"in terms of fish and with regard to bread"
they've nailed his strange wording haha
They've cornered the essence of Trump.
Strange wording = indicative of mental disorder (neurological illness) in addition to below normal IQ.
So true from the standpoint of humor 😂
Jesus came to me and he said "Sir..."
I'm JX100 the rap artist.
"He rose from the dead on the third day. I would have done it faster." :LOL. James Austin Johnson does the BEST Trump impression without a doubt!
he gives a healthier, paler looking Trump for sure. But I'm glad a good replacement for Baldwin's Trump has been found!
I love how long he stretches out the freeze-frame, pranking Mikey Day stuck in position...
Making Trump skits great again
his impersonation would be spot on if he wore a FAT-MAN suit under those clothes
His impression is SO freaking good!
The way he comes out of nowhere and says “sound familiar?” Fucking killed me 💀
He has got Trump down to perfection! The voice, the accent and inflections and all. Love it! 😂
Darrel did it better.
Sadly… I could see trump saying this entire skit! 😂
hilarious!
Omg the mannerisms!!!😂😂 The head tilting, his little sniffle between s3nt3nxes.. He's thought of it all!
A high price to pay for a few laughs. Very temporary, but the writers and actors will have to face the consequences for eternity. So sad.
"Sound familiar?" - Best Trump entrance ever
Jesus Christ .. I'm done
Watching him repeatedly try to make Mikey break and move. Amazing.
Poor Mikey Day having to hold his arm up that entire time.
I feel for the apostle having to crook his neck to the side - like, ouch. But yeah, Jesus (Mikey?) holding his arms up with his hands in the blessing position the entire skit? That's some damn good training 👏🏾. Nice job, everyone! 💐💐💐
James Farr!! Love your videos!!
@@bhornannawindeedeigh5007 The head tilt is not that bad. That's half of my zoom calls.
They’re trying to make him break! 😂😂😂😂 they must have said..”hey when he runs out of lines, don’t move for the cold open”
This is one of the best SNL skits ever. Absolutely brilliant!
I really like "Voters for trump" that was a hilarious snl
JAJ is able to carry a cold open all by himself. That's a remarkable talent.
He did it before when he first started on the show. I still don't know what possessed Lorne to let the new guy (JAJ) do it, but it was a gutsy decision.
Remarkable, but it's all they give him to do so he has time to.work on it.
He's able to riff as Trump for hours on basically any topic, it's fucking incredible
"In terms of fish and with regard to bread." I can't explain why, but this is just so perfect!!! 🤣🤣🤣
LMAO!! 😂😂😂😂😆 Ikr??!!!! 😄
That was my fave, too! 😂
I believe it’s a reference to this: m.th-cam.com/video/45X4WvkTK_I/w-d-xo.html
It is perfect. Every phrase and sentence is priceless.
Mc's Filet O'Fish sandwich!
Love how James takes time out of the sketch to try and get Mikey to break 😂
It’s all about that famous line.
Came close on the "fingers" joke.
I saw this when it was live last night and this is the fourth time I’ve watched it this morning and I’m still laughing. James is hilarious. He’s so relaxed and has a presence like he’s always been there since the show started.
James is "da bomb." Diversely talented!
It honestly feels like we're in a proper "new era" of SNL with so much quality talent across the board. Can't wait to see who makes the jump to more movies.
Best Trump impersonator I swear. 10/10 voice
Shane Gillis and Zach Hadel
"in terms of fish and regard to bread." 😂😂😂😂
Lorne...Everyone who held their pose and did not break during this sketch should be up for a raise...hilarious
...or a least a Happy Meal, c'mon!
Would need ratings for that. They don’t have it
@@joeylodes you're absolutely not triggered, I can tell.
Lorne is an asshat that would never even consider paying these amazing actors more.
@@joeylodes , well at least ‘Dr.’ Joey is watching.
Man... his Trump is terrifyingly on point.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I hadn't watched SNL is quite a while so this is the first time I'm seeing this new guy play Trump. He is without a doubt, the single best impersonator I have ever seen. Previously my favorite was Darrell Hammond, but I just gotta admit it, this dude is an absolute MONSTER.
James Austin Johnson does the best Trump ever! Jesus of Azkaban gets me every time (I am a huge Harry Potter fan) lol
“Just like Jesus, all I did was being friendly to a sex worker”😂😂
A reference to Mary Magdalene (and of course Stormy Daniels) , but I think that probably went over a lot of heads these days.
“…named Mary Macarena.” It was RIGHT there to use.
