The Democratic candidate appeared on the very popular sketch show “Saturday Night Live”, nicknamed SNL, Saturday November 2 in the evening, two days before the presidential election.
Kamala Harris goes all out. Two days before the presidential election, scheduled for November 5, the Democratic candidate decided to play the humor card by participating in the evening of Saturday, November 2 Saturday Night Livea very popular sketch show in the United States and broadcast on NBC.
The Democrat engages in a humorous scene in the company of actress Maya Rudolph, dressed and styled exactly like her. The two women face each other in a setting reminiscent of the dressing rooms of a television show.
“If only I could talk to someone who has been in my shoes, you know, a Black and South Asian woman running for president, preferably in the San Francisco Bay Area,” says Maya Rudolph, facing the laughing audience.
“You and me, sister,” the vice-president replies, as she sits across from her, appearing to speak to her reflection in the mirror. Loud applause follows.
“You can do it”
“Very happy to see you, Kamala. I'm just here to tell you: you can do it,” proclaims the vice-president to her double, in a barely veiled allusion to the vote.
“Because you can achieve something that your opponent is incapable of achieving. You can open doors,” supports the candidate, more than ever in the campaign.
As actress Maya Rudolph laughs exaggeratedly, Kamala Harris suddenly interrupts: “I don't really laugh like that, right?” “A little bit,” the actress replies, looking falsely embarrassed. A way of banking on self-deprecation, in a particularly virulent campaign, while Donald Trump regularly makes fun of his rival's laughter.
The show Saturday Night Livenicknamed SNL, regularly makes fun of the American political class. Other politicians, such as Hillary Clinton and Barack Clinton, have made appearances there.
D-2 before the election
Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have been canvassing key states in the presidential election for several weeks in search of voter support.
At a meeting in North Carolina, the former president renewed his attacks on Saturday against “Kamala with a low IQ”, whose possible presidency from January 20 would trigger, according to him, “a depression of the type of 1929”.
The Democrat, conversely, appeared as a unifier at a meeting in the same state, expressing her desire to be the “president of all Americans”.
