America's favorite meth-making high school teacher, Walter White (Bryan Cranston), appeared on SNL's cold open with Jake Tapper (Beck Bennett) and Kellyanne Conway (Kate McKinnon) last night to announce his return to the land of the living for the most unlikely-well, in this current political climate, perhaps not the most unlikely-of reasons: Donald Trump has nominated him to be the head of the national Drug Enforcement Administration. According to White, he and Trump 'Agree: it's time to 'Make America Cook Again.' [They] wanna fill this nation with red, white, and a whole lotta blue.' When discussing resistance he might face to his appointment considering his lack of political experience, White acquiesced that Congress 'might get hung up on the fact that [he] faked his own death; [he's] only the third person in the Trump cabinet to do that.'
