Elon Musk recently criticized Dana Carvey’s impression of him on SNL, calling it off the mark and suggesting the show has been "slowly dying for years." Meanwhile, SNL’s latest episode featured a skit poking fun at its previous Trump spoofs, with Marcello Hernández joking that everyone on stage "believed in" and "voted for" Trump, adding to the show’s post-election satire.
The segment ended with Dana Carvey’s impression of Musk celebrating Trump’s win alongside the SNL cast. Later that night on X (formerly Twitter), Musk responded to the skit, stating, "SNL has been dying slowly for years, as they become increasingly out of touch with reality."
Elon Musk also criticized SNL for its handling of Kamala Harris' appearance, saying, “Their last-ditch effort to cheat the equal airtime requirements and prop up Kamala before the election only helped sink her campaign further.” This was in reference to a controversy over Harris’ appearance on SNL, which the FCC’s Brendan Carr had falsely claimed violated equal airtime rules. In response, NBC gave Trump free commercial time.
Musk further remarked on Carvey’s impression of him, stating, “Dana Carvey just sounds like Dana Carvey.” He also added, “They are so mad that @realDonaldTrump won,” echoing his frustration with the show’s political stance.
Bill Burr hosted Saturday’s episode, telling the crowd he was “so psyched that this election is over. Took forever.” He added, “Everybody knew who they were voting for four years ago and then they just drag you through a year and a half of this stuff.”
