This week’s episode of Saturday Night Live opened with a sketch that spoofed Washington’s efforts to tackle gun control.
With SNL cast members Bill Hader and Jason Sudeikis playing the roles of Sens. Pat Toomey (R-PA) and Joe Manchin (D-WV) respectively, the cold open provided a satirical look at just how much the lawmakers compromised in order to produce a deal on background checks for gun purchases.
