SNL Mocks Kamala Harris Watching Walz and Vance “Vibrates” During Vice Presidential Debate Skit: “Why Are They Friends?”

SNL Mocks Kamala Harris Watching Walz and Vance “Vibrates” During Vice Presidential Debate Skit: “Why Are They Friends?”

“Saturday Night Live” on Saturday mocked Vice President Kamala Harris in a skit that focused on the vice presidential debate between Gov. Tim Walz and Sen. JD Vance and showed Maya Rudolph, who played Harris, watching the evening unfold over a glass of wine.

Jim Gaffigan, who played Walz, and Bowen Yang, who played Vance, were shown having an intense moment of agreement, focusing on the parts of the actual debate where both candidates said they agreed.

“Why are they friends? Why are they vibrating?” Rudolph shouted after spitting out her wine.

Andy Samberg, who played Harris’ husband Doug Emhoff, sat next to Rudolph as they watched the parody debate.

“I don’t know, Dougie, I wish I had chosen Josh by now,” Rudolph said after debate moderators asked a question about the Middle East and neither candidate gave any answers.

“Who, Josh Shapiro?” Samberg asked as Rudolph replied, “No, Josh, Cabernet,” while holding up a bottle of “Josh” wine.

Samberg told Rudolph not to worry because it wasn’t like Gaffigan was going to say anything “crazy.”

“I became friends with school shooters,” Gaffigan then said, referencing a moment from Walz during the debate.

Rudolph then broke her wine glass in her hand as Samberg acknowledged a “flub” from her vice president.

Later in the skit, Samberg entered the room and told her President Biden was there to see her.

Biden, played by Dana Carvey, came in and said, “You’ve been watching this guy, come on, Walz!” What’s wrong with this guy? He’s crazy, get the facts straight, Jack!”

Gaffigan and Yang detailed several key moments of the actual debate between Walz and Vance, including the question of whether Walz was in Tiananmen Square and Vance denouncing the debate moderators for attempting to fact-check him.

“Honey, we did it, we got the soundbite!” Samberg said, mocking Vance’s response to a question during the debate about whether former President Trump won in 2020. “What do the pollsters say?”

“That’s a huge victory, it made no difference!” Rudolf replied.
