Newly elected Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) appeared on NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” and graciously accepted an apology from Pete Davidson, whose classless mocking of Crenshaw last week drew national outrage.
On NBC's Saturday Night Live, Pete Davidson mocks GOP Congressional candidate Dan Crenshaw for losing his eye in war: “You may be surprised to hear he’s a Congressional candidate from Texas and not a hitman in a porno movie. I’m sorry, I know he lost his eye in war, or whatever.” pic.twitter.com/krQwesqLAV

On Saturday, Crenshaw made a surprise appearance on SNL where he accepted an apology from Davidson, roasted him, and then made a final call for unity.
Crenshaw got his opportunity to roast Davidson before he called for Americans to unite, later honoring Davidson’s father, who was a New York City firefighter who died on 9/11.
