Tom Hanks leaves Trump supporters furious following ‘SNL 50’ sketch: ‘He insulted me and 77 million other viewers’

Tom Hanks has found himself at the center of controversy after reviving his “Black Jeopardy” character, Doug, on Saturday Night Live’s 50th anniversary special.

Doug — a clueless, MAGA hat-wearing Trump supporter — was first introduced in 2016, intended to highlight both the differences and unexpected similarities between Trump voters and Black culture.

But when SNL and the Hollywood icon brought Doug back for the star-studded anniversary celebration, many Trump supporters weren’t laughing.

Instead, they blasted Hanks and SNL, accusing them of peddling a tired and divisive stereotype, especially in light of Trump’s recent gains with diverse voters and his popular vote victory in the 2024 election.
