Chaos at the White House

Saturday Night Live's cold open skecth

Saturday Night joked about the turmoil at the White House in its 'cold open' sketch last night.

Alex Moffat played CNN anchor Anderson Cooper in the skit, interviewing Jeff Sessions (Kate McKinnon).

John Goodman reprises his role as Rex Tillerson, barely containinh his anger about how he was fired as Secretary of State, saying: 'It's just crazy how one day you're the CEO of Exxon, a $50 billion company, and the next day you get fired by a man who used to sell steaks in the mail.'

Fred Armisen played Fire and Fury author Michael Wolff and Bill Hader was short-lived White House spokesman Anthony Scaramucci in the sketch.
