Jack White is the musical guest on this weekend’s Saturday Night Live. Which led to an important question for the show’s promo: who would have been the best match as host?

Woody Harrelson, the actual host, told cast member Chloe Fineman that comic actor/musician Jack Black would have been the natural choice. White/Black, yin-yang, salt-pepper. Such a match, Harrelson claimed, would “bring this country together.”

Jack White wasn’t buying it. He told Fineman to “stop tearing this country apart.”

A grateful Harrelson added, “Thank you, Jack. ‘Bout time somebody stood up to her.”
