surprise appearance on Saturday Night Live — where she played a “mirror image” of herself and joked about her own screechy laugh in a final media push before Tuesday’s election.Harris came face-to-face with her impersonator Maya Rudolph in the show’s cold open.The skit began with a CNN newscast that cut to a James Austin Johnson impression of former President Donald Trump at a rally dressed in the orange garbage man vest that he wore this past week at a campaign event.The open cuts to Maya Rudolph, Andy Samberg, and Jim Gaffigan as Harris, Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff and Harris’ running mate, Gov.

Tim Walz, respectively.Dana Carvey also made an appearance as President Joe Biden.Rudolph’s Harris clears the room saying she “needs a moment to herself.”“I wish I could talk to someone in my shoes,” Rudolph said to herself in the empty room.Then the real Kamala Harris appears in the dressing room mirror.“You and me both sister!,” Harris said, grinning ear to ear after thirty seconds of applause from the live audience.

Harris went on to say, “I’m here to remind you, you’ve got this, because you can do something your opponent can’t do, you can open doors.”When Rudolph let out a loud, familar Kamala cackle, the candidate said, “I don’t really laugh like that do I?”The pair had fun with the veep’s name.

Harris said she would end the “dramala” of politics with her election and the two said in unison, “Keep Kamala and Carry Onala.”“I’m gonna vote for us,” Rudolph says.“Any chance you’re registered in Pennsylvania?,” Harris quipped.The veep also joined in on the quintessential “Live from New York, it’s Saturday Night!”Harris did not get as friendly a welcome as she left the SNL studios at Rockefeller Center, as anti-Israel.
