During the sketch, Johnson’s Trump told Day’s Zelensky, “You’re not even wearing a suit. It’s disrespectful — who shows up to the White House in a T-shirt and jeans like a garbage person?”

Myers then appeared as Musk, dressed in jeans, a black coat and a “Tech Support” printed T-shirt while holding up a chainsaw. “Hi guys,” Myers said while stuttering, before Johnson responded, “Elon, we love your outfit. Very official and respectful.”

“Thanks, Donald,” Myers then replied as Musk, adding: ”What are you doing in my office? You know I’m the president now, right? I’m kidding, I’m kidding. Maybe not.”

“Oh, you know you’ve got to make a joke,” continued Myers, then jumping in the air shouting, “Legalize comedy” — the same phrase Musk used whilespeaking at the Conservative Political Action Conferencein February.

Myers' Musk and Johnson’s Trump then spoke about recent government layoffs, poking fun at how the CEO is currently the head of Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

“They’re saying I’m firing people with no cause. But I do have cause — it’s ‘cause’ I feel like it," Myers exclaimed.

“They’re doing mass firings in the government. We love mass firings," Johnson added, as Myers responded that they are “firing the non-essential employees, like air traffic controllers.”
