Shane Gillis Stand-Up Monologue – SNL
Saturday Night Live apparently almost had a new Donald Trump impersonator for its 50th season.
Shane Gillis claimed over the weekend that he was asked to play the former president for the entirety of Season 50, but turned down the invitation.
At Skankfest, a comedy festival in Las Vegas, it was announced that Gillis, who parodied Trump as host of SNL last season, had been asked by Lorne Michaels to do it again.
