MAGA Seeing Red over Tom Hanks Skit

Tuesday, February 18, 2025

EJ Montini: The most zealous supporters of President Donald Trump practically broke the internet with maniacal rants protesting actor Tom Hanks' comic portrayal of a guy named "Doug" wearing a Make America Great Again (MAGA) hat during the 50th anniversary show of "Saturday Night Live."

The reason that Hank's parody hit home with MAGA is because there is so much truth in it.

Trump and co-president Elon Musk fired several hundred Federal Aviation Administration employees, many with training in FAA radar, landing and navigational aid maintenance, at a time when airplane safety is a growing concern.

The "growing concern" will only get bigger.

These people are interested in power and in ego, not saving lives.

Guess they missed the first time Hanks played the character in a previous black jeopardy sketch. It was probably the most humanizing portrayal of a MAGAt ever on TV.

Tom Hanks? Did he apologize for his MAGA son yet?

MAGA should be used to being a joke by now... they are naturally ridiculous.

If they weren't so dangerous and unpatriotic, they would be really funny.

I doubt it's very many people. SNL has been picking on MAGA for some time now. Those folks gave up on SNL eons ago.

This is going to be a very hard 4 years.... My advice is to relax and embrace it. Maybe it won't hurt so bad.

Maga is not the majority, roughly 1/3.

244 million eligible 77 million for trump, 75 million for harris.

That leaves 92 million lazy people who didn't vote.

And they don't have a say now, do they? They had a vote and decided not to give it to Kamala Harris... or did they? Maybe, just maybe they didn't exist at all.

@#16 ... I didn't see the skit. ...

Finally admitting the apparent ongoing ignorance of your current alias.

Yeah. This is kind of offensive if we are being honest about it. For those of you not smart enough to pick up on it, really all SNL is doing with this skit is calling MAGAts a bunch of White N------s. (... Now let's hear the hypocritical MAGAts on this thread accuse me of being the one who is racist.)

White N------s.

Oddly enough. That's generally considered a compliment.

Irish Americans have been legally considered white since the first US census in 1790. However, the racial categorization of Irish immigrants changed dramatically in the 19th and early 20th centuries.
Explanation
In the 19th century, most Americans did not consider Irish immigrants to be white.
Irish immigrants were often viewed as interlopers because they were Catholic in a Protestant land.
They were also sometimes referred to as Negroes turned inside out".
Irish immigrants faced mistreatment due to poor treatment from the white establishment, competition for resources, religious differences, and language barriers.
In the years surrounding the Civil War, Irish immigrants became part of a white racial class.
Irish voting solidarity gave them political power, which they used to push African Americans out of lower-class jobs and neighborhoods.

Don't MAGAns call non-MAGA protesters "snowflakes"? Looks as if a MAGA nerve was touched. Who thunk tough, mean, uncompassionate MAGA toughies had their feelings hurt by a satirical skit performed by an Academy Award-winning thespian?

The poor snowflakes!

People yes, MAGAs no. If someone is going to go aroubd in a MAGA hat, yes most people will think he/she is a racist.

bwahahahahaa.....

Even Ben Shapiro said humor is supposed to have some shock value, otherwise it's not humor. I tend to agree.

Get over it, it's a comedy show.
