SNL recycled a Trump sketch for Kamala Harris and fans are not happy

Kamala Harris shocked everyone when she appeared on the November 2 episode of Saturday Night Live. Lorne Michaels had previously stated that no politicians would be appearing on the show during season 50, but he seemingly changed his mind.
Harris appeared alongside the comedian who has been impersonating her, Maya Rudolph, during the episode's cold open. The skit consisted of Rudolph looking in the mirror and giving herself a pep talk, and the real Harris was on the other side, serving as her reflection.
