Legendary comedian Chris Rock hosted Saturday Night Live last night and unsurprisingly turned in a memorable performance.
This was his first time hosting the show since 2020. He previously served as a cast member between 1990 and 1993.
While, as one would expect, he took some shots at President Trump and other conservatives, his most notable hits came against his fellow liberals—especially Wild Bill Clinton.
Sure enough, Rock opened the partisan part of his monologue by poking fun at himself and Kamala Harris.
“There’s a lot going on in the news, my God, it’s so crazy out there,” Rock stated. “Kamala, Diddy, Jake Paul beating Mike Tyson. What the h*ll?”
Rock then made some astute observations about Trump before taking a sarcastic swipe at him.
“Trump had a good year, man,” Rock said. “Trump survived an assassination attempt. Won the presidency again by winning the popular vote. He was just named ‘Time’ Man of the Year. You know?”
“It could happen to a nicer guy,” he snarked.
But then he turned his fire and hilariously roasted the left for their panic over Trump’s historic victory.
“A lot of people are scared. Like, ‘Oh, my God, he’s going to be so undignified.’ When I say a lot of people, I’m talking about the nine New Yorkers that didn’t vote for him, okay?” Rock said.
The comedian then turned to Clinton, and what he said next completely set the internet ablaze.
“Come on, man, this is not the most dignified job in the world. We’ve had presidents show up to the inauguration with pregnant slaves, okay? And I’m just talking about Bill Clinton,” Rock quipped.
Ouch!
Rock also joked about how the president-elect was going to implement mass deportations of illegal aliens while working with Elon Musk, who he correctly pointed out is both the wealthiest African-American and person in the world.
“That’s right, he is African American,” Rock said. “Oh, he’s serious. Trump is not playing. He’s got Elon. They’re going to put them in a rocket ship–call it ‘SpaceMex,”
Rock concluded his speech by talking about how Joe Biden corruptly pardoned his son, Hunter.
‘I gotta hand it to Joe, he don’t move as fast as he used to, he don’t talk as fast as he used to,’ Rock said, ‘but that middle finger still works,’ he laughed, referring to the shocking pardon.
Conservatives certainly won’t like all of what Rock had to say. But, notably, SNL is again poking fun at liberals, and the funniest hits were against them.
Nature and America are starting to heal.
