Over the summer, the fine folks at The Late Show with Stephen Colbert decided to ring up their pal, actress Laura Benanti, to play Melania Trump in a sketch about her speech at the Republican National Convention.
Thankfully, they’ve done it again.
Benanti returned to the late night show last night “via satellite” as Melania to explain her recent interviews, locker room talk, and why the thought of her husband on a bus is “disgusting.”
One of the biggest laughs of the segment came when she explained that locker room talk is simply, “When American men gather to sport, they always brag of grabbing women by the Billy Bush.” She went on to give more of her thoughts on men, explaining that, “No matter how nice they seem, secretly they’re all foul-mouthed, Billy-Bush-grabbing pigs.” Oh, and this applies to husbands, brothers, and even Luke Skywalker. Damn! She’s bringing Star Wars into the election now?
Melania goes on to explain that men are “All animals. If only a woman could be president.” You can guess how well that goes over for her. Benanti’s impression is spot-on and continues to provide some of the best comedic moments of this election. Something tells us we’ll be seeing her again before Election Day…
