The MAGA world was left fuming after Saturday Night Live made a mockery of Donald Trump for not being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. 

Colin Jost kicked off the show’s Weekend Update by speaking about the ceasefire in Gaza that was brokered by the president on Friday, before moving on to Trump being snubbed for the prize. 

‘Well, it is nice to start the update with some good news for once. There is peace in the Middle East. Uh, the only downside is there is war in Chicago,’ Jost said, referring to Trump’s recent deployment of the National Guard in the Windy City in a bid to crack down on illegal immigration. 

‘Only Trump can Freaky Friday Chicago and Gaza,’ Jost said before saying Trump is ‘upset’ he didn’t win the honorable award. 

Trump has been very vocal about wanting the Nobel Committee to award him with the honor, but after it was announced Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Carina Machado got it, he and the Republican party were left outraged. 

‘I know Trump is upset that he didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize, but the last guy to send heavily armed men into an American city was Bane from Batman,’ Cost said. 

The comedian chuckled before adding: ‘Bane, who was also snubbed for the peace prize.’ 

Trump supporters were left enraged by the skit comedy’s comments on his controversial snub, as one said the network should be ashamed. 

MAGA fans blasted SNL for mocking President Donald Trump over not winning the Nobel Peace Prize this past week. Weekend Updates host Colin Jost credited Trump for brokering a peace deal in Gaza, but went on to mention him bringing 'heavily armed men' to Chicago, Illinois

Many people took to social media to condemn SNL’s comments on the topic, with one stating: ‘Shame on your network’ 

‘@nbc Making fun in your SNL show over Venezuela crisis and our leader María Corina Machado that has been awarded with [the] Novel [sic] peace prize, just to mock on President Trump is disrespectful. Shame on your network….,’ they wrote on X. 

Another said: ‘SNL has serious Trump Derangement Syndrome.’ 

‘Trying to mock Trump every 5 seconds gets real old. It’s also not funny anymore,’ someone else posted. 

A user suggested the show’s skits are not at all comical. 

‘Are SNL writers on strike? Who [sic] writing these lousy skits?,’ they asked. 

Someone else chimed in: ‘Can these guys roll off into the sunset already!’ 

Jost did give the commander-in-chief credit for leading the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas, but the praise only went so far.

‘Trump deserves credit, I have to say, for brokering the ceasefire in Gaza, but I’m slightly skeptical since Biden also negotiated a ceasefire in Gaza nine months ago,’ he stated. 

Former President Joe Biden’s administration helped broker a ceasefire deal in Gaza in January, but it fell apart in March. 

The new deal was finalized by Trump’s administration, with a temporary truce beginning on Friday. 

The remaining 48 Israeli hostages are set to be released on Monday following a 72-hour deadline, but on Sunday morning Vice President JD Vance said they could be released ‘any moment now.’ 

Israel believes 20 hostages are alive. Approximately 2,000 Palestinian prisoners and detainees will also be freed in Israel. 

Jost’s credit for Biden was also short lived as he went on to take a jab at his mental wellbeing. 

Still talking about the initial ceasefire, he said: ‘Remember that? No? Well, neither does Biden.’ 

He went on to speak of Machado, 58, who he noted was called a ‘deranged Hispanic’ by Fox News. 

Machado was lauded for being a ‘key, unifying figure in a political opposition that was once deeply divided – an opposition that found common ground in the demand for free elections and representative government,’ Jorgen Watne Frydnes, the chair of the Norwegian Nobel Committee in Oslo, said. 

‘In the past year, Miss Machado has been forced to live in hiding. Despite serious threats against her life, she has remained in the country, a choice that has inspired millions.

‘When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognize courageous defenders of freedom who rise and resist,’ he said.

President Nicolás Maduro’s government routinely targeted its real or perceived opponents ahead of last year’s presidential election.

Machado was set to run against Maduro, but the government disqualified her. Edmundo González took her place. He had never run for office before. 

After she won, Trump called Machado to congratulate her after she dedicated the prize to the US President and her country’s pro-democracy movement.

Trump called Machado, White House sources told Bloomberg, without revealing further details of the conversation.

Trump’s magnanimous reaction followed the Venezuelan politician’s thanks for his ‘decisive support’ for her country’s pro-democracy movement.

‘I dedicate this prize to the suffering people of Venezuela and to President Trump,’ she wrote on X.

‘We are on the threshold of victory and today, more than ever, we count on President Trump, the people of the United States, the peoples of Latin America, and the democratic nations of the world as our principal allies to achieve Freedom and democracy,’ she added.
