These last points are brought up by none other than Trump’s lone Republican challenger, Nikki Haley, who is met with tepid applause (par the course for her).
The hypocrisy of SNL cozying up to Haley in order to bash Trump is so rich as to be sickening. There is zero daylight between the two. Haley’s record is just as full of racist, anti-democratic policy and rhetoric as her former boss’s, she is just outwardly less grotesque. Presenting her as a reasonable alternative to Trump reeks of liberal desperation, and, as with other examples of the show platforming despicable rightwingers – including Trump himself, along with Congressman Dan Crenshaw and Elon Musk – the show is never going to live this down.
