Tom Hanks In Jeopardy Over MAGA ‘SNL’ Skit!!!

Tom Hanks stirred the pot as he stepped into character for ‘SNL’s 50th anniversary special — but his portrayal of a Trump supporter didn’t land well across the board.

The Oscar winner took on the MAGA-hat-wearing role of Doug in a ‘Black Jeopardy’ skit, where his character preached the world would be better if more people went to church.

When game show host Darnell Hayes — Kenan Thompson — went in for a handshake, Doug pulled back, saying, “Don’t like that, whoa, whoa, whoa!”

The outcry also hit that classic MAGA nerve, with many blasting Hollywood stars for getting political, calling them out-of-touch elites who need to stay in their lane.

 

This isn’t Hanks’ first rodeo … he first played the conservative character back in 2016, just before Trump’s first term win, and the skit was pretty popular at the time.

 

Times have changed, even though Doug’s been in the game for a while!
