Meghan McCain: 'SNL' parodies made me feel like 'laughing stock of the country'
The Hill ^ | 10/20/2021 | Dominick Mastrangelo

Posted on 10/20/2021 9:17:13 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Meghan McCain says in a new interview that sketches performed on "Saturday Night Live" mocking her during her stint on ABC's "The View" made her feel like she was "the laughing stock of the country."

"I think partly 'Saturday Night Live' parodies have this way of becoming reality. I’ve seen it so many times with Sarah Palin, Hillary Clinton. The stereotypes of who you are become true. Bush being an idiot. I still think Alex Trebek is someone who celebrities hated. Sometimes the parody is the person, and I think that probably played a factor, too," McCain said during a question-and-answer session with Rolling Stone promoting her new audiobook. "People really loved it when 'SNL' dunked on me, and it was not flattering or kind. And, by the way, they were pretty nice to the rest of the ['View'] cast, just not great to me."

Three things:

Emotions/feelings are often an early warning system. Pay attention, interpret them correctly and remove yourself from the environment or people.

“That which is perceived as real, will be real in its consequences.” Volunteering to be a national punching bag in a quest for celebrity and easy money is on you and your ego.

Dunning Krueger is a terrible thing, especially for blondes.

She and Ben don’t have a king size bed.

They have an emperor size bed.

...and it was not flattering

Even Einstein wouldn't be able to find a way to flatter you, honey.

Honey, you were a parody on The View every day, and got paid for it.

They must be the only ones watching SNL and care what skits they have.

Indeed.

Hey Meg - people become ‘stereotypes’ for a reason.

Why do conservatives even try to be “loved” by the left. This is a fact:

1. the left pretend to not be racist, but they are very racist;
2. the left pretend to no be sexist but they are sexist;

3.they pretend to be welcoming and loving but they hate;

4. the left pretend to be open to new and different ideas but they are as dogmatic as a cult.

Meghan... they hate you because you disagree with them and they will never welcome you because of this fact.

HilLIARy is hard to parody, because she is so unlikeable

Megan has issues when it comes to ‘feelings’.....too dramatic for my taste so I never watched her much. Besides talking about her father, like Biden does his son, gets old after the first soundbite.

You are a laughingstock, Meghan. Now, that your old man is dead you have no currency in Hollywood. They knew you were not talented from the start. Now, you’re on your own. Go out and get a job. I hear we need truck drivers

The Left laughs at her, because they know she falls for their
arguments every time.

The RINOs laugh at her, because she’s anti-Conservative.

Conservatives wince and tell it like it is. She’s an idiot
who hasn’t a clue what the ramifications are of just about
any proposal.

She’s a delusion airhead the media loves to promote.

No wonder...
