Vladimir Putin calls Sarah Palin to chat about her prediction that he’d invade Ukraine.
Jimmy Fallon set the skit up by reminding viewers about Russian President Vladimir Putin’s phone call to President Obama over the weekend to discuss the Ukraine, noting the little known fact that shortly afterwards he called Sarah Palin, or so the skit goes…
Palin: Hey, this is Sarah.
Putin: Hello, Miss Palin? It’s me. Vladimir.
Palin: Putin, what you doin’ calling me?
Putin: Well, I heard that back in 2008 you predicted that I would invade Ukraine. Is that true?
Palin: You betcha, Vlad.
Putin: I once invaded a country called Youbetchavlad. … Anyway, since you so great at guessing my next move, who do you think I should invade next? I’m thinking Finland, Sweden – I hear Jamaica is nice this time of year.
Palin: My advice to you would be, you get those troops out of Ukraine right now.
Putin: Whoa, Captain Buzzkill. It was joke. But seriously, I could have used your predicting powers in office March Madness pool – my bracket’s totally busted.
And so on…..
