Saturday Night Live’s cold open is the last one before the holidays, and the final episode of Strongs features James Austin Johnsons Trump tricking his fans with expensive NFTs.

Before Saturday Night Live started tonight, the sketch-comedy show announced on its Instagram that this will be Cecily Strong’s final appearance on the show after 11 years of happy service.

But before we get to his big send-off, SNL dropped a cold open featuring Donald Trump (James Austin Johnson) hawking his NFT collection—a choice that even the former president was mocked by some of his closest. allies.

“We call them nifties because they’re so neat,” Trump explained. “They feature incredible artwork that pertains to my life and my career. For example, when I was an astronaut, or riding a big elephant. The Trump cards are ninety-nine dollars each. It’s like a lot, seems like a scam, and in many ways, but we love Trump cards. We just love them. You can get them for free too just by going online and looking at them. Maybe taking a screenshot. I don’t know.”

“And the best part is: each card has an automatic chance to win an exclusive mystery prize where you can get anything from this beautiful box,” he continued, holding a crate overflowing with classified information.

Trump introduced his “third least embarrassing child,” Donald Trump Jr. (Mikey Day), to help him with the sales pitch.

“I know what you’re thinking: ninety-nine dollars? You get two grams for that!” Don Jr. exclaimed, before introducing a Christmas CD he was selling from his girlfriend, Kimberly Guilfoyle. Trending

At the same time, Cecily Strong’s Guilfoyle appeared in a Christmas-red dress.

“Thank you! And I know you’ll love this Christmas album I call, Now That’s What No One Calls Music!” he said. “And I guarantee you will sleep in heavenly PEACE!”
