Last night's SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE had a lot to discuss given the current political situation. One topic they tackled was the campaign of Beto O'Rourke, who young people are starting to rally behind.

The sketch shows a rally of young people getting hyped, seemingly for O'Rourke, when none other than Ted Cruz appears.

Watch the clip below!

Saturday Night Live (SNL) is an American late-night live television variety show created by Lorne Michaels and developed by Dick Ebersol. The show premiered on NBCon October 11, 1975, under the original title NBC's Saturday Night. The show's comedy sketches, which parody contemporary culture and politics, are performed by a large and varying cast of repertory and newer cast members. Each episode is hosted by a celebrity guest, who usually delivers an opening monologue and performs in sketches with the cast as with featured performances by a musical guest. An episode normally begins with a cold open sketch that ends with someone breaking character and proclaiming, "Live from New York, it's Saturday Night!", properly beginning the show.
