Saturday Night Live actress Kate McKinnon reprised her role as U.S. Attorney General and former Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions during Saturday’s cold opener.
She was interviewed during an Anderson Cooper 360 skit, when she was asked by Cooper (played by Alex Moffat) about the recent firing of Andrew McCabe from the FBI.
“Mr. McCabe was in clear violation because of his lack of candor,” McKinnon’s Sessions said. “I can’t dance around. Trump made me do it.”
McKinnon’s character continues, “This is sneaky even for me. I was a simple man want who wanted to make things bad for immigrants and here I am, making things bad for a Christian white.”
Moffat’s Cooper then McKinnon’s Sessions about the AG’s fate: “Frankly, I can’t believe I’ve lasted this long.”
Kate McKinnon is talented enough to impersonate all of Washington, perhaps at the same time. Her goofy Jeff Sessions impression is the funniest one of them all. #SNLpic.twitter.com/qyUPbv2nhz
