Saturday Night Live opens with former president Donald Trump (James Austin Johnson) addressing the people of East Palestine (“Not a great name”), Ohio following the devastating toxic train derailment that’s thrown the city into turmoil. He’s come bearing McDonald’s and bottled water, but it doesn’t take him long to lose focus, going on a tirade about Rhianna’s Super Bowl performance (“It was all arms”), Pete Buttigieg (“We call him Pete Butt – there’s no way around it”), and popular TV shows Schitt’s Creek and Yellowstone.
