Elon Musk Predictably Lashes Out Over Dana Carvey's Mocking Impression Of Him On 'SNL'

Musk was not impressed with the SNL alum's impression of his bizarre antics—and he took to X in a series of tweets to voice his displeasure.

Billionaire Elon Musk predictably lashed out at Saturday Night Live after comedian and SNL alum Dana Carvey returned to the show with a mocking impression of Musk and his now regularly-memed antics at a Trump rally last month.

Musk jumped awkwardly behind then-candidate Donald Trump at the rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, the same area where Trump survived an assassination attempt in July.


Musk's antics proved so weird and ridiculous that Vice President Kamala Harris's running mate Tim Walz jokingly referred to Musk as Trump's "running mate" and said Musk was "on that stage jumping around, skipping like a dips**t," referencing the viral moment.

That moment also provided fodder for the cast of SNL, who mocked their anti-Trump stance in their first post-election episode by pretending they'd supported the president-elect this entire time.

Carvey appeared later during the cold open as Musk, wearing a black MAGA hat that brought to mind the one Musk wore during Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally late last month, where he referred to himself as “dark, gothic MAGA.”

Carvey as Musk said:

“Check it out, dark MAGA. Yeah! But seriously, I run the country now. America’s going to be like one of my rockets that’s super cool and super fun. But there’s a slight chance it could blow up, and everybody dies.”

An annoyed Musk spent time responding to posts on X that referenced the cold open, telling one user:

"SNL has been dying slowly for years, as they become increasingly out of touch with reality. Their last-ditch effort to cheat the equal airtime requirements and prop up Kamala before the election only helped sink her campaign further."

Musk’s remark referenced Harris’s appearance on SNL last week, which Brendan Carr, a Republican FCC commissioner, argued was “a clear and blatant effort to evade the FCC’s Equal Time rule.” This rule mandates that broadcasters provide comparable airtime to opposing candidates.

However, as The Hollywood Reporter noted, an FCC representative clarified that Carr’s statement did not reflect the agency’s official stance, stating that they “have not made any determination regarding political programming rules, nor have we received a complaint from any interested parties.”

Musk also dismissed Carvey's impression, saying Carvey "just sounds like Dana Carvey."

And in yet another post, he asserted that the SNL cast is "so mad that [Donald Trump] won."

But people could see how much the skit bothered Musk and proceeded to mock him mercilessly.

Buckle up, Musk, there will be plenty of impressions of you over the next four years.

CNN Panelist Epically Rips Conservative Pundit After He Tries To Downplay Epstein Files

Podcast host Leigh McGowan criticized conservative CNN panelist Scott Jennings on Monday over his cavalier attitude about the Justice Department's failure to release the Epstein files, calling his response “insane” and “horrifying.”

The DOJ has released less than 1% of the Epstein files. The department acknowledged that it has released just 12,285 documents—totaling 125,575 pages—related to Epstein, even though federal law required the bulk of those records to be made public by December 19.

New Data On How Trump Is Polling With Gen Z Is A Disastrous Wake-Up Call For His Administration

According to the latest polling data highlighted on CNN, President Donald Trump's support among Gen Z voters has fallen considerably—a remarkable shift in public opinion from a cohort whose support proved crucial to his 2024 election win.

Trump's 2024 campaign received a massive boost thanks to the efforts of Turning Point USA's Charlie Kirk, the far-right activist who was assassinated in September. Kirk galvanized the youth vote but those gains have not held steady since Trump entered office.
