'Saturday Night Live' host Colin Jost ridiculed the former president by showing a number of clips of Trump claiming people had cried over different issues.
The former president said:"When I went to the courthouse, which is also a prison in a sense, they signed me in and I'll tell you, people were crying—people that work there, professionally work there.

Jost has poked fun at Trump's stories about people crying."[The workers] have no problems putting in murderers. They see everybody, it's a tough, tough place. And they were crying, they were actually crying. They said, 'I'm sorry.
Publicly available footage from the courthouse on the day of the arraignment does not appear to show anyone visibly upset or crying although in one viral video a guard can be seen failing to hold a door open for Trump. Jost questioned why the former president claimed people were in tears in the courthouse and other claims Trump has made about people crying.
He said:"In an interview, Trump claimed that New York police and court employees were crying when they arrested him. Why is everyone in Trump's stories always crying?."Jost continued:"So, you're bragging that when people see you, they just like burst into tears. Because it never sounds like excited crying like when teenagers see [South Korean boy band] BTS.Trump's first interview since his arraignment. Tonight at 8PM ET on Fox News.
