I don't know much about Katie Britt, but she seems to represent the modern Republican MAGA cult.
TaiwanIsNotChina
Republican's women's platform delivered from a kitchen. You can't make this stuff up.
Strangerland
Her retort was strange, as her body language didn't match her tone, or what she was saying. She had this weird smile through the whole thing, but her voice sounded like it was about to crack into tears, while she spoke of her version of the apocalypse. It came across as disingenuous.
Strangerland
Which, it turns out, didn't happen during Biden's presidency...
Cards fan
Call it what it is: A complete and total lie.
It didn't happen in America, and didn't happen while Biden was president.
dagon
Britt personified the trad-wife, prosperity gospel preaching mega-church going MAGA mom, and that was the point.
They are those "Karens" who are rightly lampooned but Trump is trying to solidify some female support and they do have a cohort on social media. Like all of MAGA and Britt's example it is illogical and emotional theater.
Trying to link sex-trafficking to the "Dems" is also very Q-Anon adjacent but that is a MAGA given.
starpunk
Haven't we seen this charade before? This sounds like one of those political 'gimmick' ads that were used in the 50's: 'Oh, I'm just like you'. 'I'm one of you'.
Pretty lady. Check.
Her youth. Check.
Rising 'star'. Out nowhere. Check.
In a simple suburban home kitchen (maybe). Check.
Nice middle class green shirt. Check.
Christian cross around her neck. Bigtime check. Need I say why?
But she's talking bone headed trash like that oh-so-dumb-and-discredited Sarah Palin. Gads, what an idiot.
I dunno about 'crazy' but like Sarah Palin she sure is stupid.
And I'm grossly sick-and-tired of hearing about that made up 'border crisis'. There is NO 'invasion'! There never was. These Orwellian idiots know nothing about our Armed Forces and police and they ain't got the guts to do the job and see for themselves! I am SICK of all that bullcrap, haven't we learned anything from the Cold War? I wish for God's sakes these idiots would shaddup and start tackling the urgent issues, like punishing that Quisling Don and his MAGAt violent cult.
John
Thanks Katie for giving SNL some good material.
Lies about when, where and who, a delivery that was described as a “mixture of Freshman high school drama meets adult video acting”, and a Fatal Attraction vibe.
Yeah, that’ll win back women who’ve lost their bodily autonomy.
House of Cards writers couldn’t make up anything this bonkers.
bass4funk
I think JT had to look hard and long for this article, pretty much every other article on the conservative side gave her glowing reviews, of course the left won’t like it, but we already knew that, nothing new.
John
LOL, no, they didn’t. It was a freak show and conservative commentators across media said as much.
To be fair, she was the more literate of the Senators from the “great” state of Alabama,
Bob Fosse
Finnirst thing I’ve seen in ages. I liked the part where she criticized Biden for not banning TikTok. She didn’t get the maga memo, TikTok is good now 45 is getting that Yass coin gravy.
bass4funk
Well, she is, believe me, there are millions of young conservatives and traditionalists who work, provide for their families, and are not in the streets wasting their time screaming and defacing property and terrorizing the cops or communities
What? Interesting, now if a conservative made the exact same observations you have made they would have been called, a sexist..hmmm
And?
And that kind of talk pushes a lot of women to vote Republican.." trash?" With all the mounting problems the Dems are facing, I would be very careful to call anyone trash or derogatory words, those are potential voters.
Her resume and Bank account net worth say otherwise
Being from California, the only made-up thing is that the left TRIES to tell us its made up, but we SEE the images and HEAR the border patrol agents say a different thing, so If I have to choose to believe this admin, with already an abysmal record when it comes to telling the truth thousands of miles away long the East Coast over the men and women that patrol the border, yeah, I'll listen to them and the people living along the borders, its kind of logical for most of us.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13155151/border-patrol-biden-kamala-harris-migrants.html
7.2 million illegals is not an invasion? Even Mexico calls it an invasion because they pass through their country to get into the US. Adams says it's an invasion, San Francisco, Chicago, they are ll getting concerned and rightfully so, they created this mess.
https://www.azcentral.com/story/opinion/op-ed/philboas/2024/02/16/democrats-suozzi-run-border-lose-trump/72627174007/
Wait, Armed Forces and the police are comprised of liberals only? Oh, boy...ROFL
Well, a lot of people along the border are doing the job that Biden won't do.
https://www.azcentral.com/story/opinion/op-ed/philboas/2024/02/16/democrats-suozzi-run-border-lose-trump/72627174007/
Well, we are sick and tired of the Fed government not doing anything about the border, but as the article says, this is a losing issue for the Democrats, in fact, this is the number one issue for America and the Dems inaction continues to help Trump because and in the end, it doesn't matter what the left or Washington is trying to force-feed the public, they don't believe this admin when it comes to the border.

bass4funk
They did though
Yeah, you're kind of reaching now, but there's no slurpee left though.
Or New York, California without a doubt and to be fair.
lincolnman
SNL nailed it for the complete freak show it was...
This is how MAGA-world thinks it can influence educated suburban independent woman - by telling them to stay in the kitchen, barefoot, and pregnant...
