Them Trumps

The Trump family is reimagined as an African-American family, featuring Kenan Thompson as Donald Trump parody Darius Trump, Leslie Jones as Melania Trump parody Malika Trump, Chris Redd as Donald Trump Jr. parody Darius Trump Jr, and Ego Nwodim as Ivanka Trump parody L'evanka Trump. The sketches typically aired during weeks where the real Donald Trump had come seemingly close to impeachment, and the joke would come when Darius Trump would attempt to reassure his family that as the President of the United States, people would have to treat him fairly, even though he was a black man. Upon saying this, he would usually be impeached, booed, or even arrested.

Name Change Office

Summarize
Perspective

A correspondent (Mikey Day) for Action 9 News at Five (which is itself a recurring sketch) covers a disaster that happened at the city's name change office. The reporter interviews people who were intending to change their embarrassing names but couldn't due to the disaster. The interviewed victims' names are usually played for comic effect, usually resembling an inappropriate, sexual term (such as Mike Rodick, for "microdick") or the name of a well-known criminal (for example, Jeffrey Epstein). Pete Davidson also plays an essential worker that laughs at the names at a press conference (usually held by the host).
