Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton

Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton dropped in at the late night comedy show “Saturday Night Live” on Saturday, appearing in a sketch alongside comedian Kate McKinnon, who played the former United States senator and secretary of state.

The Democratic presidential candidate also took shots at Republican contender Donald Trump, deepening her voice in imitation of one of his pointed pronouncements.

McKinnon also told Clinton she was “really easy to talk to,” to which Clinton replied “That’s the first time I’ve ever heard that,” taking a shot at her frosty reputation.

The pair was joined by cast member Darrell Hammond, the show’s current interpreter of former President Bill Clinton, who entered exclaimed “They’re multiplying!” upon seeing Hillary Clinton and the comic playing her.

Hillary Clinton returned later in the broadcast, the premiere of the long-running show’s new season, to introduce musical guest Miley Cyrus. Clinton’s appearance recalled the visit Sarah Palin paid to the sketch show during her 2008 vice presidential campaign, when she ran as John McCain’s running mate. During that show, Palin appeared alongside Tiny Fey, whose uncanny Palin portrayal became a pop culture touchstone.
