Matt Damon perfectly captured the rage, self-aggrandizement, and self-pity of Brett Kavanaugh on the season premiere of @nbcsnl

[appalachiablue]

39. TY, he's correct. Good man, PB.

[John1956PA]

50. Matt Damon gave the best impression of a contemporary newsmaker I have ever seen.

I have viewed SNL since it came on in 1975. Over the years, I have enjoyed watching SNL greats doing political impressions. However, I think Matt Damon's performance tonight tops the list.

[appalachiablue]

61. Matt & all were first rate, the best!

[Cha]

77. Retweeted! Mahalo, highplainsdem!

52. Thank You!

[calimary]

73. Wicked!!!

That’s YOU, Frat Brat. You’re a punchline now. Your name is Joke.

And you can’t wait to turn the entire Supreme Court into one.

[CanSocDem]

83. Thanks for the link.

For some profit-oriented reason, Canadians can't download SNL clips from Youtube. And I can't stay up late enough to watch it on TV.

.

[George II]

53. I've been watching SNL for 40 years, that may have been the BEST opening ever!

[spooky3]

56. :-)

[BadgerMom]

54. "I don't know the meaning of 'stop.'"

And “I’m a keg-half-full kinda guy.”

55. Daily Beast: Matt Damon Absolutely Nails Brett Kavanaugh in SNL Season Premiere

[unitedwethrive]

58. The sad thing is that it wasn't that far from the actual hearing...

and repubs still support the guy.

[SunSeeker]

80. Exactly. Like their Sarah Palin opener, they used real quotes.

You can't make this shit up.

[winstars]

60. Amazing!!!!

[Hoyt]

64. Opening was great. Didn't watch rest because SNL hasn't been as funny past few decades.

Maybe I need to give it another try. I laughed hard throughout opening bit.

[malaise]

84. I usually watch the opening and Weekend Update

Both were great. The RBG response was fall down funny.

[Hoyt]

89. Will check those parts out. Lots of good new material out there with trump and GOPers.

[WhiskeyWulf]

67. Brilliant! Dying LOLing. nt

[Takket]

68. Kanye is wearing the fucking hat

[Totally Tunsie]

69. MAGAT West sucks.

He actually gets paid for that act?

[DesertRat]

71. "You really can just call me straight up prosecutor"

[Ijustgot_here]

74. I lol'd

[murielm99]

75. I'll bet Kavanaugh watched it,

though he would deny watching it under oath.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

78. "Handsy Hank...... Gang Bang Greg??" Holy shit!! nt

[uponit7771]

87. LOFL

[Hortensis]

82. Matt Damon was fantastic, though even his skill doesn't

make his face look like angry mashed potatoes.

I'm a little disappointed they didn't use my favorite lines, though, where Kavanaugh rages at us with, “You sowed the wind. For decades to come, I fear the whole country will reap the whirlwind.” For the sin of keeping him off the court.

People writing about this say he was speaking about the Democrats he was accusing of corrupting the process before, but I suspect his fury was far more widely directed at that point. He wants the whole country to suffer badly for rejecting him.

[Achilleaze]

86. Your point is well taken, Hortensis

He's not just running on anger, but also what he imagines is justifiable VENGEANCE against America for exposing who he really is. So republican. So sad.

[Hortensis]

88. Exactly and very well stated. Vengeance.

He gave us quite a look at the real man.
