Good impressions. Who was that “eggo” Trump kept talking about, the cast-member playing Vivek Ramaswamy? That was Ego Nwodim (a woman).
I thought that was a very well-written cold open. The Trump impersonator, James Austin Johnson, is so good they must worry he’s going to cause the audience to kind of love Trump. We haven’t faced such a risk since Charlie Chaplin impersonated Hitler.
Here‘s an article about Johnson, from last summer, in the Chicago Sun-Times. Johnson is opposed to Trump’s political positions, but realized that, to do a successful impersonation, he needed to like something about Trump:

“I figured out that I had to abstract it and move it into the dumb world and make it silly and stupid and do actual comedy. The thing I found I like about Donald Trump is he’s a funny guy, just look at his speeches,” he says. “Then I just started having Trump talk about Radiohead and ‘Final Fantasy VII’ wizards and stuff like that. I used the Trump speech patterns and it was something about harnessing the way that he talks and the way that he sounds, but totally divorcing it from things he would actually talk about. No matter how much you like or dislike him, your opinion about him doesn’t affect a thing in the world. It doesn’t affect his policies or his popularity. So why am I trying to preach, why am I trying to tell people how to feel about him? What the hell do I know? I should just be silly and helping us laugh and shrug through a really crazy period of history.”
