SNL Recasts Forrest Gump With Jeff Sessions to Bring Some Southern Simplicity to America's Foremost Racist

That nightmare who escaped your dreams and was confirmed as United States attorney general, Jeff Sessions, had a rough week. How else would you describe getting caught lying under oath about meeting with Russians? I would describe it as perjury.  

Bad.

So it was nice of Saturday Night Live to bring some southern gentility to the scandal. Here, they put Jeff Sessions in the role of Forrest Gump, a man who proves anything is possible if you're a white man. I guess this would be charming, if you weren't so dang fishy.
