cameo on SNL, so the sketch becomes a campaign ad and the punchline gets buried under the applause. Nothing will change in Washington, but the TV ratings will get their little bump.
