Say it with us

Highly quotable.

Because it's Christmas

Just vote for literally anyone else

The premise

Here’s the bit.

Parodying the cue-card scene from Love Actually, the sketch has Hillary Clinton knock on the door of a presidential elector while the elector's husband lounges in the living room. Without speaking, she flips through hand-lettered cards that recount her career, admit she lost the election, and plead with the elector to cast a vote for literally anyone else. The elector listens with growing amusement, and the final card warns what happens if Donald Trump becomes president.

A little extra

Notes from the archive.

The sketch aired on December 17, 2016, two days before the Electoral College met on December 19.

The rabbit hole continues

One more couldn’t hurt.
