Presidential candidate Kamala Harris made a surprise appearance on Saturday Night Live alongside comedian Maya Rudolph, whose impression of her has become iconic.
Harris joined the comedian for the opening sequence of the show on Saturday, Nov. 2 to do a cute skit riffing on the uncanny resemblance between the two. The sitting Vice President also got a few jabs in on her opposing candidate, Donald Trump.
“I’m just here to remind you, you got this,” Harris said. “Because you can do something your opponent cannot do: You can open doors.”
Oop. And that’s on the garbage truck.
The pep talk between the two continued with more riffs on Harris’ first name.
“Take my palm-ala,” Rudolph said. “The American people want to stop the chaos.”
Harris continued,
“And end the dram-ala.”
Harris has had positive words for Rudolph’s portrayal of her throughout this election season. When the Vice President appeared on an episode of The View, she commended the comedian for her accuracy.
“Maya Rudolph — I mean, she’s so good,” Harris said. “She had the whole thing, the suit, the jewelry, everything!”
Still, during her appearance on SNL, she questioned whether Rudolph was overemphasizing her signature chuckle.
“I don’t really laugh like that, do I?,” she said.
To which Rudolph responded,
“A little bit.”

Harris’ appearance was met with a roaring applause from the live studio audience of SNL as well as adoring commentary on social media. The presidential hopeful is on the last leg of her road to the White House as Election Day looms over the country.
With the future of our democracy in the hands of American voters, Harris has been targeting battleground states like North Carolina in her final days of campaigning. She’s brought out the heavy hitters of celebrity endorsements including Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, Cardi B, Victoria Monet as well as former President and First Lady Barack and Michelle Obama.
With just two days before election day, many are hoping that Harris—who has run a flawless campaign since President Joe Biden made the decision to drop out of the race in July—has what it takes to save the country from another Donald Trump presidency.
