“And when I’m the Government… We gonna see.” 😂😂

[indestarbright]

It's funny 'til you remember that Herschel Walker and Senator Warnock are neck and neck. And Georgians previously chose Marjorie Taylor Greene as one of their U.S. congressional representatives.

[Vincent-foxp]

I love how Keenan's impressions are basically just his own voice lol

"Everybody loves football baseball"
-Herschel Burschel😆

[quintas]

They went with two actual quotes because sometimes comedy just writes itself.

[KitTaylorOfficial]

And an out-of-the-blue amazing Mitch McConnell impression. Damn. Hope he's back.

“We need to bring Hawaii closer.” Hilarious

[sandraa]

As someone who lives in Georgia, this is literally what you hear in the ads😂

[monicawright]

I laughed at this until I cried and almost pee’d my pants!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 At one point I thought he called Mitch “Bitch McDonalds” I was disappointed that he actually didn't. Keenan is a national treasure!

[justsaying]

As a Georgia resident you got to laugh to keep from crying. This was funny and sad at the same time, because GA may vote someone like him in.

This was the highlight of the whole show, and of course, it was Keenan. Scary thing is he even dumbed down, he sounds 100x more intelligent than Walker does.

[richinoable]

Keenan is the only dude who could fill those shoes. He's the veteran for so many reasons, all on display here. Timing, non-sequitors, awkward hand acting, unfailing gaze and flawless comic delivery. I'm gonna watch it some more...

[pagielicious]

Great skit. Keenan made me laugh til tears ran down my face. So glad he's still on SNL.

[nonprogrediestregredi]

I know it's satire but this is still a more intelligent dialogue than Walker normally has.

[theduckfromthejoke]

Oh my God kenan is a genius the way he just adds subtle parts of words to other words that make different words.. like when I'm the Governor-ment he does that through the whole thing I can't even keep up and I know he didn't completely say Governor but that's just the best way I can explain what he does

[Javier_Jimenez]

Was trying not to laugh but Benjamin Frankenstein got me 😂

[missmusick]

“When I’m the government, we gon’ see!” 😂😂😂 I don’t know why that line cracks me up, but it just does!😂😂😂😂

[peryole]

The saddest part is that this skit makes more sense than anything Walker has EVER SAID.

[iSupermanCKi]

Just finished rewatching Kenan & Kel for the first time since I was 10. Kenan was born to make people laugh. RIP Coolio.

[rhymeswiththirsty]

Been a minute since I laughed so hard at SNL! Kenan knocking it out of the park 😂
