Happy to see James Austin Johnson joining SNL, no doubt entirely thanks to this piece I wrote on why his Trump impersonation is the only one that mattershttps://slate.com/culture/2020/10/james-austin-johnson-best-trump-impression-in-history.html\u00a0\u2026

I went to college with James Austin Johnson (he just went by Austin back then). We took improv together and he told me I was funny once, which I remember because he was a "cool guy." He's always been hilarious. This makes a million different kinds of sense. Can't wait to watch.https://twitter.com/nbcsnl/status/1442519716623372288\u00a0\u2026

I didn't recognize the name James Austin Johnson when he was announced as a new SNL cast member but then I remembered he's the guy that does the insanely good Trump impression, AND then I learned he had a bit part in Better Call Saul. This man is on firehttps://twitter.com/shrimpJAJ/status/1324036720870985729\u00a0\u2026
