"Saturday Night Live" began its season finale by mocking the prospect of the Qatari royal family gifting a luxury jet to serve as Air Force One.
As his trip to the Middle East wrapped up on Saturday, Donald Trump used Truth Social to rail against ABC News for raising questions about his desire to accept a luxury $400 million plane from the Qatari government, as the replacement plane has been delayed.
In the SNL cold open, the show's Trump impersonator, James Austin Johnson, discussed his trip with Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, played by Emil Wakim.
Johnson's Trump said that, while he participated in the trip "for the American people," he said: "I did very well on this trip. I got a lot of cool stuff."
"The Qataris gave me a $400 million plane, can you believe that? And people said that it was some sort of a bribe. Not true, not true. Because they haven't asked for anything in return."
"Well, not yet," Wakim's Prince Salman interjected.
Johnson's Trump responded: "So it's a pre-bribe. But now people are saying I should really be flying in an American plane. Ah, no thanks. Have you seen what is going on with our planes?"
He continued: "Since it's a finale, after tonight that means you won't be seeing me here for a while. Well, not the fake, fun version of me that makes you smile."
He added: "The real one will still be omnipresent. You can't escape me, right? I'm everywhere, even in your dreams, like the late, great Freddy Krueger."
In his Truth Social post, the real president insisted that the plane wouldn't be a gift to him, but to the Pentagon.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Of course they did . . .
And nobody watched.
The FCC needs to investigate this show. It’s completely one-sided.
Free political advertising to the Democratic Party.
Is that insult to humor still on?
SNL stopped being funny - and relevant - in the early 80s after the main cast left.
I wasn’t aware that anyone watched the show.
If SNL puts on a skit and NO ONE WATCHES, is it still NOT funny? *SMIRK*
Bring back the days of ‘Bass-O-Matic’ infomercials and, ‘The Ambiguously Gay Duo’ cartoons! Father Guido Sarduchi! Irwin Mainway and his kids’ toys; especially, ‘Bag of Jagged Glass’ and ‘Switchblade Teddy Bear!’
Also, the skit with Christopher Walken asking for MORE COWBELL!
SNL could not find anything funny about Biden, big surprise.
Why is that crap still on , I’ve never watched it
I’m sure the Boeing employees and contractors are laughing their heads off - NOT.
How f’ing stupid are the clowns on the Left? Over the years, we have given TRILLIONS of dollars to other countries, to say nothing of American lives, defending others around the world and, when someone tries to give us something, you get asshats like those on SNL making a mockery of it. Also, the plane was offered to Trump as President and Trump has already stated it would not be his to keep.
I say we take the plane, say Thank You, and look around to see if anyone else in the world appreciates what the US has done for them in the last century.
When’s the last time you saw ANYONE from the GOP on a late night TV show?
Because we all loved Biden.
This was a deal to replace aging equipment initiated by Biden administration
Someone else can 'enoy; Saturday Night Lies.
When are the obnoxious ignoramuses who stay up all night drunk and high on drugs going to get tired of laughing at the same old ignorant crap spewed by the maggots at SNL? Those idiots need to grow up. No wonder they don’t want to pay their student loan bills.
Maybe this will finally get the leftists to stop supporting Muslims as they have since 9/11…
Let’s see ‘Saturday Night Live’ do a skit on how much tax dollars they and their NBC bosses have gotten over decades.
Why didn’t SNL poke fun at how foreign governments canceled scheduled donations to “The Clinton Foundation” immediately after it became clear Hillary lost her presidential run?
Did they ever joke about how Hunter Biden’s paintings no longer sell for $500,000+?
