Critics often complain that Saturday Night Live, especially this season, has a decided liberal bend. White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer has called the show mean, and President Trump himself has often referred to SNL as totally biased and not funny. <\/p>\n
SNL largely stuck to the same script last night, featuring one sketch with Alec Baldwin mocking President Trump's leadership skills and another blasting his daughter, Ivanka. Butthe show also tore into liberals in a skit about scientists that have figured out a way to communicate to a lovable bulldog named Max. <\/p>\n
\"I like Trump. He's my man,\" Max tells the shocked scientists, including his owner Helen (portrayed by host Scarlett Johansson), who thinks there must be a glitch. <\/p>\n
Theres no glitch. Donald Trump is our president, Max says. He carried the Electoral College fair and square. <\/p>\n
As her team of horrified scientists try to fix the problem, Johannson scolds Max, telling him hes just a dumb dog that doesnt know anything. <\/p>\n
Excuse me, Helen, but yes I do, Max shoots back. Its that condescending attitude that made people want to vote for Trump in the first place. <\/p>\n
You just assume that because Im a Trump supporter that Im a xenophobic racist, Max says, pointing out that Johannson hasnt invited a single black person into their apartment. <\/p>\n
Johansson mentions that Maxs best friend is a Chihuahua, and reminds the dog that Trump wants to deport Mexicans. <\/p>\n
If Aquino was born here, he has nothing to worry about, Max says. This is a nation of laws. <\/p>\n
Upset and angered by Maxs opinion of Trump, cast member Cecily Strong, who played an executive in charge of the project, bluntly tells Johanssons scientist, Youre dog is a monster. <\/p>\n
Watch: <\/p>\n
