Kate McKinnon turned on her most charming Elizabeth Warren for an appearance by her inner senator and Democratic presidential candidate on “Weekend Update.”
“Warren” was so very upset — not — when informed by host Colin Jost that big-money donors would rather back Donald Trump.
“You’re kidding me,” she said in mock horror. “What? The billionaires don’t like me? Oh no!” She added: “I’m going to tell them exactly what my grandson told me when he took me to ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ — ’This ain’t for you.’”
Then again, McKinnon said snidely, “taking big checks from Wall Street worked out great for the last lady running for president.”
Asked about two right-wing conspiracy theorists’ report that she had a paid bondage relationship with a 20-something Marine, McKinnon smiled and said sarcastically: “That’s Elizabeth’s Warren’s vibe for sure.” But “if you think I’m going to room with a veteran and I don’t immediately thank him for his service and then make sure he’s getting his VA benefits, you’re insane,” McKinnon added.
