Kamala Harris poked fun at Donald Trump‘s garbage truck struggles as she made a surprise appearance on Saturday Night Live just days before America goes to the polls. The vice president, who has been played on the 50th season of the comedy show by Maya Rudolph, flew to New York City on Saturday evening after a campaign event in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Harris made the unscheduled stop while on her way to Detroit, Michigan, with Air Force Two landing at LaGuardia Airport in Queens. It was the final episode of the show before Election Day on Tuesday. She appeared in the show’s cold opening opposite Rudolph’s version of her as the actress looked into a mirror and said she wished she could “talk to someone who has been in my shoes.”

The camera then panned to the reflection in the mirror, where the beaming vice president sat, receiving a huge cheer from the studio audience.
