SNL Weekend Update Satirizes Trump Over Fake Nobel Peace Prize

Saturday Night Live’s Weekend Update didn’t hold back when skewering Donald⁣ Trump’s acceptance of a Nobel Peace Prize medal ‌he didn’t actually win. ‍They also took aim at his foreign⁤ policy, pointing⁣ out its disconnect from‍ his “America First” mantra.

Trump received the ⁢medal this week from​ Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Machado, who is⁣ seeking his support to possibly‌ succeed President Nicolas Maduro. Reports suggest Machado hopes Trump’s ⁢backing will come after Maduro’s capture by U.S.forces. Trump frequently boasts ⁢about ending eight‍ wars, yet​ he actively lobbied for the Nobel Peace⁢ Prize. When that didn’t ​pan out, he settled for the “FIFA Peace Prize,” thanks⁣ to his friend, Gianni Infantino.
