In the season finale of “Saturday Night Live,” Alec Baldwin as President Trump sang “Hallelujah” in an homage to the season’s opening, when Kate McKinnon as Hillary Clinton did the same thing. Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson hosted the episode, and suggested that he might have a chance of becoming the next leader of this country. “In the past, I never would have considered running for president. I didn’t think I was qualified at all. But now, I’m actually worried that I’m too qualified,” he said. Then he invited Tom Hanks to the stage, another celebrity who has been jokingly floated as a 2020 contender. “America needs us,” said Hanks. “Together, we would get 100 percent of the vote,” he added. “I would get the senior vote because I fought in World War II in, like, 10 different movies.” Check out the clip below:
