If anyone was going to lampoon the undecided voter conversation in America , it was going to be Tina Fey , born in a Philadelphia suburban area , where – and I can say this because I ’m also Philly - bear – locals crank up the political critique to 11 during election season . She ’s alsoSaturday Night Live’ssecret satirical weapon – really , Fey ’s Sarah Palinchanged history . gratefully , SNLrecruited her for just that this weekend .
Fey and her old " Weekend Update " co - boniface Jimmy Fallon take back to the show this weekend to skid into the shoes of two Philly char who were all too cognisant of their swing state position . Some insight : Philadelphians have a reputation for being dead - fused and stuck in their fashion , and if you ’ve pass serious time in the city and skirt pockets of Pennsylvania , you have a go at it it ’s well - earn . We do n’t spend all daylight debating cheesesteak preferences , but we do believe " Philadelphia " is a political party that everyone in the world is against . Go , Eagles .
The sketch was as reasonable and balanced as only two skeptical Philadelphians could be . Unlike likethe raucous Trump - bashing inhuman open , the duo take on the major nominee in the wash , and had some inviolable words for Hillary :

" Hillary ’s husband cheated on her , and I do n’t like the way she handled it , " Fey enounce as " Denise McDonough , " in a rarified well - tuned display of the Philly accent . What was Denise ’s problem ? " I do n’t wish that she did n’t finish the occupation . A missy ’s been slam your married man for 12 years , at the very least you have to cut off her ponytail . "
" Denise " and Fallon ’s " Doreen Troilo " pettifog over the possibility of Trump . " He look like someone opened a quesadilla to pick the volaille out , " said Fey , conflagrate by Trump ’s perpetual remarks on the female body . Then Fey slipped in a meta - gibe at Fallon , who recently make a beatingfor giving Trump a passing onThe Tonight Show . The comic , on-key to form , broke character to send a silent excuse .
Watch the rest of the resume above , and if you ’re a on the fence Philadelphian elector , please , go vote .
