“This show wonders why their ratings are in the gutter. Trump won the popular vote. This tired trope that MAGA is racist is disgusting. SNL is an unfunny show for snobbish liberal elites.

The original sketch had appeared in a 2016 episode of SNL, where Hanks played Donald Trump supporter, Doug. In the scene, Doug wears a MAGA baseball cap and refuses to shake hands with Darnell Hayes, played by Kenan Thompson. He also mentions starting a show 'for you to come on', which he calls 'White Jeopardy'.
