“SNL” blows up cards with a “white lotus” spoofing

“Saturday Night Live” blew “White Lotus” after an absolutely shocking season finale, but with Donald Trump “White Potus” giving him a twist, his unclear tariff development is even skeptical of some of his supporters.
The pre-tape sketch for “SNL” last night begins with Chloe Feynman portraying Melania Trump, but with a southern accent that reflects Parker Posey’s “White Lotus” character, Victoria Ratliff.
This sketch involves Melania trying to get her husband’s attention. It appears she is leaving for another world when dinner is ready. James Austin Johnson’s Trump takes Jason Isaac’s Timothy Ratliffe’s location. The family is plagued by financial problems throughout “White Lotus” season three.
After Trump takes his medication, he makes it for dinner with a chicken nugget from his beloved McDonald – he and his son Donald Trump Jr. (played by Mikey Day, replacing Patrick Schwarzenegger’s Saxon character). Their other son, Eric Trump, also appears, and is portrayed by Alex Moffatt.
During family dinner, Feynman’s Melania becomes a painful speech about the fortune that it is always “a rich and powerful nation,” saying, “I mean, can you imagine America being awful even if no one in the world respects us anymore?”
Of course, she says this because Austin’s visibly offensive Trump reads the headline “Trump causes a global recession.”
Playing Belinda by Rizzo, Natasha Rothwell, who adds dirt to the scratches, checks your bank account to make sure that at some point your bank account has dropped significantly. She screams… “Yeah, my bank account has $5 million. It was $20 million last week!”
Coming closer to the end of the skit, Johnson’s Trump appears to be pointing his gun at Uncle Sam, pleading for his life. Just as he is trying to pull the trigger – by placing a 500% tariff on China – he is awakened to Vladimir Putin, his boy toy, played by Beck Bennett. Close call!
The shocking end of the sketch aims once again at Trump family – showing Don Jr. in bed with Kenan Thompson’s Tiger Woods… All we all know is dating Don Jr.’s ex-wife, Vanessa Trump, in real life.

Of course, this scene pays homage to the jaw-dropping incest story of “White Lotus” between the two Ratliff brothers, Lochlan and Saxon.
“SNL” stopped at “White Potus” and dragged the 47th president of the United States, and Shaw wrote a scene where Donald compares to Jesus.
He growls… “The stock market did Jesus. It died, and it resurrected on the third day. And it died again on the fourth day. Perhaps it won’t come back like Jesus.”
Of course, this skit comes after Trump announced that it would exempt smartphones and computers from 145% tariffs on Chinese products.
It appears that “SNL” has plenty of material to cover for the latest episodes.
