In its latest skit, Saturday Night Live humorously depicts President Trump likening himself to Jesus amidst economic turmoil. Cast member James Austin Johnson, impersonating Trump, satirizes the president's handling of recent tariffs and the economy. Trump quips about being called 'the Messiah' due to the mess he made, using dramatic biblical imagery to draw comparisons between the stock market's fluctuations and Jesus' resurrection. The levity also addresses inflation, particularly rising egg prices, further blending Easter themes with economic commentary.
Many people are calling me the Messiah, because of the mess-I-ah made out of the economy.
It's true, the stock market did a Jesus. It died, then on the third day it was risen. And then on a fourth day, it died again, possibly never to return. Just like Jesus.
We look in our 401k and say, 'Jesus Christ, where did it all go?'
We love Easter. We love bunny. We love hunting for eggs, just like everyone's doing in the grocery store right now. Because they cost a trillion billion dollars.