@Anders That is a dispute among Bible scholars and historians. But she became a faithful follower of Jesus after he cast out "seven demons" from her. ( Luke 8:2.) I was simply pointing out how I interpreted that line in this skit. Do you have another interpretation for this line in this Saturday Night Live skit? It's just comedy. It's a waste of time to start an online argument over this. But such are the times we live in. Sigh...
Yup it's called stormy Daniels
"He did Good Friday, I said why not make it great? we can make it great..." PURE GOLD 😂😂😂
TGIF 🤣😭🤣🤣😭😭🤣😂😂🤣😭

Now that I won is outs the way....
😂😂😂😂
Best writing in years on this sketch! No lazy transitions and well layered. The delivery enhanced the writing instead of working to make the writing hit. Great collab!
I WANT A BIDEN JOKE!! I DEMAND IT!!
@@colleen4everwaaaaa 😂
@@colleen4ever do your knuckles bleed from scraping the ground as you walk???
The way he inhales between sentences is amazingly accurate
Hiring James Austin Johnson was a brilliant move, Best Trump Impression by far
He just needs to add that awkward dementia lean trump does when he stands 😂 where his upper body is leaning forward
False. Shane Gillis is the correct answer. This guy sucks
Shane Gillis is way better.
Shane Gillis is better
Shane Gilly better fa sho but this dude good too
Having your arm in the air that long deserves an Oscar 🏆
I can't tell if Bowen is trying to hold onto his sleeve to help out or not
Doing it that long? Doable. Doing it that long without even twitching? Now that deserves some prize
@@moistnugget4147 Not to knock him, but he was twitching like a coke addict at the end there lmao
I always say that I understand why boom mic operators make so much lol
Or at least a grail :)
"SOUND FAMILIAR"!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Best "walk-on" EVER!!!!!!!!
His accuracy in the trump voice is incredible and uncanny!
If only Shane didn't fired...
...and the little tilt of the head, he ruins me 😂
Please give him an Emmy. There is no comparison. Genius.
Absolutely right. 😂😂😂😂😂
This one is destined to be a classic!
I know it’s a low bar, but he’s much better than the original!
Shane gillis
Amazing and spot on!!
Jesus of Azkaban 😂🤣 he killed this
Harry Potter and the Stormy Daniels Adventure!
This is the funniest thing SNL has done in a while. I can’t stop laughing
Smart of SNL to just James shine by himself. His ramblings and going on and off teleprompter cadence changes are amazingly accurate.
Not a teleprompter, but yeah lol
@@levythemenn7906 cue cards
@@levythemenn7906 yeah, what I meant was that he captures the changes that Trump always had when he would go on his "off-the-cuff" comments throughout his teleprompted speeches.
No teleprompter…cue cards are used. But yeah…
@@johnfury8834 I understood what you meant. And I agree. The best impersonators know how to do both Trumps: 1. Teleprompter trump and 2. off the cuff trump. They’re not just different in content but the tone and mannerisms are also different.
Not just the voice, but he has the rhythm, and a little bit of the Adderall-pickled brainwaves.
Hilarious
Also the trailing off whine at the end of sentences. :-D
"adderall-pickled brainwaves" got me XD
Perfect! "Adderall-pickled brainwaves." 🤣
All of his pickled brain mannerisms are so on point 😄
Tongue flick at 2:49 . . .
This guy is fucking brilliant. Best impression ever! Give him all the awards!
This was absolutely stellar! The cold opening goes down as one of the all time best --- in every way! Superb!
SNL at its very best!
JAJ is so good at the Trump it’s actually scary how good it is and how they keep improving the costume every single time.
Kudos to the makeup crew for the neck waddle
the flanged sleeves to make the hands looks smaller is a hilarious touch
They need Jabba the Hutt levels of makeup to really make it look real. Poor JAJ.
He really nailed the word association and tone of voice. I love these skits
The need to add a fat suit - he's much too svelte to look like the real lardass!
One of the best cold opens of the season by far. I was crying laughing 🤣
coulda been better as biden. but then there wouldnt be any dialogue
@@jamineamina5429 Aw, salty there Jamine? It's ok. One day tRump will be in jail, and then SNL can move on to the next republican traitor.
@@jamineamina5429 Biden was never arrested and facing far more severe charges very soon. He spoke well enough at the state of union.
@@jamineamina5429 weak diss.
@@jonahb2149 id deflect too. weak vote
His Trump impression is on point. The writing too - this sounds exactly like stuff he would say.
I don’t know why but I have watched this clip 4 times in 48hrs! 😂😂 it doesn’t get old!
