Every day for the past week-plus, we as a collective people have been subjected to take after take of heightened and wholly unnecessary outrage over Timmy's resurfaced comments. Let's face it: If you're a normal person, you are most likely sick of this discourse at this point. What even more is there left to say?

It seems like even the live, in-studio audience at SNL would like to change the subject. Want some proof? Here's the cold open from the most recent episode, which featured Harry Styles as the host and musical guest.
The sketch didn't feature Harry, but it did feature James Austin Johnson doing his time-tested Trump impression while riffing on gas prices — and, of course, a host of other subjects — in front of a family experiencing pain at the pump.

At one point, "Trump" started riffing on the war with Iran that's currently being waged — and, wouldn't you know it, the SNL writing staff managed to sneak in a reference to Timmy's comments.

"We will win this war because Iran is old and nobody likes 'em," he said. "Iran is like ballet and opera, and we're Timmy Chalamet."

At the mere mention of "opera and ballet," the audience seemed to know what was coming, as they groaned loudly. "Kickin' 'em while they're down," JAJ-as-Trump quipped, presumably referencing what Timothée was doing with his initial comments.

Now, listen — to me, the audience groaned because the joke was pretty played-out. (And, let's be real, it's not that funny!) But, you could also argue that they groaned because people are somehow still upset about this whole non-troversy. What side do you land on? Let us hear all about it in the comments.
