Sacha Baron Cohen resurrected his infamous characters Borat and Ali G during a visit to “The Tonight Show,” in which he imagined what they might say to Donald Trump and Kamala Harris amid the race for president. Ali G is predictably a big admirer of Trump, which allowed Baron Cohen to call out the Republican nominee’s worst behavior.
“Yo, Mr. Trump. You is being convicted of 32 crimes, you stole classified documents, you boned enough porn stars and you ain’t never paid no taxes. Respect! You my hero,” Baron Cohen as Ali G said as “The Tonight Show” studio audience laughed.
Reviving Borat also gave Baron Cohen the chance to mock Trump’s infamous claim during the presidential debate that Haitian immigrants in Ohio are eating dogs and other pets.
“Mr. Trump. You say in Ohio that people no eat the cats and the dogs. Which restaurant do they serve them at? Can I get a reservation please?” Borat said. “In my country we have KFC: Kazakh Fried Cat. It’s pussy licking good.”
Baron Cohan earned the biggest laughs by pointing Borat in the direction of Harris and saying: “You are a woman, a person of color and married to a Jew. I advise you not to come to Kazakstan. You already have made three of the four crimes punishable by death. Please do tell me you have made sexy time with an underage bear.
“Mr. Trump, that remind me of your visit five years ago to the bear pageant,” Borat added in a nod to another Trump scandal. “We paid the hush money to gather the grizzly. Problem solved. Thank you for your nuclear secrets in return. You scratch my back, I scratch your crumb.”
Baron Cohen has long trolled Trump in public. The two engaged in a war of words during the 2020 opening of “Borat 2” in which Trump slammed Baron Cohen as “a creep” and “a phony.”
Baron Cohen fired back at Trump at the time by writing on social media: “Donald — I appreciate the free publicity for ‘Borat!’ I admit, I don’t find you funny either. But yet the whole world laughs at you. I’m always looking for people to play racist buffoons.”
