SNL ran a skit tonight w/Tom Hanks as a MAGA racist…he literally recoils when a black game show host reaches to shake hands.

This makes me mad. 
 So wrong — MAGA isn’t racist! 
 SNL knows they can keep pushing these stupid stereotypes for laughs. Sick.

    Tom is looking pretty rough. He must hear the Lolita Island posse closing in.

    Nice.
So now patriots must descend into the same victimhood cellar the left occupy?
Let move on.
The Race Card has expired and their overuse of the Nazi Card will leave them swimming in political debt they can’t pay back.
The left is bankrupt.

    The phrase “MAGA racist” is an oxymoron.
All the racists are on the left.

    Pedo Tom Hanks ain’t going down without a fight, he’ll go down in a blaze of infamy.

    I did not recognize him at all, wondered who it was, and was also puzzled why Eddie Murphy left his spot.
It was such a shallow set-up.

    This is a recreation of a skit from several years ago, also with Hanks. The original was funny. This one fell flat.

    Reminds me of the idiot Meryl Streep dressed up as Trump.

    It looks like a call back to a Black Jeopardy skit from years ago where Hanks as a redneck somehow got picked for the show.
 I spent time watching it so it might already be posted.

    Probably sacrilege to say this but.....I thought Forrest Gump was one of the most boring movies I ever saw.

    Viewers react the same way. He mirrors their audience of trained seals.

    I respectfully disagree. I'll take Norm McDonald's Weekend Update over anything else SNL did. Dennis Miller wasn't too bad. 
 And the fake ads were often funny too. Yard-a-pult and Love Toilet.
