SNL’s ‘It’s a Wonderful Trump’ Presents Alternate History Where Trump Lost
The final Saturday Night Live cold open of 2018 opened with the words, “Lord, please help Donald Trump. He’s not a good man, but he is in trouble.”
Snow fell on a White House balcony as Alec Baldwin’s Trump told Clarence the Angel, “Sometimes I wish I had never been president.” And with that, “It’s a Wonderful Trump” began.
In this alternate, black-and-white reality, Sarah Huckabee Sanders was doing PR for Facebook and Kellyanne Conway was “no longer eaten from within by lies.” She told Trump, “After we lost the campaign, the devil gave me back my soul. So, excuse me, I have to go find my husband, who I do speak to now.”
