SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE went to President Donald Trump relentlessly, and even compared his rapid impact on the government with the speed with which Osama Bin Laden changed the airport protection in the United States after the terrorist attacks of 9/11.
The devastating Zinger came from Michael Che, who organizes weekend updates with Colin Jost.
At the start of his Tuesday address for both houses of the congress, Trump said: “We have achieved more in 43 days than most administrations in four years or eight years, and we have just started.”
Che reached for a comparison and found it with the former leader of Al Qaida, who was killed during the presidency of Barack Obama by Navy Seal's in his Pakistan shelter in 2011.
“President Trump addressed a joint session of the congress and said that no president has changed the government faster than he did. Yes, and nobody changed the airport protection faster than Bin Laden, “said Che.
Although the joke laughs a lot in the SNL studio, it was not that funny for some others.
One person responded to X and said, “Michael Che, who compares Trump to eliminating the Government Government to Bin Laden who committed the mass murder of 3000 people on 9/11 is one of the only stupidest things I've ever heard in my life.”
Someone else said that the joke was 'furious' and claimed that only Che could get away with it. “

Bin Laden's joke got a lot of laughter in the SNL studio, but did not go so well with some on social media
Jost also pointed his sights on Trump and kicked the show with a joke about wishing that the country could completely skip its second presidency.
“Well, tomorrow the start of daylight saving time when we put our clocks forward, ideally four years,” he said.
The faux news anchors also made many wisecracks about Trump's foreign policy when it comes to the war and rates of Russia-Ukraine and rates for the best trading partners in America.
Jost characterized Trump's heated Oval Office Showdown last week with VolodyMyr Zensky in Ukraine while defending our historical best friend Russia. “
“Trump returned this week to attacking our sworn enemy … Canada,” he said. 'That's right. That syrup-Guzzling, Poutine-Smotting, Elden-Humping Hockey sluts have abused us for far too long. '
Che focused on the sudden reversal of Trump of the rates on most Mexican and Canadian goods two days after he had implemented them.
'After imposing rates on Mexico and Canada on Tuesday, President Trump reversed them on Thursday. It is a cunning political tactics that experts call bipolar disorder, “Che joked.
Trump originally went on 25 percent in February about the rates of Mexico and Canada, but gave the countries a delay for a month after they agreed to set more staff on the border to prevent deadly Fentanyl from entering the US.
Che often did not buy Trump's reason for the rates against our neighbor in the north, with reference to a statistics from the American customs and border patrol that was only seized 43 pounds of Fentanyl on the Canadian border during the last tax year.
In addition to making a BIN Laden-joke, Che has also ridiculed Trump for his drugmokery for rates on Canada
The hosts of the weekend update spent the rest of the segment with Clowning on Elon Musk (shown: a protest in Pasadena, California, outside a Tesla dealer on March 8, 2025)
“President Trump said that the rates for goods from Canada are to stop the flow of Fentanyl, although last year only 40 pounds of the drug was seized on the northern border. Forty pounds? What is that, like two butt fills? '
Jost ended the discussion about rates by sneaking in a shot at Elon Musk, the leader of the cost -saving Ministry of Government Efficiency and the CEO of Tesla.
'Experts say that President Trump's rates will increase the costs of a new car by no less than $ 12,000. Or you can get a free Tesla because people throw them away, “Jost said.
Before Trump's wide break over rates, he took care of car imports via the USMCA, the trade agreement that he negotiated with Mexico and Canada in his first term.
The current tariff break on most goods that arrive via the USMCA ends on April 2.
Jost and Che spent the rest of the segment ridiculing Musk because they were supposedly bullied by Trump to wear a suit during his conference speech and during the recent controversial cabinet meeting.
Jost then closed it with a reference to rumors this week that Donald Trump Jr. In 2028 a run for President is considering, a memory that let the audience moan full of disgust.
“If you don't think he could win, you are clearly not familiar with how things work here in hell,” he said.
