Fox & Friends Praises ‘Funny’ SNL Sketch Of Trump Mocking His Rivals: ‘It’s Just Not Looking Good’ For Them

Fox & Friends took an approving view of how Saturday Night Live satirized the third Republican 2024 primary debate by focusing on the reality that Donald Trump remains the party’s frontrunner.

In SNL’s cold open parody of NBC’s GOP debate last week, James Austin Johnson’s impression of Trump crashed the stage and proceeded to make fun of all the candidates hoping to overtake him and become the 2024 nominee. The real Trump has chosen not to participate in any of the primary debates so far, citing his clear polling lead while demanding the party hurry up and consolidate behind him.

Joey Jones appeared to enjoy Johnson-Trump’s roasts, saying “that was good, that was funny” after Fox rolled the clip. He added the caveat “I didn’t see the whole thing. I don’t know where they went after that, but that’s the truth. Donald Trump is the nominee until something changes.”

“The thing is people, get mad at the truth and all you can do is just explain reality,” Will Cain said. As he speculated on whether any of Trump’s rivals can change the current trajectory of the race in the foreseeable future, he arrived at the political reality that “it’s not looking good right now if your name isn’t Donald Trump. It’s just not looking good.”
