MAGA Women Whine About ‘SNL’ Star Who Played Them Both

YouTube/screengrab Meghan McCain, 41, and Sarah Huckabee Sanders, 44, have alleged that they can take a joke—unless the joke comes from Saturday Night Live .

The MAGA women complained about SNL ’s Aidy Bryant, who played both of them on the show.

Bryant, an SNL cast member from 2012 to 2022, received two Emmy nominations for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series during her tenure on the sketch show.

McCain, the former conservative host on ABC’s The View , has picked random fights with Emmy-nominated actors, while Arkansas governor Sanders, who was Trump’s White House Press Secretary from 2017 to 2019, is so unpopular in her state that her constituents once asked her to leave a local restaurant.

McCain brought up Bryant’s impressions to Sanders, and she and Sanders made clear, again and again, that they didn’t think she was very funny.

“I found her interpretation of both of us to be cruel,” McCain said on her Citizen McCain podcast.

“You see how Saturday Night Live impersonates Democrat women compared to conservative women.

I didn’t find it funny.

I can laugh at myself.

I didn’t find your impersonation funny.

Do you have any feelings about that? Maybe you don’t.

I think maybe it just ticked me off in particular because I felt like both of us were being hit out in a way that I felt like was unfair.” A 2019 parody sketch of The View featured Bryant, playing the Phoenix-born McCain, discussing the U.S.-Mexico border.

“Can I just say something, as the princess of Arizona?” she asked in the skit.

“There is a crisis at the border, and the border is right up in my Arizona, which was founded on sunburnt women selling turquoise jewelry, not rando Mexicans.