“Like Jesus,all I did was befriend a sex worker and they want to put me in jail” 😂 I freakin laughed so hard at this line…
LOL I cracked up so hard at that one 😂
One of the best lines in a monologue of great lines. I almost fell off the couch when he said that one. Brilliant
Agreed, this skit is as good as any classical SNL skit.
Man is ALL FLESHED OUT and denies God, that he will stand before one day...
I am not a Christian, but this is one part of the bible that speaks to me. "She washed his feet with her tears and dried them with her hair."
Not only is his impression spot-on, the incoherent rambling is what makes it perfect.
Better than the original in so many ways…
Honestly. I'm not a big fan of SNL, but this one was pretty good.
Tears in his eyes gets me everytime.
"In terms of fish and with regard to bread" is such a perfect Trumpism.
I’m not either. My sisters are huge fans but my coworker sent me this. I’m at my desk laughing out loud 😂😂😂! My supervisor is in a meeting.
This dude's Trump impersonation is impeccable
Oh my word I don't know where to begin. Perfection. Holy crap. Pretended to like him? Gays out of Disney? Nepo baby? Birthday? Sex worker? TGI Friday. They loaded 80 jokes in a perfect imitation.
The writing, the delivery, the cast somehow managing not to break. Absolutely brilliant, perfect, comedy gold.
The writing, tho!
You think you’d say the same if they did a good skit making fun of biden or AOC?
@@GoOnTags DUNCE CAP KING. WOW.
@@GoOnTags well that just wouldn’t be funny since neither of them speak at an elementary school level. Nice try though!
The only thing I'll miss are these terrific routines, when flumpy goes off to prison and gradually fades into obscurity...
yeah, I know he is destined to be the punch line in political jokes forever more.
Mikey Day deserves props for his effort here...that left arm needed a rub down after that sketch!
Nothing about this skit is funny !
@@dvontaydeshazer830all of it was funny.
@@dvontaydeshazer830 Your hurt feelings only make it funnier
@@dvontaydeshazer830 ohhhh poor baby. I LMAO the entire time.
@@dvontaydeshazer830 it was hilarious.
I think I prefer JAJ as Trump than Baldwin
That is easily the most consistent Trump impression I've seen over an extended period of time, without breaking character. Absolutely uncanny.
I love how there’s actual trump quotes within the sketch 😂
"Tears in his eyes" I was like yes! Nailed it! 😅
Could you point them out? I haven't seen much of Trump lately.
I can see him or hear him say exact verbiage or something similar.
Just watch the latest rally of his and jot it all down, reword some of it and then turn James Austin Johnson loose!
@@sandeshvantveen Lol
In today's interview with Tucker talking about withdrawal from Afghanistan, he said "I would have done it faster" 🤣🤣
This is the best Trump impression ive seen. Im in stitches 😂
Better than the original!
I agree him and Jamie fox lol
Watch last week's open! Even better!
This was an impression?
check out J.L. Cauvin's trump sometime.
Wait. That wasn’t Trump? 😂
Absolutely incredible!
This is a brilliant sketch. I have watched it more times than I can count.
"My friends....and Judas...." 😆😆😆😆 Right out of the gate!
I cannot believe it's only his second (!!!) season. James Austin Johnson is an absolute gem of comedy.
It's rare that a cast member in an early season has been given so much prominence in the show. It demonstrates how great he is.
In no world is this man funny. I doubt there is even a live crowd in front of him. There is no way human beings laugh at this tired shit.
I keep forgetting he isn't Daryl Hammond.
How dare you say that about a straight white male you bigot.
@@ColinPoole exactly
My family was watching this and they could not stop laughing! Neither could I to be honest!
Laughing at disrespecting Hod. Disgusting
Pretty sure this was the most I've ever laughed for an SNL cold open. Beautiful.
Especially loved seeing Mikey Day trying so hard to not crack. Amazing!
The whole fingers thing was definitely improv, right? Mikey literally full body shaking, trying to stop himself from breaking. JAJ is a GOAT
That's show bizz. The show must go on!
They really did freeze, they didn't move I thought it was green screen. How did they freeze that well?
Yeah, I got the feeling James was improvising that part, trying to get Mikey to break character. Great stuff!
I would have broke character the first time he said it 😂😂😂
If it was off script, even better since Trump is famously known for going off script
It is WILD how accurate his impersonation is. This ain't a skit, it's real life 🤣(sadly).
Sadly the truest comment here!
James Austin Johnson is spot on. Incredible and hilarious.
One of the greatest 5 minutes of Comedy, pure genius.
kudos to all cast members around the table freezing their poses
"He rose from the dead on the 3rd day, I would've done it faster, possibly 2." 🤣
It would be the elevator down to meet his maker who has a HOT 🔥spot for evil😈
James repeatedly trying to get Mikey to break was the highlight of this cold open.
