Tom Hanks Gives Us The Pre-Election Pep Talk We So Desperately Need (VIDEO)

Tom Hanks was the host of Saturday Night Live last night, and for his monologue he decided to comfort all of us as the 2016 election draws to a close.

Hanks sat down in a chair and took on the role of “America’s Dad,” reminding us all:

“America is feeling a little nervous these days. And I’m a responsible father, so I thought maybe it’s time we had a little chat.”

Yes, Hanks admitted, the country has endured a “rough year,” but he assured the nation “you’re gonna be fine.”

Finally, the two-time Oscar winner said:

“All I came in here to say is you are great. Go show the world what else you can stuff inside a pizza crust.”

Thank you, Tom. We needed that.
