I\u2019ve seen those photos of you in your gray sweatpants.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tAt the end of Culkin\u2019s brief cameo, Hamm threw a jab towards his way, saying, \u201cAlright, whatever dude, you know, that <em>Mad Men<\/em> was better than <em>Succession<\/em>.\u201d Culkin then parted ways before refuting Hamm\u2019s comments, saying, \u201cI love you, bye.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tAfter the recent Oscar winner left the stage, Hamm showed his love for <em>SNL<\/em>: \u201cWell, I guess what I\u2019m trying to say is whether I\u2019m hosting or just popping by, it\u2019s great to be on this show in any capacity.

Saturday night marked Hamm\u2019s long-awaited return to the NBC sketch comedy <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> after his last hosting gig in 2010.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Jon Hamm Monologue - SNL\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xnT8rBcGLxM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tAt the start of the show, <em>SNL<\/em> once again riffed on President Donald Trump\u2019s new tariff plan that sent the country into a trade war \u2014 with a religious twist.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tThe NBC sketch comedy show\u2019s cold open began with a voice narrating, \u201cEaster, the celebration of the risen Christ. The Bible tells us that Jesus and his disciples <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">travel<\/a>ed to the city of Jerusalem. While there, Jesus visited the temple and enraged upon seeing money changers transacting business within its sacred walls, expelled them all. In mere days, Jesus would be arrested and crucified, only to rise again on the 3rd day, but it began with the cleansing of the temple.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tThe camera then cuts to a parody of the cleansing of the temple, with Mikey Day playing Jesus. \u201cThis should be a house of prayer. These merchants and money changers have turned it into a den of thieves,\u201d Day\u2019s Jesus says. \u201cI will rid this place of all its money,\u201d he says before James Austin Johnson\u2019s Trump enters the shot, saying, \u201cRemind you of anyone?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cI also got rid of money last week, but instead of one temple, I did the whole country, maybe even the globe. The money\u2019s gone high,\u201d Johnson\u2019s Trump says. \u201cIt\u2019s me, your favorite President Donald \u2018Jesus\u2019 Trump, comparing myself to the Son of God once again, you know, many people are even calling me the Messiah for the mess I made out of the economy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tHe continues, \u201cAll because of my beautiful tariffs. They\u2019re so beautiful, they were working so well that I had to stop them. The Prime Minister of Canada, big guy, tears in his eyes, he called me and he said, \u2018Sir, if you do this, you will upend the global economy, take the stocks and bond markets and unite your allies against you.\u2019 And I said, \u2018Let me cook!&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cSo we had to stop, but now everything is back exactly how it was, minus a few trillion dollars. Oh well,\u201d he continues, \u201cIt\u2019s true, the stock market did a Jesus \u2014 it died, then on the third day, it was risen. And then on the fourth day, it died again, possibly never to return, just like Jesus.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tLater in the episode, Johnson\u2019s Trump returns for a sketch inspired by <em>The White Lotus<\/em>. Seemingly based on season three\u2019s finale, the cast resumes roles of the infamous Ratliff family who are plagued by financial troubles. Johnson\u2019s Trump was a clear parody of Jason Isaacs\u2019s Timothy Ratliff, while Chloe Fineman portrays Melanie Trump (Parker Posey\u2019s Victoria Ratliff), Mikey Day joins as Donald Trump Jr. (Patrick Schwarzenegger\u2019s Saxon), Alex Moffat joins as Eric Trump (Sam Nivola\u2019s Lochan) and a surprise appearance from Scarlett Johansson as Ivanka Trump (Sarah Catherine Hook\u2019s Piper).<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cWe are so lucky that America will always be a rich and powerful nation. I mean, can you imagine how awful it would be if America lost all its money and no one in the world respected us anymore?\u201d Fineman\u2019s Melania says to the Trump-Ratliff family as Austin\u2019s Trump gets a message with an article headline that says, \u201cTrump Triggers Worldwide Recession.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cYou would never let our economy go to pieces. Right, hun?\u201d Fineman\u2019s Melania says.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