And the immigration scare tactics wear pretty thin when Repubs sank a bill that would have added $200 million to border security, curtailed asylum, and even built more of their "unfinished wall"...
Notice she said nothing about a woman's freedom over her own body...the No. 1 issue for these voters...except to try to fix the outrageous Alabama Supreme Court decision...
The sex-trafficking story was a clear lie - but really the whole speech was just a string of lies...
They would have done better sending out Mitch McConnell and having him freeze up...
Paustovsky
The whole thing was so badly thought out and executed it was obvious she was sent out to take a hit instead of the rancid cowards with any so-called authority in the GOP.
dagon
Word.
Tommy Tuberville's response made Britt look like one of the more self-aware and less cognitively-challenged of the MAGA clan.
https://newrepublic.com/post/179701/tommy-tuberville-sotu-response-katie-britt-housewife
bass4funk
No one said that.
No one believes, not one person except for the Pinheads in DC. And with the abysmal track record this admin has, you would be a fool to believe them when it comes to sealing the border, 3 and a half years, first you controlled all 3 branches, then you erased all of Trump's border policies, Myorkas allowed millions of illegals to come in under your orders, sent billions of US taxpayer dollars to Ukraine, a country no one knew or cared about, let alone have a long-standing history with again and again and now you want more money for Americans when Americans were begging you to do something? Nope, seal the border completely, no more illegals, increase the border patrol at most sensitive points of entry, do that and I would be willing to add a few more million to give to Ukraine, don't do it, no money.
No, immigration is.
https://cis.org/Arthur/Gallup-Immigration-Surges-Top-Americans-Concerns
*On March 3, the Wall Street Journal released the results of its latest poll of 1,754 registered voters, conducted between February 21 and 28.*
It revealed that “immigration” will be the most important issue on voters’ minds when they head to the ballot box in November, the choice of 20 percent of respondents, up from 13 percent in the same poll conducted two months before.
Immigration switched positions with the “economy” — the biggest issue for 14 percent of respondents in the latest poll compared to 21 percent in December — as voters’ number-one electoral concern. As the Journal noted, this is “a rare instance of any issue topping the economy as most prominent on voters’ minds”.
*Gallup.** The results of that poll were released on February 27, with 28 percent of respondents identifying “immigration” as “the most important problem facing this country today”. That puts the issue in first place out of 15 topics polled, solidly beating out “government” (20 percent), the “economy in general” (12 percent), “inflation” (11 percent), and “crime” (3 percent).*
Myorkas saying the border is secure was the biggest lie of the century
Or Biden
wallace
Britt had peddled “debunked lies”.
stormcrow
SNL covered it hilariously in a skit.
lincolnman
*But the story immediately prompted questions about timing and other details. Britt spokesperson Sean Ross confirmed to the Associated Press that *the lawmaker was speaking about an account from a woman who was sexually assaulted in Mexico, not the United States. She was also attacked from 2004 to 2008, more than a decade before Biden was president.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/katie-britt-addresses-questions-trafficking-202254322.html
So in a speech that was a rebuttal to the current President, she blamed him for a sex-trafficking incident that didn't even occur in the US, and happened during Repub George W. Bush's term...
Welcome to MAGA-humiliation...
Express sister
So she’s a brazen liar and can’t win on actual issues, so she just makes things up and attributes her own party’s myriad failures to her opponents with no evidence.
She’ll go far in the GOP.
lincolnman
That Repub leadership, which knew how important this rebuttal speech was, either permitted or was just oblivious to this clear sex trafficking lie and fabrication means two things...
One - they're so clueless, incompetent, and stupid that they didn't even fact-check the speech draft beforehand...
Two - they knew it was a lie and deliberately left it in...
I'd say it was a combination of both...and it tells Americans very clearly who to vote for in Nov...
Blacklabel
The left sure does love attacking women these days.
whatever makes “snl” relevant for 5 minutes, I guess.
Strangerland
No, just loser republicans. This one just happens to be a woman.
John
That was really cringy. Like “take a shower and scrub hard” cringy.
So, totally on-brand for MAGA.
wallace
She is an elected representative and subject to criticism like all others. If you can't stand the heat, you shouldn't be in the kitchen.
Bob Fosse
So tone deaf.
bass4funk
You don’t know that, no one challenged her to a debate. I’m for it though, when talking about lies, this woman could pound anyone repeatedly over and over again on lies
Yeah, I think you’re looking at it through skewed goggles, not unusual for the left, deny, push people to believe, rinse and repeat 4X.
Oh, I think so!!!
Bob Fosse
Scarlett Johansson is a woman.
Express sister
We do. She said that a woman was sex trafficked at the border thanks to Joe Biden. It actually took place when the Republican George W Bush was President (and one of your favourites, I recall) and was nowhere near the border.
She lied. And like all MAGA zombies, you’re eating it up.
starpunk
That unrest in 2020 was started up by Spankee Don, screaming 'LIBERATE!' everything from the Covid lockdown. That spiraled out of control fast and because of the rioting and looting that people of every persuasion did, we got 2 million sick and died from Covid. But his immature screaming started the entire ball rolling and his militia turds tried to start a 'race war' that America doesn't want.
