Dana Carvey did leave his impressions at home when he went on Real Time With Bill Maher Friday night.
When Carvey sat down with Bill Maher, he did his impressions of President Donald Trump and Elon Musk. However, he noted how he’s still “working on” nailing his Musk one.
“So, Trump’s there, and he’s got the tie, and then Elon is up there talking, right? And I don’t really do it yet, but I’m working on it,” the Saturday Night Live alum said, referencing when Musk called out his impression on the sketch comedy show in November.
“We got to go to Mars, because we can’t sustain life on planet Earth. We gotta go to Mars, it’s just gonna be really cool, he continued in his Musk mumbled voice.
Carvey then shifted to his Trump voice, responding to what he thinks he’d say, “What he said. He’s a smart cookie, he’s a tough cookie, he’s a Cookie Monster. This one, he’s smart. Everybody talks about it. He’s like Chips Ahoy. Excuse me. Everybody knows it.”
Carvey debuted his impression of Musk on SNL‘s first post-election episode on Nov. 9. The cold open was a sarcastic attempt to get on Trump’s good side.
Musk took to X (formerly Twitter) to share his thoughts on the comedian’s impression, “Dana Carvey just sounds like Dana Carvey.”
“SNL has been dying slowly for years, as they become increasingly out of touch with reality,” He also wrote in response to a post on X. “Their last-ditch effort to cheat the equal airtime requirements and prop up Kamala before the election only helped sink her campaign further. @nbcsnl.”
The Wayne’s World star’s earned laughs from Maher who just recently said he plans to visit the White House to meet with Trump.
On the upcoming episode of Maher’s podcast Club Random, dropping on Sunday, Maher told Andrew Schulz he wasn’t going to miss going to the White House, with apparently his new friend Kid Rock.
“I’m not playing this game that you mean girls play, where they’re like ‘Oh, you know what? You can’t sit at my lunch table because I’m just not talking to you,” he continued. “Not talking to you? You lost the election. Who the fuck do you think you have to talk to? It’s one thing if you win it, it’s another thing if you lose it.”
He added, “Kid Rock was here a couple of weeks ago, and he said, ‘I want you to meet Trump.’ He said, ‘I’m going to take you to the White House.’ So now we’re going.”