Just when you think SNL is dead, they come up with 2 jewels, first Mikey andQuinta with a brilliant sketch and the following week we get this. They are really upping their game😂
IT IS DEAD!!! WHERE ARE THE BIDEN JOKES?!
This would be funny save for the fact that I can 100% believe Trump would actually say all of this, and the impression is absolutely spot on. Probably the most accurate Trump impression I've seen, and there have been many.
This was honestly brilliant comedy, and I think this might be one of the strongest opens I’ve seen in years. This season of SNL has seriously renewed my excitement for this show. I think this is the best cast they’ve had in a while, and the writing has been very good.
I think the last few seasons have been pretty darn strong. There are still "so-so" episodes every once in a while, but they're rare.
James is amazing, but without the genius of Kate Mckinnon it's not a patch on what it was.
That is one good thing that came from drumpfs, loads of free comedy
I agree! This was one the best for openings for sure! I just woke up and was still laughing so hard.🤣🤣🤣
Yes!!! I gotta agree.😂
These James Austin Trump cold opens are absolutely epic tier. I haven't laughed so hard watching SNL since the 90s/early 2000s. This season was expected to be such a lull, but the writers and cast are CRUSHING IT!
Some were saying the show should end,with so many leaving,this has absolutely been one of their best seasons,the show isn't nearly so hit and miss like it used to be,credit to the talented cast of senior and new members 👏👍
@@jmnny85
I have been watching SNL since the First Season, in 1975 and it never gets old.
Sometimes the Sketch "misses" the mark, but the Show has an ability to constantly "reinvent" itself each week, with a new host and then every few years, with a new Cast.
For nearly Half a Century, SNL has been a part of my Weekend.
Imagine a three or four hour "SNL Reunion" with Chevy Chase, Eddie Murphy, etc? Imagine all the SNL Stars from nearly 50 years in ONE show?
What about it Lorne Michaels?
@@rdelrosso2001 Hello "Mailman".......
LANDSHARK! 😂😂
Been watching since highschool. 👍
@@jmnny85 Exactly, when so many cast members left I thought this season would be a catastrophe. But it turns out the new fresh faces and new writers was the shot in the arm this season needed.
Diaper Don doesn't pay his bills, he decide to pay ONE and look what happened 😅🤣😂🤣😅🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣😅
This man deserves an Emmy 🏆
Easily the best SNL political sketch since Tina Fey saw Russia from Sarah Palin’s house.
...or Melissa McCarthy doing Sean Spicer.
Or that time they made fun of a Democrat... you know... that one time... I'm sure they have
@@tubahug They've insulted biden multiple times so sush.
@Ponder Parett yes... because Bill and Hilary Clinton aren't Democrats. Loser 😂
@harry69007 sure they have champ
By far one of the best cold opens in the last 10 years
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I agree. I laughed so hard 😂😂
Last week was great too! 🙂
I came here to say that knowing someone else would have done the same
It is astonishing to me that they held their poses for so long. I rewound it and held up my hand like Jesus is and could only go 60 some seconds. I think Johnson pranked his fellow cast members by rambling on much longer than they expected. This opening will eventually and forever be considered one of the top ten of all time.
Great idea! I made it from Trump's entry to 4:20, and then it was just getting to painful. I'm impressed all over that the entire lot of them managed to keep their poses, but poor Jesus of Azkaban really must have trained for this.
Classic stuff. Funniest line: "I would have done it in two days,"
He's talking about taking documents home only took two days for him
Jesus resurrected in 3 days but DJT is saying he could resurrect in 2 days.
He's a great comedic actor. What he does is so much more profound than just the voice and cadence. I bet he's a very talented dramatic actor as well.
Check out his Better Call Saul episode from Season 4. He’s a sweetheart. He plays an employee in a Money Wire store and interacts with a “good” guy and then a bad guy comes in to find out what the good guy wanted. It’s a small role but you get to see him be a cordial by the book employee to a sympathetic break the rules employee to a terrified employee.
The Last Temptation of Trump. In the past minute.
🤭
Trump was being generous with a sex worker.Again a man of the people.
.....and he succumbed!!! God don' like Him no trademark infringements
Funny line! Thanks!
Passion of The Don! Why thou father did you abandon me?
This is the only time I will listen/ watch anything about this individual . Best impression ever😂
‘In terms of fish and in regards to bread…’ Hilarious!
The transition from a skit about the Last Supper to a monologue featuring the former president was totally unexpected. I haven't laughed this hard over a cold open in a long time. James Austin Johnson is brilliant and so very funny!
