Hey, that looks a little familiar, as long as you remember Saturday Night Live from just over 30 years ago…

Schumer might have missed a line in the speech transcript he was provided.

Nothing like a little awkwardness from Sen. Schumer.
Someone needs to gif that Schumer attempted clap IMMEDIATELY 😂

Do you suffer from premature applause? https://t.co/tQBmp7NA53

“If your premature applause lasts more than four hours, call your doctor.”
