White House Correspondents’ dinner host Hasan Minhaj hit the connection between President Trump and Russia hard during his set Saturday night.
It started when Minhaj acknowledged the main guest who wasn’t present.
“We gotta address the elephant that’s not in the room. The leader of our country is not here. And that’s because he lives in Moscow,” he said.

And later, Minhaj brought up the fact that Trump does not drink alcohol, yet has a penchant for tweeting at odd hours.
“Who is tweeting at 3 a.m. sober? Donald Trump, because it’s 10:00 a.m. in Russia. Those are business hours.”
