Mayor Pete Buttigieg responded to Colin Jost's impression of him on 'Saturday Night Live' during Monday's episode of 'The Tonight Show.'
Transcript
00:00I don't know if you saw, they did an impression of you, but they're not on this week.
00:04But yeah, you didn't see it? You didn't see it at all?
00:07No.
00:07Mayor Pete Buttigieg is finally responding to Colin Jost's impression of him on
00:11Saturday Night Live. The Democratic presidential candidate appeared on The
00:15Tonight Show when host Jimmy Fallon asked the South Bend, Indiana mayor if he had
00:19gotten a chance to see the SNL member spoof of him. Buttigieg claimed he didn't,
00:23but it looks like the mayor's got some jokes himself considering he held up his
00:26arms during the entire exchange, hilariously mocking Jost's stiff-armed impression of him.
00:31Yeah, I'm very comfortable in my own body, I know exactly what to do with my arms,
00:36I don't know...
00:37But now you're overthinking what to do with your arms now?
00:39Yeah, now I'm wondering...
00:40No.
00:41Too far out.
00:42But it was all in good fun, and after playing a clip of Jost's impression, the politician
00:46laughed it off and admitted that the impression was actually okay. Funnily enough, Buttigieg
00:51and Fallon were later joined in the episode by Scarlett Johansson, who also happens to be
00:55engaged to Colin Jost for a game of true confessions. During the game, where each player
00:59would read a fact about themselves and other players try and figure out if the fact is
01:02true or false, Buttigieg revealed that he once ate an ice cream sundae made entirely
01:07out of pork while on the campaign trail. So the story turned out to be true, but
01:11Johansson did have a hard time figuring it out, noting,
01:14He's a politician. I can't tell.
