“He went from doing slurs the left finds upsetting to issuing one out of his mouth the right finds upsetting, which is Bud Light. I’m actually not sure what he’s doing either because not only is he going on ‘SNL,’ but he’s partnering with Bud Light, which is basically a slur in Republican circles.”