I'm just replying so you can see how much likes you got
"Jesus turned water into wine. Pure profit." Who thought of that line?
I bet you JAJ wrote every single line of this. He consistently posted shit like this in 2020
I’ve watched this so many times…everything about it-the set design, lighting, costumes, 🔥JAJ🔥. I’ve seen clips where it’s just JAJ part, but I enjoy this entire skit version best.
Best SNL skit ever imo
Underrated joke alert: "Even on his birthday, Easter"
I think that joke gets missed by a lot of people because the whole sketch is just sheer ridiculousness
This is one of the funniest SNL openings in a long time 😂😂 Everyone absolutely crushed it, couldn't stop laughing
No. The only funny thing is how stupid the writers are.
The balloon shootdown one with Bowen Yang a couple months back was pretty darn hilarious too.
"He rose from the dead on the third day, I would have done faster, possibly two" 😂😂
That "sex worker" line was gold lol.
The best cold open in a long time! Every line and delivery was spot on!!!
Hands down the best Cold Open in ages and JAJ’s best Trump bit yet… which is saying something given they’re all hysterical. So good. Pure genius.
You have to watch last weeks Trump cold open. The way Trump stares with his unpleasant face at the start makes me burst out laughing.
NO!!!!! THEY'RE NOT DOING IT RIGHT!! SNL IS SUPPOSED TO MAKE FUN OF THE CURRENT PRESIDENT IN THE COLD OPENS!!! And don't say that that's not possible cause them guy is a walking gold mine!!
Colleen I hate to break it to you but as long as Donald continues to engage in newsworthy public behavior SNL will have no choice but to make fun of the Big Orange Trainwreck.
You mean hands up, look at the fingers lol
@Stephanie Zimbalist you liberals are sick in the head. You hate trump but can't spend 1 minute of your day not thinking about him. Get a life.
Now THIS is the SNL we’ve been missing!! Writing on point. Jokes been executed beautifully! Amazing job James Austin Johnson!!
You have something there. The first ensemble cast of the avante garde Saturday Night Live excelled at nuanced humor, wit, satire, timing, every episode treated with the excitement of the first, and with the excellence necessary, in case it were the last. They were never stilted, never contrived. They did what nobody dared do, nobody could do, but these pioneers. Certain subsequest casts and members tried too hard, trying to force us to enjoy, trying to fit the popular mold, and they fell short.
This sketch has done what the originals did, did the bold, the excellent, the daring, with the believability that swept us in as partners in the world of that moment. They did it so handily, as best described by the _Tao Te Ching:_ "The Master never has to try hard, because he already _is_ what he needs to be."
Yes!
You have no wisdom bc you have no fear of GOD...
@@mightymystery9204 solid😊
Better than baldwins for sure.
His impersonation of Trump has become spot on! Excellent
Jesus of Azkaban is possibly the best thing I've heard all year 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Give the Last Supper Group a Raise! To not crack up or lose their poses. Bravo!!
it must've been tough, especially when he kept turning back and talking about the hands hahaha
Poor Mikey! It took everything he had not to break! Big kudos to him!
“Jesus of Askaban … weird choice with the fingers.” 😅😅😅
Look at Jesus with the fingers! Utterly brilliant!😂😂😂
One of the best snl cold opens of all time
The thing with Mikey’s hands 😂😂😂
He’s just amazing… incredible impersonator
Holy cow, that is FUNNY! Best trump impression EVER
James Austin Johnson is a national treasure. His impressions are spot on. I hope we will enjoy him on SNL for a long time.
Can you believe they used to use Alec Baldwin’s trash impression. That’s was literally dogshit
Me too!!!
I hope his talent wont be needed except to imitate Trump in prison
@@Theire1but he won't be in prison. Only Biden will take his place.
@@Spsuperstar there’s always that one brainless Trumpkin in the crowd that everyone laughs at , but they’re cluelessly unaware.
His impression is 2nd to none! He has completely mastered his voice and mannerisms. Nobody will ever come close!
Some people say it's the biggest, best impression ever done. Bigly!
I don't know why they don't put him in a fat suit though...
@@anthonyc8963 Time.
James Austin Johnson has the best script writer... Trump himself.
"Sound familiar?" It was death by laughter after that. This guy doesn't just sound and move like Trump, he IS Trump! Omigawd, TWO OF THEM ON EARTH! 😂
Lmfao "my friends and Judas"
Judas's reaction is hilarious
Love him commenting on them being frozen 😂
THIS IS GENIUS My favorite line 4:02 " so tomorrow I will eat my easter hamburger with my family, ...or... hopefully not"
He's got the voice down pat.
