SNL Cold Open Trolls Katie Britt SOTU Response

As expected, SNL took full comedic advantage of Alabama Sen. Katie Britt’s disastrous Republican response to President Biden’s State of the Union address this week. With Scarlett Johansson serving up a pitch-perfect Britt, she announced she was “auditioning for the part of Scary Mom,” complete with family photos, a faucet, and a fruit bowl on the countertop. “I’m worried about the future of our children. And this is why I’ve invited you into this strange, empty kitchen,” Johansson’s Britt said. Republicans wanted me to appeal to women voters, and women love kitchens.” “Like any mom, I’m going to do a pivot out of nowhere into a shockingly violent story about sex trafficking,” she continued. “Rest assured, every detail about it is real except the year, where it took place, and who was president when it happened.” https://twitter.com/nbcsnl/status/1766689405392109736
