Jeanine Pirro soaks 'SNL' Weekend Update host Colin Jost over Trump comments
Watch Next

Cecily Strong channeled Fox News personality Jeanine Pirro on Saturday Night Live's Weekend Update and soaked Colin Jost in the process.

Strong had a hilarious, on-the-nose performance as Pirro making racist comments, raging about the "loony left," defending Donald Trump from all sides, and referring to Michael Che as "Kenan." One of the most fun bits is her insistence on spitting and throwing martinis in Jost's face any time he brought up some negative development about Trump.

Strong nailed Pirro's intense volume and energy.
