Saturday Night Live came out of the gate swinging at President Donald Trump after another tumultuous week for the U.S. economy, poking fun at the chaos with a segment featuring host Jon Hamm as a very disillusioned cable news personality trying to make sense of the mess.

His co-host, played by SNL cast member Ego Nwodim, chimes in: “I’m sure it means something to someone, but it sounds like a bunch of gibberish to me. Let’s take a look at box mac and cheese, which is up 4.5% to $1.59.”
