SNL cast members reveal new ‘hot jacked Trump’ character in MAGA-friendly cold open

The cast of Saturday Night Live wasted no time in unveiling a new “hot jacked Trump” character as they claimed their sudden allegiance to the president-elect.

Donald Trump was declared the victor by Fox News early Wednesday after running against Vice President Kamala Harris in the historic election.

And the cast of SNL returned to the stage live from New York City to address the results during a suspiciously MAGA-friendly cold open — and, of course, introduce two new characters.

A ‘hot jacked Trump’ and Dana Carvey as his political buddy, a jumping Elon Musk.

As the hot Trump walked onto the stage in a black muscle tank and a red bandana, he flexed his muscles and protruding arm veins at the audience.

The cast of SNL took to the stage on Saturday to talk about the results during a suspiciously MAGA-friendly cold open — and, of course, introduced two new characters — one of whom was “hot jacked Trump.”

“They finally got the body right,” Trump 2.0 said. “But from now on, we're going to do very flattering portraits of Trump, because honestly... he's my hero.”

“They finally got the body right,” Trump 2.0 said. “But from now on, we’re going to do very flattering portraits of Trump, because honestly… he’s my hero.”

“They finally got the body right,” he said. “But from now on, we’re going to do very flattering portraits of Trump, because honestly… he’s my hero.”

“And he’s going to be an incredible president and ultimately KING!” We love you buddy,” he added as he blew a kiss at the camera.

When the cast first began its cold open on Saturday, the mood was somber as talk of Trump taking back the Oval Office after his landslide victory.

“Donald Trump, who tried to overturn the results of the last election by force, was overwhelmingly put back in office,” sighed Heidi Gardner.

“Thanks to the Supreme Court, there are no guardrails now,” Bowen Yang told the crowd.

But then the mood quickly started to change to something festive.

“That’s why we at SNL want to say to Donald Trump… We’ve always been with you!” said Kenan Thompson.

‘We have NEVER wavered in our support of you!’ Yang said mockingly as he rolled his eyes. ‘Even when others doubted you!’

The cast doubles down on their claims, stating that everyone on stage always believed in the former president and even voted for him… at least once.

“I voted for you fifty times in Pennsylvania,” Gardner smiled.

They continued to explain why they voted for Trump at the ballot box, noting that when they look at him, they see themselves in Trump.

“That’s the man I want my future children to look up to,” Sarah Sherman said confidently.

The cast even went so far as to recall the January 6 riot at the Capitol, which they said their only regret is not being able to participate in another one because they “were ready for it.”

And of course, Weekend Update co-host Colin Jost took the time to call out Michael Che.

“We know you say things that are controversial,” Jost added. “But basically you’re just telling the truth, and I hate how the lame media, Michael Che, is trying to twist it to make you look foolish.”

Thompson addressed Trump into the camera, wondering if the former president kept some sort of list of his enemies before another cast member said, “Then we should NOT be on that list.”

Ego Nwodim explained to the audience that although 92 percent of black women voted for Kamala Harris, she was among the “proud eight percent.”

And in true supporter form, the cast said that if they find out anyone on stage voted for Kamala, they will “sell them out so quickly.”

The camera then panned to “three disgusting new cast members” voting for Kamala, along with their names and a cast member in the back shouting, “You can find their home addresses online.” Hail Trump.”

The cast also debuted another new character – Elon Musk – who came on stage dancing and screaming

While claiming their loyalty to the future commander-in-chief, the cast turned the camera to their “three new disgusting cast members” voting for Kamala Harris.

The cast told the audience that they are so excited about their newest character – Trump 2.0 – and can’t wait to see what he does with the country this time.

“I keep waking up screaming in the middle of the night,” Nwodim said. ‘With joy, of course!’

And they offered a little reminder of the infamous Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, noting that the only regret they feel is that they weren’t able to participate in such a riot themselves.

“I was ready!” Sherman added as Jost walked into the frame and chimed in while dressed as the QAnon shaman, wearing a furry Viking hat with bull horns.

But it wouldn’t be a post-election SNL post without a mention of the “beloved and trusted” Elon Musk.

At the end of the cold open, the cast brought up the

At the end of the cold open, the cast brought up the “unseen young men” who were a key factor in the outcome of the election, singing “you don’t have to be unhappy” to the tune of YMCA.

‘Worst case, we could all go to Mars if our planet falls apart!’ Thompson exclaimed.

Elon Musk 2.0 – a stuttering, thin character wearing a black hat and outfit – walked out dancing when he was approached.

“But seriously… I run the country now,” Carvey said, fake laughing. He also mentioned his “super cool and super fun” rockets.

The cold open ends with the cast bringing up the “unseen young men” who were a crucial part of the election’s outcome before bursting into song.

“You don’t have to be unhappy,” they sang in the tune of YMCA as they danced along with their two newest – and memorable – political characters.
