SNL's Robert Mueller breaks up with Trump collusion probe in 'The Bachelor' spoof

Trump loves Russia, but he may not be in collusion with Russia.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller, as portrayed by his “Saturday Night Live” doppelganger, made the tough decision to pursue President Trump on obstruction charges, rather than collusion with the Russian government, to a heartbroken voter’s dismay.

“The reality is that I don’t think I can give you everything that you want right now,” said SNL cast member Kate McKinnon, mashing her Mueller impression with the sought after candidate in ABC’s “The Bachelor.”

The cold open Saturday night depicted the independent prosecutor performing the inevitable breakup from the reality series. The woman vying for his love was replaced with Cecily Strong as a voter longing for Trump’s impeachment. She was under the impression the indictment of 13 Russians and revelations that a secret meeting between a Trump supporter and Russian businessman in Seychelles meant something to their budding relationship.

Mueller broke the news that he was “only half in with collusion” and that he had his mind on prosecuting the President for obstruction of justice instead.

“Collusion is literally the only thing I’ve been looking forward to for the past year,” Strong cried.

The two-camera production followed Mueller and his jilted paramour during the bitter breakup, as the two tried avoiding each other behind the scenes at the SNL studio.

“I’m not going to give you a hug goodbye,” she told Mueller. “I was ready, Bob. I was ready to do the whole damn thing.”

He kept pouring on the bad news.

McKinnon’s Mueller informed his tearful sweetheart that there’s a chance Trump could survive the 2020 political gauntlet, when he’s expected to seek a second term.

“I have to wait two more years for him to be out of office,” she asked, horrified.

“Honestly, probably six,” Mueller replied.

The special counsel warned that if the voter got what she wanted out of their relationship — also known as the Russian probe — her life could spin out of control with Vice President Pence assuming the role as commander-in-chief.

Amid the drama, Mueller slipped a sliver of hope to heal her broken heart.

“If it makes you feel any better, the Kush is cooked and you’re the next Bachelorette,” he added, referencing Trump’s son-in-law and senior White House adviser.
