Not being a Tina Fey fan (sorry) I didn't think her SNL turn as Noem was a "wow' [View all]

I just don't care for Tina Fey at all. Nothing against her as a human being, just as a "comedic figure," nothing against people who like her. I'm just not one of them. SHe has a vibe, an aura, that just rubs me the wrong way every time I see her. Not my cup of tea. A little too smug and self-satisfied for me.

I think that Noem is so despicable that there's no "humor" for me in her malevolence. From making the beast with two backs with Lewandowski, to Cricket and the goat in the gravel pit, to her endless grifting and cruelty and Trump ass-kissing, I think that finding "humor" in her is far beyond any comedic skills one might believe Tina Fey possesses. Just my opinion. Enjoy, if you will:


‘SNL’ Cold Open: Tina Fey, Amy Poehler Team Up as Drama Queens Kristi Noem, Pam Bondi

After refusing to tell the truth during her swearing-in, the Trump appointee was asked whether her boss directed her to prosecute his political opponents, as a mistakenly public Truth Social post by the president intended for Bondi makes clear.

“Before I don’t answer, I would like to insult you personally: Senator Blumenthal, look at this honky. Even people in Connecticut go, ‘Damn, that guy is white as hell,'” she said to the lawmaker (Mikey Day.) “That is just one of the many roast-style burns I have here on this paper. Don’t make me use them.”

When questioned about whether the FBI found photos of Trump with half-naked young women when they raided sex offender and former Trump pal Jeffrey Epstein‘s property, she replied: “Sir, I’m not even going to dignify that question with a lie.”

Poehler’s character added later: “I tried reading the Epstein files but I got really bored. It’s so repetitive. Trump this, Trump that. Yawn!”
