Saturday Night LiveThe 50th season of the series premiered with Maya Rudolph reprising her role as “fun aunt” Kamala Harris, this time holding a hilarious campaign rally while Donald Trump and J.D. Vance try not to disturb the attendees at their rally.
Rudolph, whose role was announced in July, first played the role five years ago when the then-California senator was seeking the Democratic nomination. The following year, she returned to late-night shows as Biden's running mate.

After she was pushed off the stage, Rudolph introduced her husband, Doug Emhoff. former SNL Cast member Andy Samberg took on the role, introducing himself as the “second gentleman”.
Meanwhile, at Trump's rally – in its third hour – former President James Austin Johnson was spending his time worrying about his supporters getting up and leaving.
“Where the hell is everyone going? Where are you going? I see you trying to leave, but the doors are locked!” He said as the shot panned to Rudolph who was dancing behind the stage.

“What we wouldn't give for him to stand next to me and be old!” He lamented his declining re-election chances and repeated the debunked idea that immigrants eat pets.

“Now I'm sure you've all heard what the liberal media said about me. I'm a creep. I'm a weirdo. What the hell am I doing here?” he said, referring to Radiohead's “Creep.”
“I'll tell you what I'm doing here: stirring up this crowd!” He said as one of the people sitting behind him got up and left.
