He continued, “When Hillary Clinton lost – understandable. She wasn’t exactly the most likable person in the room. And then when Kate McKinnon went out there on ‘Saturday Night Live’ at the cold opening and all that, and she started dressing like Hillary Clinton, and she started In playing “Hallelujah.” I literally prayed, “Please teaser at the end.”
