Saturday Night Live Season 50 finale recap - The Cold Open
The Cold Open features Trump's recent trip to Saudi Arabia, where he met Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman. He expresses,
"I, of course, am a big fan of everything that Saudi Arabia has to offer, from the oil to the money to- end of list. But it's been a fantastic week in the Middle East. I also went to Qatar, the UAE, and much like God did during passover, I skipped Israel."
Trump joked about the $1 billion deal that the Saudi Prince has made with Boeing and how it will be a "funeral." The context refers to how Boeing planes crash all the time, causing injury and death in the United States.
A new shift was seen when he broke the "fourth wall" and sat with the audience. Delivering a conclusion to his Trump performance from this season, James Austin Johnson bids farewell to watchers from New York.
