SNL Mocks Trump, Equates Him With Khamenei, Says Netanyahu Gave Him Permission For War
On Saturday night, less than 24 hours after the United States and Israel launched attacks inside Iran, as the men and women of our military were facing the dangers associated with those ongoing missions, as well as retaliatory missile attacks from Iran aimed at our military bases throughout he Middle East, the twisted minds at NBC's Saturday Night Live decided it would be a great time to attempt to mock our Commander-In-Chief President Trump, and Pete Hegseth, our Secretary of War.
The attack began immediately, during the cold open, with a voiceover reading of what was flashed on the screen. "Last evening at the very normal time of two in the morning, President Trump informed the nation that we were at war with Iran. And now with some further thoughts, President Trump." Does NBC think secret attacks should happen at 9 am?
Next James Austin Johnson’s Donald Trump character took the stage, and under the cover of comedy, gave us exactly what you might expect.
FAKE TRUMP: Good evening and happy World War III to all who celebrate... It's me, Donald Trump, FIFA Peace Prize winner and Nobel Peace Prize taker... I launched this attack after me and my Board of Peace decided that we were bored of peace... As we all know, Iran has been two weeks away from developing a nuclear weapon for like the last 15 years or something. So we had to act now. And we're doing war. War! What is it good for? Distracting from the Epstein files!..
Every Democrat and their affiliated comedians are making Epstein-files wisecracks. They didn't joke when President Clinton went to war in Bosnia right after the Lewinsky impeachment faded away.
Clearly, the NBC crew doesn't think about all our service members putting their lives on the line. It's all a joke, and it continued:
FAKE TRUMP: To all my MAGA voters who are upset and saying, this is not what I voted for. Well, you did. Don't you know who I am? I'm me.. Even I don't know what I'm going to do next... People are asking, why attack Iran now? We had to strike in the early hours of Saturday, which has two advantages militarily. One, it's after the stock market closes for the weekend. And two, it's to cause immeasurable fear, rage and chaos in the SNL writers room....
If you thought that was beyond the pale, it was about to get worse.
The Trump character brought on their fake-news anchor Colin Jost, badly playing Secretary Hegseth with this line, "..Here's the man I'm going to blame it on when it doesn't work. Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth!"
When it doesn't work? Again, while our troops were fighting. Jost came out angry and drinking from a canned beverage.
FAKE HEGSETH: All right, cut the track, cut the track! And relax, this is a Four Loko non-alch (alchohol) What's up, dill weeds? As you probably heard, "Operation Epic Fury" is under way. And as you could tell from the veins of my neck, I'm pumped! .. They asked for someone to volunteer to oversee this half-baked operation, and I didn't walk, I ran...
Trashing the military operation as "half baked"? I guess it wouldn't have mattered if they had seen Trump's Truth Social post the night before. But the worst was yet to come.
FAKE PETE: But don't let my confident demeanor fool you, I am scared and I don't know what I'm doing. When he said we were going to blow up the leader of Iran, I thought he was kidding. And now all day long I've been hearing people saying, why did we do this? What's the reason for this war? Oh, yeah, I actually have the reason right here. It's under my chin, let me get it for you. (gives chin flick) Goodfellas..."
Then the Trump Character reappeared for this not so veiled, borderline dangerous "joke".
FAKE HEGSETH: Bottom line, all of you should be thanking us. We took out a horrendous, horrible leader who was oppressing his own people --
FAKE TRUMP: But don't get any ideas...
Irresponsible to say the least, considering the fears of possible Iran reprisals on U.S. soil, and the recent assassination attempts on Trump.
Later on the show's Weekend Update segment, Jost and Michael Che played a clip of Trump from 2011, fearing that Obama would start a war with Iran. Che then weighed in with, "Detractors on CNN are saying that Trump had no authorization for this war. But he actually did. Netanyahu said it was okay. I can't believe our leader can just attack Iran with no vote, no permission from Congress, or anything. I mean what is this Iran?"
This is not the first time Che has made controversial remarks about Israel, but last Saturday, all of SNL's attacks on our current war effort were simply inexcusable.