This is sarcasm. Her appearance has all these traits to appeal to the dumb and uninitiated. It's all pre-fab. An Eminence Front. A put-on. Posing.
Just like Sarah Palin posing in front of a stars-and-stripes billboard with her hands in a prayerful pose and a goofy grin; and Saddam Hussein pretending to pray on an Islamic prayer rug on that 1991 Gulf war videotape. Jesus warns in the Bible about fakes like that who love to be noticed. An Eminence Front. A put-on.
Being Republican doesn't make you stupid. Kissing Trumpian butt like a robot does. Real Republicans like Bob Dole, John McCain, George Bush, Ronald Reagan are spinning in the graves CCW right now. George W Bush is probably shaking his head and conservative commentator George Will is probably barfing right now.
What did PT Barnum say? I have a deed to choice farm land on Enceladus, moon of Saturn to sell you too.
In 1992 there was in my hometown paper alone a 'story' about George Bush and some old woman (pic on the right) having a tryst. Just because Bill Clinton is a philanderer doesn't mean that George was, folks.
How can anybody 'help' trump with anything when he just screams like an arrogant little tin god who just filled his diapers? He never asks for 'help' in anything, he's so damn unsociable and egotistical, you can't deal or bargain with an uncouth loudmouth lunkhead lout like him who screams all the time and won't listen to anyone. He stole money from all departments to start construction on his unnecessary Berlin-ish ego project with no concern for property rights or Native American issues (like the Organ Pipe Cactus Park on Apache land in Arizona). And is kidnapping ethnic children, placing them in diseased overcrowded concentration camps where they were beaten, starved, raped, sterilized- yeah, that's how you 'stop' an 'invasion', huh? Nazi Germany did that, Francoist Spain did that, fascist Argentina did that. Ask Pope Francis, he knows. Those pigs made him an 'internal exile' prisoner there back in the day.
The number one issue foe America is to punish that scowling hateful quisling trump and his racist unamerican cult. I served in the military during the Cold War under a Republican President and am proud of it. I was elated to see Communism fall in Eastern Europe in 1989.
But I never ever ever thought in my born days that America would ever come under the control of a screaming Caligula fascist swine who claims to be the 'Chosen One' and thinks incest, rape, and other immoral things are OK and alright. And he openly kisses up to Putin too, he's on Vladimir's leash. Was he going to give him those Top Secret documents he stole by the crateload?
I entered the Navy about 40 years ago. I never would've imagined any of these things in my wildest dreams. What a nightmare we've had lately!
bass4funk
You spoke with her? Debated her? When?
Ok, Biden said, the border is secure, they both lied, now what?
Biden just went to the border for the first time in 3 years and only when Trump announced he was going, and your point?
Says the people that listen to Biden’s Pinocchio’s, give me a break
bass4funk
And more died under Biden in total
Then why is Trump crushing Biden in almost every poll?
Most women nowadays (rightfully so) won’t see it like that.
Again, she is doing fine, financially and politically.
To you, not to 74 million and growing
And that’s ok, the Democrat party that was once the party of Kennedy is no more as well. Dems have embraced more socialism, more for the rich and the GOP for the working class and a huge emphasis on the 1st and 2nd Amendment. This is not 1963 or 1984-92 different world, different times and different problems. I for one, love the American first agenda. I’m not a globalist by any stretch of the imagination.
We like it, we like that he’s after the establishment. Good!
Number issue is to get him re-elected and retire Biden.
First Trump has nothing in common with Caligula any more than Mickey Mouse has with Aquaman, not sure why…anyway…
Coming from a media and military family, I would have never guessed this would happen to my country as well, but here we are.
bass4funk
This administration??
How?
And he shouldn’t, the funny thing is, the Dems thought they had him and oops, nope, slipped their silly nooses again. Lol
Redtail Swift
@Bass4funk
You don't speak for the American people. You are 1 vote and one opinion only.
Oh and no more fake AI images with black people. No POC is voting for a clearly racist candidate such as Trump.
Blacklabel
Ben Carson is. Tim Scott is.
Clarence Thomas is.
Blacklabel
He got 8% of the Black vote and 30% of Hispanic last time.
even more this time.
are these people not “of color”, Joe?
So no, he isn’t racist even if white liberals try to claim so.
bass4funk
I never said that I did.
74 million is one vote? Your math is a bit off there....
What, I have no idea what you are talking about, but I will say this, Biden is definitely starting to lose some of the black vote and that is a fantastic thing, finally waking up.

A useful contrast for sociopath incompetence vs. what Biden offers.

This "European" does.
Express sister
Thank you for admitting, at last, that she is a liar.
bass4funk
Whoa, I never said, nor claimed such a thing, that is what the left thinks, fine, I just made that comment to be fair the left can't and shouldn't call anyone a liar when their own track record regarding the truth is abysmal.

The photo of her peaching from the kitchen is worth a thousand words by the MAGA supporters.
