Writers did an outstanding work on this one - constantly had me laughing and the sketch reflected reality very well. Candace Owens went to Britain and told them she has a problem with Arab immigrants having 6 babies per family there and then trying to convince her U.S. viewers that she's not racist. Also Laura on Novak Djokovic: "a name I somehow managed to have an easier time learning how to pronounce than Kamala Harris" lol. SPOT ON sketch. Kate's delivery was an excellent caricature of Laura, too ~ ~

First off that's not what happened. Secondly great to see you support the writers. THE ALMOST ALL WHITE WRITERS that are scared (like you) of a strong black woman stepping "out of line" and not bowing to or serving the racist democrats and their many lies. I mean how dare that girl step out on the party that enslaved, i mean freed her ancestors. Remember she didn't vote for Biden so according to him, SHES NOT BLACK

I was referring to Candace Owen's actual video in the UK, the same one where she got in trouble for mentioning Hitler. If you watch the full video, she says point blank she has a problem with immigrant Arab families having 6 children in the UK and it leading to demographic shifts. Yes, that is racist.

It’s a shame SNL can’t be more even handed with their political skits. Why are they still talking about trump? He’s hardly relevant at the moment. Why are they ignoring the problems of the current President and vp? There’s plenty of material there. At the very beginning of the skit it seemed almost like the only way they can joke about the current government, is by doing it whilst acting as a right-winger. I just think they should be able to mock both sides 🤷🏼‍♀️

@@GoshGus it can apply for teeth, false breast molds, lashes and so on… Yes, language is mutable and it also can be a bit expansive. Beyond that are individual definitions, as Don Miguel Ruiz Jr shared about, from a relationship workshop. He asked a woman to state what one word best described her ideal relationship. She said “stable”. He then had all others write their definitions of stable, hand them in, and then he read them…not a single definition matched!

Stan, you missed the point. A majority of the US population is white. If the population is a certain percentage white and the TV representation is less than that percentage, it's an underrepresentation. And we also see an overrepresentation of "Woke" selections to advance an agenda. You know the truth, GTFOH and argue on Twitter if you're going to be this dishonest.👎

Remember the cold opening on the Owen Wilson episode where he played Joe Biden? And how in the same episode, he also played Larry the Cable Guy and Joe Buck? And how most reviews touted him as the Dana Carvey and/or Darrell Hammond of the current cast (though I see him more as Rick Moranis in his SCTV days, in that, at first glance, he doesn't look like a guy who's gifted at celebrity impressions, but, when you see him in action, you can't believe it)?

I mean, they do. You probably just choose to ignore the Biden jokes because you've been brainwashed into believing they only mock Trump. Hell, the premiere episode this season spent an entire cold open mocking Joe's lack of lucidity and coolness and pointed out how sluggish and mentally fogged he is nowadays compared to when he was Obama's vice president or even the 2016 democratic candidate.

[@bhpictures]

@@vidmasterK1 You using literally the only example so far this season only furthers my point. Biden IS the joke that keeps on giving. His weekly gaffs almost write the jokes FOR SNL, yet they choose to avoid them. The fact that they still use Trump as a plot point more often than Biden only continues to show just out of touch they are with the American people. And their ratings prove that. This is coming from someone who used to like SNL.
