Pete Davidson Calls Kanye West For "SNL" Rant Controversy

Pete Davidson wants "Make Kanye 2006 Again".

The 24-year-old comedian made an appearance during Saturday Night Liveof Weekend update to answer Pro-Trump's controversial comments that Kanye West aired off during the episode last week – which has made many cast members uncomfortable.

"Speaking strictly for myself, what Kanye said after we left the airwaves last week was one of the worst clumsy things I've ever seen here." I saw Chevy Chase speak to a trainee, "he joked. "We all had to stay behind him, and here's what it looked like."

We see Davidson with his head down. "I'm here on the left and I say, 'Oh, my god,'" he said. "And then, I say to myself," I want a career. "So I'm leaving," as he's seen coming out of the scene.

"So, Kanye was wearing a MAGA hat … and he started by saying that people behind the scenes were trying to make him understand not to wear it," said Davidson. "He wore it all week." As, no one told him not to wear it.I would have liked to intimidate.I would have liked to suggest that it might upset some people like your wife or all blacks. "

Davidson went on to share some of the things West complained about. "Then Kanye said that the Democrats had dissociated black families with welfare, and that slavery was not real.Do you know how wrong you should be in politics, as I must notice, do you know how annoying it is? "

He then added, "Kanye is a genius, but similar to a musical genius.As Joey Chestnut, he's a genius of hot-dog consumption.I do not want to hear Joey Chestnut's opinion. on things that are not related to hot dogs. "

When Colin Jost asked Davidson how West could regain his affection, the comedian pulled out a red hat on which it was written: "Make Kanye 2006 Again".

A source told ET earlier this week that Kim and Kourtney Kardashian, along with their children, were all present at West's speech. The source also noted that Kim had just watched her husband and that she did not seem disconcerted by his words, even as he was receiving audible cries from the crowd.

The source also added that nobody at SNL told him not to wear the red cap. In fact, the rapper wore the cap during the show specials with host Adam Driver and actor Kenan Thompson. The source added that West was mostly friendly with the crew and loved people behind the scenes, even hugging some of the crew.
