SNL Video: Mike Myers’ Chainsaw-Wielding Elon Musk Interrupts Trump’s Meeting With Zelenskyy
Saturday Night Live took aim this week at President Donald Trump’s combative meeting with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy — with an assist from an all-time SNL great.
In Saturday’s cold open, James Austin Johnson’s Trump and Bowen Yang’s JD Vance battled with Mikey Day’s Zelenskyy, chiding him for not being grateful for U.S. aid. (“You didn’t say anything about us being handsome!” Vance complained.) Trump claimed to hold all the cards in this situation — even “Pikachu and Charmander and Charizard” — and told Zelenskyy it was disrespectful of him to come to the White House dressed in a T-shirt and jeans “like a garbage person.”

Right on cue, Elon Musk barged in wearing a T-shirt and jeans — and played by SNL alum Mike Myers. Musk brandished a chainsaw and hopped around hyperactively before asking Trump: “What are you doing in my office? You know I’m the President now, right?” He’s just kidding! But “maybe not”! Trump praised him for his DOGE department’s mass firings of government workers, including air traffic controllers: “Sure, some of the planes are gonna land upside down. But then the luggage falls right into your lap, and you’re ready to go. It’s efficient!”
Musk then introduced a 19-year-old DOGE employee known as “Big Balls” who loves his new job: “This week, I fired a Black general and a woman admiral! It was awesome!” His next initiative is the Department of Undoing Child Healthcare and Education… or DOUCHE.
